Margo

On or about November 4, 2009 in Owingsville, KY, a beautiful two year old Golden Retriever named "Dusty" was found hanging from a backhoe in a macabre display of brutality, visible to any who were unfortunate witnesses passing on a nearby road.  The owner of the dog, Wesley Barrett, claims that his unnamed neighbor shot and killed the dog, upon finding the dog dead he hung the dog as a message to his neighbor.  A shocked witness of the hanging dog took photos and called animal control.  Police were notified and sent to the Barrett residence, however, Mr. Barrett failed to name the neighbor that allegedly shot the dog, he failed to press charges and the police did not investigate this gruesome murder. 

According to many reports, an investigation into this murder has been requested, however, to date, the concern for Dusty's murder seems to have disappeared as quickly as his body.  We call for an investigation into this senseless murder.  We ask what pet owner would hang his dead dog and refuse to press charges against whoever allegedly murdered his dog? 

We ask the officials of Kentucky to take a stand, do not let Dusty's murder go unpunished, this was blatant animal abuse and nothing less. Dusty was only 2 years old, I cannot imagine the pain this dog suffered prior to his death. 

We remind the officials in Kentucky that as the new year comes so do the elections and we remind the citizens of Kentucky to remember Dusty, remember if your elected officials cannot protect and enforce safety of the animals of Kentucky, how can they protect and enforce the safety of it's people? 

People have responded with disgust at the hanging of this dog from not just around the United States but from around the World.  Kentucky, your failure to follow up on this atrocity has embarrassed your state, I urge you do the right thing and look into this matter, who really killed Dusty?

EBAY-GO FUR FREE!

Target: EBAY

    The fur trim market is an equal, if not greater, threat to animals than is the making of fur coats. Fur trim is not what's left over from making full-length fur coats. Thousands of animals are killed simply to provide trimming effects for fashion. Even purchasing the tiniest bit of fur trim supports the cruel fur industry.

We want ebay to take a step toward helping the BAN on fur importation and say NO to selling fur item. EBAY-WASH THE BLOOD OFF YOUR HANDS-GO FUR FREE!

Justice For Gabby


Target: District Attorney of Cape Giradeau, Missouri

    I would like to ask every one to imagine going to pick up your child from day care, only to find out that she is not right, rushing to the hospital to be told many things are yet to come. Her Family by her side watching her head swell, new bruising appearing by the minute, and yet almost 3 years later her family is still fighting for justice. This innocent little baby was harmed by the very people paid to take care of her. Only an adult could cause such force upon this innocent little child. She had a starburst fracture in her skull & was hanging on for her dear life while more bruising appeared as the day went on.....

Health Reform Legislation Fails to Include Children: Urgent Action!

Target: U.S. House of Representatives

    Health reform is at a critical turning point on Capitol Hill and crucial decisions are being made right now to improve our broken health care system. With all of the improvements being proposed, it's inexcusable that the House of Representatives' health reform legislation does not include what children truly need to have real health care reform.
Your Representative has the ability to influence key Representatives and House Leadership to support amendments to this legislation that would ensure real health care reform for children.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++



Support Historic Health Care Bill

Target: U.S. House of Representatives
    The House of Representatives recently unveiled America's Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009 -- comprehensive health care reform legislation that will finally lower health care costs, provide a public option and offer greater choice and a higher quality of care for all Americans.

boostMarcus Campbell, Jasper, AL, was happy when he found out his escaped boxer, Boost, had been found and turned into the Humane Society in Walker County. He showed up early the next morning before the shelter was even open to pick up his prodigal pooch only to find out that Boost had been euthanized within a half hour of being dropped of at the shelter.

“She asked what I needed, and I said, ‘I’m here to pick up my dog that you got in at 4 o’clock.’ She said, ‘The only dog we got in at 4 o’clock was the boxer dog that an old couple brought in.’ I said, ‘Yes, ma’am. That’s him,’ and she said, ‘We done put him to sleep.’”

Humane Society Executive Director Lane Reno says the dog was dropped off by an elderly couple at 4 pm, quickly evaluated by staff, thought initially to be a pitbull or pitbull mix and euthanized by 4:30. She didn’t sound too remorseful that they had killed a beloved family pet either.

“We can have any individual bring a dog in. It’s a family pet. It’s never bitten anybody. It’s really nice, but I guarantee you if it tries to bite one of us while we’re reaching for it, we cannot and will not put that animal up for adoption.”

Basically, the shelter was full, they had to available cages or space so it was quickly bye-bye to Boost ever though Marcus Campbell says Boost was a friendly dog, had a collar and was well-fed and taken care of.

Campbell’s attorney, Brett Wadsworth, will file a civil lawsuit on Tuesday- against the Walker County Humane Society, Executive Director Lane Reno, and Walker County this Tuesday, arguing all three broke the law.

“What our goal is in this is not to get a large sum of money,” Wadsworth explains. “Our goal is to make sure this does not happen again.”

The law requires dog or cat owners be notified when their animal is impounded, if ownership can be determined, or the animal may be put up for adoption after at least seven days. The Code of Alabama also requires all counties to have a suitable pound and impound officer. Walker County, which has neither, is essentially breaking the law. The City of Jasper pays the Humane Society to impound its dogs.

“And that’s the keyword, ‘impound,’” Reno says. “That’s official Animal Control when you can impound animals and hold them in hopes that an owner comes, but we just don’t have that kind of facility.” Reno maintains lack of space has been an issue. (ABC3340.com)

To me this is just incomprehensible! To euthanize a dog almost immediately without giving the owner a chance to come forward, especially a dog which is so obviously healthy and well-bred. Even if the dog were “moody” as she put it, that’s no reason. He was probably scared, traumatized. Most shelters will hold a dog for a certain period of time in case it belongs to someone before they put it up for adoption or euthanize it if they decide it cannot be adopted. There is no excuse for for this!


Please take just a moment to sign the petition below and share your thoughts and support for Marcus.

Punish Puppy Torturer 


Target: Judge William W. Barrett

    We the undersigned respectfully request that Anthony Spidle be punished to the fullest extent of the law.  Anthony Spidel is the first adult in Utah to be charged with a felony under the new animal torture law.


Anthony Spidle severely beat and tortured his ex girlfriend’s 6 month old pit bull mix puppy named Gabriella. She was beaten with a skateboard and tennis racket and thrown against the wall. He recorded the puppy yelping and crying on his ex girlfriend’s voice mail saying, “she doesn’t love me and she doesn’t love you.” He then jumped on the puppy's head and throat, "yelling that he was going to kill him, cut off his head" and give it to his ex-girlfriend. The puppy barely survived.

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/please-end-heartstick-euthanasia

SEE BELOW FOR DEFINITION:

*Intracardial injections, commonly referred to as "heart sticks," are considered inhumane and cruel when performed on animals that aren't anesthetized or comatose. Using the "heart stick" method is painful because the needle containing sodium pentobarbital - a schedule II controlled substance used to euthanize animals - passes through the chest wall and several layers of muscle before puncturing the heart. If the euthanasia substance isn't carefully and accurately administered, an animal's lungs could be punctured, causing them to fill with fluid, a painful way to die.

Intracardial injections are difficult to administer effectively on fully conscious animals because in the animal, the lungs and the heart are constantly moving, said Dr. Bonnie Beaver, a veterinarian and professor of veterinary medicine who is considered a euthanasia expert by the American Veterinary Medical Association.

PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION SO WE CAN MAKE SURE THAT THESE ANIMALS DO NOT HAVE TO DIE IN AGONY!

Hello my dear care2 friends,

I know I am rather absent lately but believe me it is hectic because I am ever more involved in real life situations with animals in Italy.

My dear friend Marion G knows all about it as her fantastic organization drove all the way from Germany to bring down about 1,500 kg of dog food, medicines etc.  They save animals from all over EUROPE - many from Spain and Italy and even Moscow - and keep them in foster until they go to their homes - the dogs never go into shelters or kennels. This is their organization:

So, I am asking you to sign my petition - you can read more about it on the petition.  If you have read this far, thanks and have a good weekend all!

(PETITION HERE)

Love and hugs,

Jessie

Target: Apple Tree Mobile Home park
Sponsored by: Marian Elliott

Poppy lives at Apple Tree Mobile Home Park in New Castle Colorado with his canine companions, Bella and Boots, and his human family.  Recently, the management of Apple Tree announced that only one dog per mobile home would be allowed.  Because Poppy's family had two dogs before moving, they had secured permission for two dogs, in writing, prior to the move.  They were sure that after explaining how they had come to have another, permission would be granted to keep all three.

Unfortunately, the management of Apple Tree did not agree.  They recognized that the family was "Grandfathered" and could keep two, but a third would have to go.  The family suggested that Poppy, at age 15 years, deaf, and with a heart condition, should be allowed to live out his natural life and no other dogs would be added.  The other two dogs, both 5 years old, would be kept as the two dogs the family is allowed.  Again, the management of Apple Tree did not agree. 

The family has been told that they must produce a Veterinary receipt for the euthanization of Poppy within 30 days or face eviction.  They do not have the money for a court fight, nor do they have the money to move their mobile home, yet they are desperate to save Poppy.  Please help us convince  the management of Apple Tree Mobile Home park to reconsider and allow Poppy to live out his natural life.

Tennessee to legalize the sale of horsemeat?

 

 

Tenn. Rep. Promoting Horse-Slaughter


Target: Tenn. Rep. Frank Niceley & the Tenn. State Legislature

 

    As a result of a meeting of the National Conference of State Legislators (NCSL) held last December, a plan was formulated by certain politicians to push their pro-slaughter agenda on a state-by-state basis across the land, working through their own state legislatures. Due to the plan of the NCSL, several state legislators are introducing bills in their own home states to support horse-slaughter and the re-opening of the plants in the USA.


PLEASE ALSO TAKE NOTE: Below is a petition to the National Conference of State Legislators (NCSL) and a list of the states that are also working through them in  conjunction with eachother to bring equine slaughter back in the United States and to put horsemeat on YOUR grocery-market shelves and eventually on your table!~ If you live in one of the states below, we strongly urge you to contact your state legislatures to let them know you vote and OPPOSE horse slaughter.

Against hunting shows

We are urging RTS to stop promoting hunters and inhumane, sensless killing of our wildlife. more»
.

~PETITION AGAINST broadcasting of SHOWS DEDICATED TO HUNTERS.

With this petition, we the undersigned are urging the director and editors of National Television «Radio Televizija Srbije» (RT to stop promoting and glorofiing the inhumane and sensless killing of Animals for hunters' pleasure and profit (or in the name of so called «sport» which hunting is NOT ) .


Serbian Citizens pleaded and pleaded, called editors in RTS and explained how emotionaly disturbed they become after seeing that «show» on TV (our children tears and emotional disstress CANT be ignored no more).

We- the citizens, asked for those TV shows dedicated to hunters to be scechuled (broadcasted) in some other time and NOT ( like now ) in prime time (in the afternoon when kids are watching)

but our pleas were ignored.

Why National Tv station treated Serbian citizens like they are someone who does not deserve to state oppinion and to voice concerns about innapropriate programe on RTS?


On our pleas, to at least, move this morning show dedicated to hunters to some late night time

 we got same anwers from several editors:


«change the channel if you dont like what you see!»

«there are so many hunters they want to see hunting shows on TV»

(by that rude statement, does it mean that rapists and child abusers should also get their show on national TV channel %u2013 as Serbia is full of abusers too?! )


NOTE: Srbian citizens are paying fees to National TV, RTS claim that they are in service of citizens, therefore we are fully empowered to demand that shows dedicated to hunters be taken off the progam of National TV.


With this petition, we are urging the director and editors of Radio televizija Srbije (RT to take off  «shows» dedicated to glorify hunters and are stating that we will start BOYCOTING RTS - if  RTS dont take seriously our pleas, letters, calls and petition.

The Barceloneta Pet Massacre took place in Puerto Rico a year ago, when around 80 dogs and cat were brutally taken away from their owners in project homes in Barceloneta and then thrown down a bridge to a dried river. This week  Animal Control Solution was found not guilty of the Barceloneta pet massacre, Puerto Rico and the whole world wants the guilty one to pay!
Finding ACS not guilty is not the end of the case, if they did not do it, someone did.....we want the authorities to go after the guilty one regardless of who he is.
The pets did not jump down the bridge by themselves, enough of animal abuse!....it' s time for people who misstreat animals to suffer the consequences. Puerto Rico and the whole world still remember the massacre, we want the guilty one to pay!
Please forward this petitions to your whole list!

Videos to review the case!!

Narwhals; The Ocean's Unicorn slaughtered

 

Target: Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans

 

The government of Canada has a fleet of powerful ice-breakers. They  have the money, they have the means. They could have reached the whales and they could have broken a path for them to freedom.
Instead of noisy slightly irritating icebreakers delivering mercy, we had dozens of ruthless Inuit killers blasting away with high powered  rifles at screaming whales frantically trying to escape the bullets, desperate in panicked horror as they dove and surfaced, frustrated with no place to go.

I know it's poor written, but on the other hand I don't think that any arguments can change their minds, for the killers a message "close animal lab!!" is enough.
So, please sign the petition and forward.

Animal experimentation, especially on monkeys (though I mean it for all animals), is SO morally wrong, it is possibly the worst of all injustices to animals. They are made to live lives of fear and pain, experiencing horrors that we cannot possibly imagine, on a daily and nightly basis. The fact that they don´t know what´s happening to them or why makes the terror they suffer MUCH worse than if they did understand. This really is the most DESPICABLE of all forms of cruelty to animals, and it´s hard to imagine how the monsters who inflict such physical, spiritual and mental pain to these poor, innocent creatures actually manage to sleep at night. I could not live with myself, but hey, I´m not doing this dreadful, awful stuff. Shame on the people who carry out these nightmarish experiments, and especially, shame on the world´s politicians, for allowing it to happen without an iota of remorse.

The European Union is spending £30 million per year to support Spanish bullfights, which will kill at least 40,000 bulls this year. The EU is being urged by the Spanish government to recognise bullfighting as representative of Europe's cultural heritage.
 
"The organisers of bullfights in Spain have told me that they love the EU because they now receive enough subsidies to kill 15 or 16 animals in a fiesta rather than the traditional one or two", says Tony Moore.....

Help me save my babies from DEATH ROW!!~ 

Everyone please help! Broward County's New Dangerous Dog Law has put my babies in jeopardy! 

Our Story:
My neighbors dog was in my yard aggravating my 2 dogs, while being provoked one of my dogs pushed the gate open (which unfortunatly had not been properly relocked by my lawn maintenance company) and escaped. The two dogs began to fight in my yard, unfortunately the other dog, a Yorkie did not make it. I am at my wits end!!! They claim it was in their yard when it was not.
After seeing my dog escape I ran out and stopped the fight, my dog let go instantly however I have a Staffordshire terrier and she is 66 lbs and the other dog was very small. This was a horrible accident but with the new law they will put my dogs down since the neighbors can't seem to get their story straight. We are talking a matter of inches, now how can they kill them for a matter of inches. These are my kids and taking them away is wrong. I feel horrible about what happened and paid all the expenses for the vet in order to try and save the Yorkie's life. The neighbors have even said it was not our fault and the Animal Control has even said they are not dangerous but with the neighbors constantly changing their story my dogs still sit on DEATH ROW. Please help me save my dogs!!!
How to Help! Please sign the petition and pass it along, we need all the help we can get!

The Mayor of Almería, from the Partido Popular political party, promised during his electoral campaign that the Almería dog pound would be managed by animal welfare groups and would prohibit the sacrifice of abandoned dogs and cats.  The sad truth is that the pound is a centre for systematic sacrificing of the poor animals that have the misfortune of entering there. For this reason, the Platform Friends of Animals of Almería, formed by the majority of welfare associations in Almería, request your signature to demand that the Partido Popular complies with their electoral promise to all Almerians.

Help save UN Lucky puppies! Get Lucky Puppy out of Marketplace
 
Target: Lucky Puppy Pet Store, Dennis Robertson, General Manager
 
 
We, the undersigned, are outraged and appalled that you continue to allow Lucky Puppy to remain in the mall. It is deeply disturbing to see living creatures on display in glass windows, being sold as if they are no different from the other accessories in the store.  This causes people to purchase puppies on impulse, and without the understanding that owning a pet is a major responsibility, which leads to many puppies being abandoned or surrendered to shelters, where they may be euthanized simply because there are not enough resources to care for them.

On October 1st, the United States military committed a crime against their own mentally wounded U.S. soldiers serving in Iraq.  Commanding officers ordered the confiscation of a dog, Ratchet, befriended by a group of soldiers during a 15th month of deployment. Ratchet has been a lifeline to Sgt. Gwen Beberg. This morning, Ratchet was on his way to SPCA International rescue experts at the Baghdad Airport to be flown home to Gwen's parents in Minneapolis, MN when Sgt. Beberg's commanding officers ordered Ratchet confiscated and held in Iraq to face certain death.

“NO MORE TIGER RANCHES!” ~ Put an end to unchecked cruelty, neglect, and lonely death of homeless cats and kittens ~ Prosecute Felony and Misdemeanor ANIMAL ABUSE in The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and everywhere else
END WANTON ANIMAL CRUELTY IN THE PENNSYLVANIAN COMMONWEALTH!

Pet-Abuse.com Case:
http://tinyurl.com/4fkpv5

Pet-Abuse.com Photo Gallery: http://tinyurl.com/3srxdt

In March 2008, Allegheny Sheriff’s Deputies, accompanied by American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) and Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (PSPCA) humane enforcement officers, executed search warrants that revealed a nightmare of cruelty at the Tarentum, Pennsylvania, “Tiger Ranch” cattery. (See Tiger Ranch Investigative Video:
http://tinyurl.com/2o3wzg.)
Suffering, disease-ridden survivors were filmed as they staggered among the stiff corpses of their companions, unable to eat or drink with their ulcerated mouths, or breath through their mucus-choked airways. (Sources: “Tiger Ranch Stuns Vet; ‘Never Saw Conditions Like This’,” WTAE TV-4 (ABC), http://tinyurl.com/52k4xh; “Tiger Ranch Supplemental Video,” http://tinyurl.com/4qx9pg.)

Those cats and kittens beyond suffering were found jammed in freezers, bulldozed into shallow graves, or laying where they fell, dead, in their food, litter boxes, trailers, or beneath the open sky.

Hundreds of animals were imported from distant states; fine, adoptable cats who arrived in excellent health, only to deteriorate, suffer, and die in the frigid Pennsylvanian Piedmont. (Source: “Sick Cats Came To Tiger Ranch From Several States,” WPXI TV-11 (NBC), http://tinyurl.com/6z3jqx.)

The Tiger Ranch proprietor was arrested, charged with 593 criminal counts of animal cruelty.  Arraigned in July 2008, the suspect faces trial in January 2009.

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and the County of Allegheny, must take measures to ensure such grievous atrocities are never again perpetrated against blameless domestic animals or livestock within their borders.

Be It Therefore RESOLVED, that the Pennsylvanian Commonwealth and Allegheny County must affirm and reinforce existing cruelty statutes, and propose such new criminal statutes that will enable felony animal cruelty charges against any party that perpetrates grave harm against harmless domestic animals or livestock; and

Be it Further RESOLVED, that the law enforcement authorities of the Pennsylvanian Commonwealth, Allegheny County, independent authorities of the ASPCA, the PSPCA, and all relevant animal cruelty law enforcement authorities, should be granted the fullest and broadest authorities to search, investigate, and terminate grave and intolerable instances of animal cruelty, neglect, and epidemic disease; and

Be it Further RESOLVED, that legitimate, not-for-profit, “No-Kill” organizations and rescue entities be accorded the support and recognition they deserve, and be in no way tainted by association with the Catastrophe in Tarentum.

As District Judge Susan Blaschak aptly observed, “In the absence of duty, care, food, water and helping the animals get to it ... this rises to the level of torturous conduct,” (Source: “Cat Shelter Operator Ordered to Stand Trial,” Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, http://tinyurl.com/6buch4.)

CROSSPOSTING FOR JENNA September 22, 2008 11:12 AM

Although I do like helping sponsor all of my Care2 friends causes, I am especially fond of my friends who are so committed to a cause that they go out and start fighting the battle themselves. This takes guts, time, and extreme effort! I have a friend that is need of your help as soon as possible. This wonderful lady just needs 1,000 signatures to make her battle winnable, but if she does not get 1,000 by October 18th this battle will be all but lost due to politics’ and the powers that be, that would be a terrible shame and waste of a valiant effort. These children need her to win this fight!

I don’t do this very often unless it is very important to me, but could you please sign the petition and forward it to all of your friends (and encourage them to forward it also).  I promised Janet that I would do everything in my power to help her, but I can’t do that without you my friends!! I only have 112 friends so I sure need you to pass this on, please…..!

Insert from the Daily Voice.
PIT BULL BURNT ALIVE!
Target:
Help the SPCA with the prosecution of the owners who burnt Tammy alive!
Sponsored by: 
This insert was in the Daily Voice Newspaper telling of a Pit Bull named Tammy who was burnt to death by her owners!

The owners wanted to punish her for jumping over the wall into their neighbors garden, so they fetched her and put her in her kennel and doused it with petrol and set it alight!!

Tammy was only found a few days later by Animal Welfare workers who wept when they saw her. Tammy had sustained such severe burns to her legs, belly and face, she was also blinded by the fire.  The SPCA had to eauthenaze Tammy because she was just in too much pain.

The heartless couple could face charges of jail up to a year and fines up to R 200 000. This is not enough for what they have done to this innoccent victim! We plead for the maximum possible punishment!

For every 500 signatures I receive I can send it to the SPCA for use in the prosecution of these people.

Tammy's death will not go unseen, she is an ambassador for all pets around the world! PLEASE help me give these owners a taste of their own medicine?

Group History  12:10 PM

There was a great article in People about a father who lost his baby girl when a licensed child care provider shook her and caused massive brain damage. Instead of giving up he started doing research and found that over 1,400 children a year are affected and many of those who cause the harm cannot be convicted because prosecutors cannot prove intent. He started fighting and got Cynthia's Law passed. It makes it a felony in New York State to cause injury-regardless of intent- by "shaking, slamming or throwing" a child under 5 and the penalty in up to 7 years in prison. He is now working to get Federal Legislation and counseling for parents. I feel this is a cause many will feel strongly about so I created a petition for us to sign and forward to him to help get the legislation passed. If everyone on here signed it would be a powerful statement and show of support. Every signature is important and if it helps one baby it is worth it. Please sign this petition (link is below) and pass it on to your  friends so everyone sees it and signs. Thank you http://www.petitiononline.com/stopsbs/petition.html
