I just read about this here and I live only about 35 miles from Libby. The problem in libby right now is that they are worring about the asbestis for humans. Not a reason for this but it is the truth. Lincoln County is the upper northwest of Montana.It is split buy mountain ranges so part of it is on the Canadain border it's kinda of a weird way of having a county. to get to part of it you drive thru Flathead ( I live there) about 60 miles.
I have heard good news about our shelter it now has joined with the local PAWS group so no more kill shelter.They are also raising money to build a pet center. It will have a play park and adoption area. Place for local trainers to teach from and it's on about 15 acres . They are inlisting the help from celbs whom own homes here in the valley. The only thing that bothers me is they are bad mouthing our spay and neuter task force. They claim we arn't willing to help, we have tried so hard to get them to let us help in the past and got treated like crap. So we built our own place and now they are steamed, cuz we are taking funds from they supporters.People wanted to help who are we to turn them down. There is plenty of unaltered pets for both of us to take care of. I don't get it.The plans for the new place sound like some of the places you see in California that are more like pet hotels.
I will try to see if I can find out any thing more on the Libby case. if i can I'll post it for all to see.
