Animals Abused & Abandoned Blog

The Dallas Morning News recently posted an article from the New York Times regarding a new a bill introduced in California which effectively places animal abusers on the same level as sex offenders by listing them (their name, address and place of employment) in an online registry. This would mean great strides for the state of California and would hopefully lead to more states instigating similar litigation.

Here’s a link to the article:

To effect a change in your community, send a letter to your legislator demanding that your state require animal abusers to register in their community. Here’s a link with a sample letter and more information.

Please let us know what you think of this idea and if you would be interested in volunteering to help Animals 3 support this type of legislation. Thank you.

Animals 3 has begun the process of spaying and neutering 31 dogs rescued from deplorable conditions at a shelter which was the subject of our most recent Spotlight Story. So far nine dogs have been sterilized. Thanks to all who have contributed to this worthy project. But there are many more dogs who need to be sterilized in readiness for placement in a permanent home. If you can, please make a donation to Animals 3 and help these precious and deserving dogs find new homes. We will be posting pictures and more updates soon – and again thanks so much for your continued support of Animals Abused and Abandoned.

Here’s a blog with pros and cons.  Let me know what you think –

Angie, the Fairy Dogmother of Dallas and Animal 3’s December project, is in urgent need of additional dog crates/shelters. Angie will be thankful for doghouses in any condition, but she would be especially appreciative of igloos in large and extra large sizes. This is an especially urgent situation as Angie is finding dogs literally frozen to death – the igloos especially are lifesavers in extreme weather. If you have any used dog crates you can spare or would like to donate to buy some new one’s please contact Monique 214-601-2345 – thanks so much!

Here is Angie’s story in case you missed it before
