Yes, even if this needs to be deleted in the near future, there should be no problem with it being up tonight. It's just nice that someone is concerned about this and I'm glad you posted it.

I'll pray that they find a boat! If I was there, I'd gladly help. Please keep us informed.

Wondering what happened to those animals. I have a small flat bottomed boat but I'm in Mass. so that is no help. If I could've, I would've. I think what they did for the pets this time with Gustav was great. We still have oodles of pitbulls from NO and Katrina up here. No one in their right mind wants a pitbull. I feel so sad for these dogs. I wish people would stop breeding them and people would stop buying them for nefarious reasons.

I'm wondering what happened to them too (I wasn't the one who needed it, I just saw it on another board). I hope they were ok. It's horrible to think about.

Jammie thanks for leaving it up! :-D

In Livingston Parish where Denham Springs in, there are plenty of flat bottom boats. I am sure they had to have found one. If you don't own one in Livingston Parish, you know someone who does...
