The new developments at the Memphis Animal Shelter are there are no new developments.

Requests were sent out all over the country and the city hasn't received a single response.

Nobody wants to run that death camp for pets. The business model is all wrong. No kill shelters are the way of the future and this one is not designed for that model. Until the city realizes that no decent person or persons are capable of working at such a facility, things will never change at that animal slaughterhouse.

So what happened to all those critics of the Shelter..Those who constantly call for reform..those who forced Mr Pepper to resign (He's very happy he got out of this town), Where are those animal rights folks who want a no-kill shelter who constantly disrupted the MAS Meetings. Why didn't these folks form there own group and make a bid...WHY..cause they are all talk and no action and want the city to cater to them at no cost to them. The Memphis Animal Services is NOT a doggie day care center and until the citizens who continue to dump there unwanted pets off there or let them run in the street, those people who do not leash there dogs or properly contain them on there property the MAS will continue to do as it has done in the past and that is just fine with MOST of the taxpayers in this town.
