----------------------
PROTEST - We have people in the area interested in forming a protest at Riverside Animal Shelter this Saturday, Oct 30th. If you are interested in attending - please comment below and/or reach out! rhiannonmtaylor@gmail.com
Riverside Shelter (main) address:
6851 Van Buren Boulevard
Riverside, California 92509
----------------------
SHELTER TRANSFER - If you know of any specific shelters (ideally on the west coast) that are NO KILL and NOT CROWDED - please comment below the Shelter name. We are also working on an attempt to transfer some of these dogs if possible. Canada is a possibility too! Open to any options.
----------------------
If you live in the area you can save a dog’s life by FOSTERING or ADOPTING. The local rescues are overloaded and cannot save these dogs without viable fosters.
PUBLIC SHELTER HOURS 1:00-3:30pm (MON - SAT)
If you live out of state, you can still PLEDGE / DONATE*** money to a reputable rescue and SHARE posts with rescue groups & your community. Sharing is FREE.
PLEASE follow and support these accounts! Current euth listed dogs at Riverside are posted via these accounts (foster, adopt, donate, share):
@iloverescue ***Civilian sharing videos of shelter dogs in her free time - does not work for the shelter.
https://www.facebook.com/savingriversideshelterdogs/
***Please donate or pledge directly on social media posts or to rescue groups listed out in the petition. Please comment on posts if you are available to FOSTER and we can connect you with a local rescue group.
If you click any links to donate through change.org you are only promoting the petition and not donating directly to the animals.
----------------------
Please continue to share with the community, media, and contact the government reps to put more pressure for change!
We need more people to speak up and share this!
THANK YOU!
