SENIOR GIRL CELESTE NEEDS A LOVING HOME!

THIS IS A COURTESY POST for a wonderful, senior woman who has to move to California to be cared for by her daughter.

She is unable to take her very best friend, Celeste, and was very upset on the phone when she said, "I certainly hope I don't have to have her euthanized."

Her love for this dog was apparent. Throughout our entire conversation she paused, tried to fight back her tears (and couldn't), and then continued explaining to me that she has no one to leave her dog with.

I told her S.P.A. would do everything we could to find a perfect home for this sweet girl. She will be leaving for Calilfornia in a couple of weeks.

THANKS TO ALL WHO ATTENDED!

Society for the Protection of Animals would like to say, "Thank You!" to all who attended S.P.A.'s recent Fundraiser hosted by Tackle Box II!

S.P.A. OPPOSES HOUSE BILL 568, proposed by Representative Tyrone Yates

If you oppose Representative Tyrone Yates' bill to order the warden/law enforcement to enter people's homes and remove and kill all dogs believed to be pit bulls then you need to email a letter in opposition stating your feelings.

Barbara McGrady writes Letter of Opposition to the State Government and Elections Committee.

Ohio House Bill 568, if passed, would demand that dog wardens obtain search warrants and seize people's beloved pets (pit bulls or dogs who look like pit bulls) SO THEY ALL COULD BE KILLED. The Pit Bull "Holocaust." (CAUTION! GRAPHIC PHOTOS)
