(From Wayne's team) Please note the date April12 has bee change to April 19.

Lindsey Renee's avatar

I’ve signed up everywhere I can find to sign up - but I haven’t revived any information about what we should do to be part of the April 19 rescue - when will we be told what to do?

Susan Repp's avatar

Either go directly to Wayne's page or savethedogs.io

Alissa's avatar

When will information be sent to us?

Lindsey Renee's avatar

I can still do April 19th but I haven’t received any info about what to do or where to go after signing up in every place possible that I could find…

Critter Jones's avatar

And just like that, you casually crush 1,300 people's well-made plans. 😡⁉️😢

Critter Jones's avatar

Wow, Wayne. That's great, but *1,300 of us* had already made arrangements to come and help you on the date that we had originally planned on. I can't believe you just pulled the rug out from under all of us. Time off work, hotels, airbnbs, child care, pet sitters, car rentals... many of these these arrangements had already been made by many of us. The choice of the date of this operation is extremely rude, but I still wish you the best, of course. Good luck.

It’s about what’s best for the situation, not your lifestyle.

It was not done out of “rudeness”. If anything, it gives people MORE time to make their plans. Negativity doesn’t help anyone. The dogs need HELP; come if you can find a way, and don’t make the assumption that other people can’t change their plans…not everyone feels like you do!

So sorry how it turned out 🤦🏽‍♀️ was so unbelievable ugh 😩 But I believe the dogs are going to be saved. We just have to keep calling and bugging them kindly explaining that it’s not stealing it’s rescuing there is a difference between stealing and rescuing they are not a thing they are a life that are being abused horrifically and we were just rescuing them so they don’t have to suffer any more. I believe something going to give they will be saved 🙏🏽

What happens when everyone gets there and theyve moved the dogs, secured the place even moreso etc? Do you have a backup plan for whether or not this place hides the dogs or makes it so you absolutely cannot get to them?

Olivia Leekam's avatar

Has anyone received info yet? Thanks!

Dean Guzman Wyrzykowski's avatar

Can’t wait to go back and rescue the rest of the pups!

Kate Altum's avatar

Did the whatsapp link get sent out ...I didn't get it.

Alissa's avatar

I’m wondering this also

Jody F's avatar

Do you think Ridglan will have “beefed up” security around the facility after the first rescue?

Dean Guzman Wyrzykowski's avatar

Yes. But they won't be able to stop 1000+ rescuers.

Miriam Schiro's avatar

So sorry it didn’t work out this time but I have faith something is going to give 🙏🏽

Walt Svirsky's avatar

Right on, Wayne. Great plan, now let’s execute it.

Dani Dennenberg's avatar

I must be there. Already making arrangements for cat care, finding a sub for my wildlife rehab volunteer shift, calling out sick that following Monday and looking at flights. I’ve got family and friends in Milwaukee (and my birth town) who would maybe willing to help with transportation and lodging. I’ll wait for today’s call.

I am hoping for a great turnout -These pups are so deserving !!!!

Marsha Domesick's avatar

Here in Florida - sharing, donating, texting, calling ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Emily's avatar

I’m committed to this! Where do the dogs go once they are rescued? I’m new to this story and organization and eager to learn how they will find their forever home. Thanks for your awesome work!

Wayne Hsiung's avatar

We have a rescue team that vets people and places them at humane societies and homes across the Midwest and nation!

Emily's avatar

That’s so amazing! Looking forward to joining the call this afternoon to learn more!

AudraAnn's avatar

I missed the zoom call. Any info on how I can help, please feel free to message me. I want to participate in the rescue. Thank you.

Cynthia M's avatar

Can you replay the Zoom call? I missed it.

Nicole Corrado's avatar

I can not come out to Washington, I don’t have a passport to come to the USA. But can anyone come to Baie Durfe Québec? The International Toxicology Laboratory has Ridglan dogs and plenty of other dogs there.

Brenda pollack's avatar

I’ve been working to release beagles from Texas A&M for a year. I live in central NYS, not so far from Quebec, maybe I can help there in some way, let’s chat after Ridgplan, DM me to connect.

Mary Jane's avatar

Is there an application process for potential adopters? I'm in the Chicago area.

Laurie Feela's avatar

I hope to apply in July. Thank you for saving them!

Lynne Murphy's avatar

May the ocean be parted for you! 🙏

Amanda Coleman's avatar

Let's do this again!!! Until every cage is empty!!!

Alexis's avatar

Please save the poor babies. I’m new to this and I cried so hard yesterday. Thank you to everyone who helped rescue the 22 beagles!

Michele Breiby's avatar

I am 1000% percent in !!! And I am recruiting my close friends and family!! Let’s rescue them ALL!!

Love this Watching from the UK

I hope someone reads this that has influence of some type. Next time, be smart about your mission. ~~ split up and Leave in different cars and on motorcycles 🏍 🏍 that go off road and take different roads and paths. . Taking different paths going to your final destination Will at least give some pups a chance to live and not be returned back. The police will be waiting just as before. Be smarter next time. Think thos out

lynn z's avatar

There is only one road out. We have organizers with both history of the facility and history of rescue on-board.

mjay_00's avatar

I will make every effort to make it from Arizona! Is Dane County Airport close to the farm?

mjay_00's avatar

Thank you! Hopefully out of town folks will be able to link up and maybe carpool from the airport 🙏🏽

Allie's avatar

Yes 40 minutes. A town next door to this facility is Mount Horeb Wisconsin. There are two different places to stay there, a hotel and a small inn.

Brenda pollack's avatar

Driving 1k from the northeast, you can do it!

mjay_00's avatar

Brenda ?! I just realized this was you lol there are no accidents 🥰

Kayla Dussliere's avatar

Madison airport closest. Many will car pool to destination. Join and reach out

mjay_00's avatar

See you there 🙌🏽

Natalie Carney's avatar

Nicole Corrado's avatar

Check if you have a lab in your area and figure something out locally.

I have been signing the same petitions for almost 40 years (since I was a teenager) and have watched the same global animal rights organizations talk a big game and raise a lot of money but never really change the world for animals.....40 years later the world is actually worse for animals than before. Been waiting for something like this my entire life. THANK YOU
