    Not so new--Sorry

    Hello to all.
    i realize now I should have done this first. My name is Angela Fattig,Angie. I live in St Joseph,Mo with my 2 kids,husband and 2 dogs. I am a stay at home mom and a dog rescue/placement. I am not a not for profit but I am hoping one day someone will believe in me and what I do to donate to help me reach that level. Right now i run off very small donations and donations from Pedigree. I know I have had some disaggrements with a few people on here and I am sorry. I should have introduced myself first. So now I will tell you how I run my rescue/placement.
    I live in a house without a fence right now so I will only tak in small dogs. Larger dogs I have the owner foster or I try and find someone to foster. i have a contract, phone interview and adoption fee. I will travel some to take a dog to a person or family, if I need to do that I will add gas to the adoption fee. In the last 2 yrs I have adopted out about 30 dogs and placed 60. Which by the way are all still doing very well. All dogs are fixed or will be fix in 7 days per contract. That also helps detremin the adoption fee. Most of the time the adoption fee is just what i paid when I traveled to pick up the animal. If it is brought to me then I charge what I put into the dog. So far I have had no problems at all.
    Well I have made this very long. Feel free to contact me if you would like to know more. I also take requests for animals and look for the right one for you.
    Again I am sorry I didnt do this first..

    Even though you aren't new- I think it is really good you do what you can to help the dogs that are less privleged than the dogs that belong to the owners on this site!

    Thanks! I would have to part agree. There are some on here that I dont think can be trusted but the others are great people. Some read a post and assume too much and come off as being a know it all instead of asking the right question the first time. Thats how many fights start. We tend to forget we are here for the dogs not to fight.

    What a great thing you are doing and how exiting you have helped out at least 90 dogs! Do you want to have a facility somewhere down the line?
