MICHAEL BELL FOUNDER ..CITIZENS FOR A HUMANE LOS ANGELES Friends of Animals: As the date for our humane community convention draws near, there is a GOOD NEWS! Citizens for a Humane Los Angeles (CHULA), the sponsor of the convention, has confirmed that candidates Bob Hertzberg, Richard Alarcon, Walter Moore and Antonio Villarigosa will attend. We are working hard to bring Bernard Parks and Mayor Hahn aboard as well, and believe that there are strong possibilities they will attend. This is turning out to be a MAJOR event in the political season. The Daily News has indicated it will cover the event. CHULA is also working on getting the TV news (which now seems likely given the response so far from the candidates). NOW ALL WE NEED IS YOU!! WHERE: The Beverly Garland Holiday Inn (4222 Vineland Ave. in North Hollywood) WHEN: 10am-4pm Sunday, January 9th CHULA would like to know approximately how many attendees to expect as there will be morning refreshments.

A STRONG TURNOUT will ensure the strength of our collective voices in this election. LET'S SHOW OUR LOCAL GOVERNMENT HOW STRONG THE ANIMAL COMMUNITY REALLY IS! If you have an estimate of how many people from your groups (or friends that you know) are planning to attend, please let me know so I can pass the info along to CHULA. This is an exciting time for the humane community. We now have an LAAS Commission that is balanced in favor of the animals. We have a new General Manager who has pledged cooperation with the humane community and comprehensive reforms to the beleagured Department of Animal Services. Now what we need is a progressive, compassionate, effective Mayor who can lead Los Angeles into the 21st century of animal care and control. YOU CAN HELP MAKE THIS A REALITY BY SUPPORTING THE HUMANE COMMUNITY CONVENTION! Please reply to phantom.rescuer@earthlink.net

I heard on the news that several
groups have come forward to take any of these adoptable dogs.
Where are those people for the other shelter dogs,
surely more than 30, that will
die tomorrow at kcac?
Regardless, thanks Jody, keep us
posted.

Happy New Year!! This is not something I can do without help. People come to me for TERRIERS, not Shep mixes, not Rott mixes, not Aussie mixes or Border Collies. The reason I took this on as a project is to help Evonne, who is now living in a van with no heat, no water, no power, and doing her best to keep these dogs safe. She is in her mid to late 60's and her husband is in a nursing home and in and out of ICU. Evonne needs to be able to take care of her husband and live like a human being, but she will not abandon the dogs. Kern County Animal Control will not take owner turn in's, even to euthanize. And Evonne cannot afford to have a private vet euthanize them, which is preferable to leaving them to fend for themselves. Evonne is being a more responsible pet owner/care giver than most of the people we consider as potential adopters. Please go to http://dboneweb.com/dbgallery/albums.php and click on "Yvonne's Dogs" for pictures and comments on some of the dogs. Huey, Miss Priss and Turley are already safe with responsible rescuers. The bigger dogs need to have the same chance. I will help with transport and am vaccinating the dogs as I get them. I need responsible rescuers to take on the dogs for spay/neuter and placement in foster and permanent homes. If I cannot get some help with placing these dogs then I will have to honor the second part of my promise to Evonne. I will be there with them as they cross the bridge, so that they will know that they were loved and cared for. Wanda Tillman, CPDT

Rescued Pup in Danger: My sister has taken in many animals in the past 20 years living in this area. She would keep this guy but the problem is her pitbull is not going for this new guy being around the house. She has muzzled the pit during the rainy nights so he could sleep inside. She is willing to drive him to a loving family or to a rescue/foster home and will donate a hundred dollars or more if someone is able to help him, she does not want him to go to the pound , but as she put it she is living in hell right now with the two of them there. It is only a matter of time until Biff gets a hold of this dog. Please crosspost this far and wide. My sister has ran ad's in every local paper for a found dog for over a week not one phone call. If someone is able to help this dog and my sister please call 310-643-8230 and ask for Carla Thanks Andi Andrea Dahm

Hi guys,
I know you both have a huge network of rescuers you can get in
contact with so I wanted to pass on this info incase anyone can
help.
I just got a call from a lady named Julie. There are three adult
dogs and two puppies running loose somewhere in Delray Beach. She
was on her way to work or somewhere and saw the dogs. Her and her
Mom have been going out there and feeding them every day but can't
catch them. She said they seem very friendly but she's afraid to
just try to grab them herself. The pups are supposedly young. Old
enough to get around on their own, but not older pups. She said
she's tried calling humane societies, SPCA and other rescues and
nobody can help. She called animal control and they said they'd be
euthanized in three days so she is using that as a last resort. She
said they are willing to help with some costs and may even be able
to foster the pups. She said it's a less then desireable
neighborhood that these dogs are in and she really just wants to try
to help these dogs. She said what she thinks is the mother dog is
black and may be like a Lab mix. Big surprise there, right? One
may be a Greyhound and the other two are medium to large dogs as
well. She said two aren't even eating. She understand that they
may be so sick that they end up euthanized, but she says the pups
are adorable and she doesn't want to see any of them killed if
possible. Of course we all know that we can't save them all, but I
wanted to pass on the info incase anyone is down in that area and
may be able to help. She said two of them won't even eat the food
she puts out. I'm sure these dogs are loaded with worms and God
knows what else.
If anyone can help at all you can contact her at 561-852-0278. Her
name is Julie.
Thanks!

Correspondents and Liaisons Needed! There are a myriad of positions available for many different agencies throughout the U.S. There is a great need for shelter workers and volunteers, liaisons, political activists, campaigners, publicists and press people, photographers, correspondents and, yes, transporters! Most of these positions are not, in and of themselves, demanding. Of course, if you care about animals they can become very time consuming efforts, indeed, and we appreciate the vast and varied talents of those who are doing this work -- many out of the kindness of their hearts. If you are interested in volunteering for this effort or others, we invite you to write us and let us know what you'd like to do, how often and how you like to work. We're sure to be able to find a match for you! We thank God for each and every one of you who care enough to confront almost insurmountable odds to do everything you can to change this travesty in our world, often facing your own humanity to do so, and putting your own emotions on the line to care for the voiceless among us: GODSPEED to each and every one... |
