Report: 70% Of Pets At Animal Control Euthanized in JAX, FL

Please Cross post!!
 
We need everyone's help!! There needs to be drastic changes at Jacksonville Animal Care & Control. As you will recall they promised change after the last report done by the state last year, instead of changing for the better things have gotten worse. Now they say they have made changes but I can tell you that has not happened. We need another director and vet to take over. We also have not heard about the new facilty that was suppose to be started this summer. I am attaching the report that the Jax AC&C and the city refused to give to us. The report is appalling, much worse then Folio described. It is also 25 pages long. It is actually animal abuse. There is also another report I am attaching. This report is about a Dobie mix at Jax AC.
 
Now  the Vet at Jax AC did note that the first surgery was listed has a neuter but the other surgery just says "other". This surgery was to have the dogs ears cropped, we think because she knows it is against city policy, to have the tax payers pay for cosmetic surgery she did not specify what it was. Also the dog was to old to have this surgery performed. The picture of the dog is before his ears were done. Most of the people at Jax AC know this was done but could not say anything for fear of losing their jobs but they did send me this. The dog was adopted to Wendy Axel she is a Vet Tech at Jax AC
 
We all need to contact the powers in charge, the mayor, and city council. We need a new director and a new Vet in there . So please email or call them. We are planning a meeting with the amyoror to picket Jax AClet me know what you think. We will set this up after we hear from everyone.
 
Also the Folio reporter will send me a copy of the article by email tomorrow. Channel 4 is also doing a story.
