Asher Moore Rowlett animal shelter
Donation protected
This Go Fund Me has been created to support the Moore Family after his termination with the City of Rowlett Animal Services.
The funds will be used conservatively for legal services, caring for the animals they currently have in their care (MANY are dogs, cats, and the pig from the Rowlett Shelter) as well as their horses and other farm animals.
Asher Moore and his wife Heather are beloved by the Rowlett community. He was terminated last week due to not making enough strides in the vet budget told to him over the phone. The city is not taking responsibility for the shortfall in the budget AND they are not supporting their manager. What is the alternative to a balanced vet budget --- kill animals that come in. The shelter has not euthanized due to space in many years. Asher and his staff have cared for the animals until they are in foster, adopted, rescued, or returned home - or in many instances gone to live with Asher and Heather because they are hard to adopt animals (too frightened, medical needs, aggressive, etc.)
His firing leaves his staff in shock and lacking their leadership they want and need. It leaves the dogs, cats, and occasional bunny, snake, raccoon, etc. without their hero who finds ways to get them out alive. And, it leaves our city without the man that has shown compassion, integrity and helped everyone that comes through the shelter doors during hours as well as after hours with questions they have.
The goal is to get Asher back where he belongs --- caring for our most vulnerable and fragile population that do not have a voice. He spoke for them - ALWAYS.
