YOU CAN HELP BY CROSSPOSTING THIS MESSAGE http://www.ericsdogblog.blogspot.com/

People may have noticed there are no updates to this Blog since Fri.
This is because Eric's group is overwelmed and begging for volunteers.

See NOLA post below from someone who spoke to him Sunday midday.

If you are thinking of volunteering, don't wait for the OK from Eric. His phone mailbox is full.
Post on NOLA.com pet rescue forum for latest info on where to go, how to get in, and someone is sure to help you accomplish it.

If you are a vet or tech, you are needed.

12275. Gonzales & Eric's Pits Update
by WillowLu, 9/18/05 13:21 ET
Just hung up with Eric. Things are on the move. They sponstaneously evac from YMCA to A/C truck stop. They're on route now.

His people have reached a breaking point, going for a couple of days but may or may not be able to take any more. DESPERATE FOR REINFORCEMENTS. ANY VOLUNTEERS CAN GET IN. ONLY REQUIRES A "CAN DO ATTITUDE."

Something to be done at Gonzales for anyone who wants to help:

Specifically over the last 2 days they've instituted a new requirement for volunteer credentials issued by HSUS.

Go to 6 am meeting at Gonzales

Not much required.

Piece of paper issued 7 pm.

And you're off and rescuing.
