In the local newspaper article the Humane Society stated that the COULDN'T take any action on the phone calls as there was no address given by the caller. Hard to respond to a call when you don't know where it is.

If I was trying to solely remedy the dog's situation, I would have done things as quietly as possible. I find it curious that there is a means in the statutes for any humane organization (or animal charity) to get a warrant to remove an animal from an abusive situation, and there was no warrant requested.

Again, I find it hard to believe that a national organization would not know and take advantage of the law in the state which they originated.
