UPDATE: April 29, 2008

Bill Craig stopped at the shelter on April 10th. WCBI News interviewed Bill. As far as we know, Bill has made it into Alabama. We wish him the best of luck into Georgia and thank him for his efforts to help those who cannot speak for themselves.

The Dallas To Dallas Ride For Wet Noses is a fund raising effort of Bill Craig to raise money for humane societies & shelters along his route from Dallas, Texas to Dallas, Georgia and to raise awareness of overcrowding in animal shelters nationwide.

In order to properly care for the animals at the Starkville shelter OCHS is in constant need of certain items. Other (larger) items will provide OCHS volunteers the resources necessary to properly feed, bathe, examine, and medicate the animals. Remember, all of your gifts are tax deductible.

If you live in town and want to report stray animals for pick-up, please call Starkville Animal Control at 323-4134, or if you live outside city limits, you can call the County Sheriff's office at 323-2421.

For membership and volunteer information, please email Diane Wall at dew1@ps.msstate.edu.
