My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

URGENT--PLEASE SAVE BLACKIE FOR CHRISTMAS, SO HE WON'T BE EUTHANIZED! BLACKIE is a Black Lab and Border Collie or small Shepherd cross. We've run out of space and foster homes. At the animal shelter Blackie seems very lost and confused. And it looks like his owner was older and unable to have a dog anymore, leaving Blackie at the mercy of family members who abandoned him, we discovered.
Blackie spent a week at nice people's home but they had to leave for a prolonged trip and could not keep him.

BLACKIE is around 7 years old, healthy, looks in good shape, active and agile and neutered.
Blackie is ok with other dogs (more likely females). He can be a bit defensive around other male dogs, or if put loose in other dogs' territory. Blackie just seems better with girl dogs. We are located in Los Angeles.

Please consider adopting an adult pup, so you can make him a happy pup again!
More photos are available. For more information about BLACKIE, please contact: theanimalsleftbehind@socal.rr.com (also our PayPal email address for donations and sponsorships)

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

After completing an adoption application, speaking by telephone, and coming to see our pet (if qualified), we will visit your home. If qualified, we bring our pet for a two week trial period with an application and contract.

Go meet their pets

Our adoptable pets are boarded at kennels, veterinarians, foster homes and our friends' and family's homes. We sometimes also take part in Best Friends and Animal Planet adoption events. We recommend calling us to discuss your adoption needs. If it sounds like you would be happy and the pet would be happy, we can arrange for everyone to meet.
See our organization's info about our plans to purchase our dream animal sanctuary and humane education center---but not without your help.

More about this rescue

The Nature Network Inc. is a 501c3 non-profit no-kill federal tax exempt organization, publicly supported and existing entirely with the generous help of animal loving people. 100% of all donations are used directly for rescued animals. No expensive advertising, so salaries, no human "expenses".

We rescue mainly special-needs and senior dogs, cats, horses, other domestic pets, birds, and wildlife, mostly on their last day of life from Los Angeles area pounds, and we work with local wildlife rescue organizations to save wildlife and birds (injured or orphaned). We love animals very much, and feel there can never be enough help for all animals in need, or enough loving homes or enough birth control for the domestic ones.

We are currently seeking grants, donors and sponsors to purchase the animal sanctuary and education center we have found for the Nature Network in the Valley area of Los Angeles.

We are preparing to again produce and host a previously award winning television show about the rescue and protection of domestic and wild animals and preservation of natural habitats.

More information to come soon. Our website, www.thenaturenetwork.org is currently under re-design, and will be up and active soon.
