[Gpdd] [GPDD] Misc: Florida Roll Call!

[DFHAKES at aol.com]

Everything is fine here in Tampa!  I'm on the DART team and the only  help 
that has been requested is that one of our large local shelters is taking  in 25 
dogs to make room for storm-stricken animals.  
 
The worst of the storms hit a very, very large retirement community called  
The Villages.  Typically most mobile homes get destroyed but I also saw  where 
some of the newer, sturdier homes in the Villages got nailed.
 
Several years ago, there was a similar tornado incident a bit farther south  
to this week's storm.  They had the search and rescue dogs in a mobile home  
park.  They were finishing their work when one of the dogs went on  alert.  
They dug thru the rubble and found a little guinea pig.  Let's  send good 
thoughts to the search and rescue dogs working this weekend.

"It doesn't matter what the  kids say. Rabbits are not disposable like a box 
of cereal or a Disney video.  They WILL get tired of the rabbits and go on to 
the next toy. YOU will have to  deal with the consequences. Unfortunately, 
most people deal with the situation  by DUMPING their rabbits on someone else. 
Ultimately, it is the bunny that pays  for your inability to say NO."
