Just kidding. While I do not own any rescue dogs my self I do know they can make great family members. Here is my wife , and my self with a few of our new friends. I'm in front of the cell door,my wife is at the top of the stairs.

We have teamed up with a no kill shelter and a max security prison here in Mo. to hopefully make a few dogs a little more likely to be adopted. By the 4th week 6 of 8 dogs have new homes lined up. The inmates are keeping close track in daily logs of the dogs strong and weak points,should be much better than walking into a kennel and saying I like that one its cute or I think this one likes me I'll take it. The dogs will leave potty trained,basic obedience trained, spayed or neutered,worm free up to date on all their shots $150.00 This my friends is a good deal for all. Especially the dogs. If you are not looking for a dog their are ways you can help The contact numbers are in the link. (
