This website is wonderful - I'm from a long line of dog lovers - my Mom started a grass roots effort to change the local dog pound's practices/policies - in two years the number of volunteers has grown from 2 to 75 members and they have made great strides in changing the policies of the pound and also to be able to get in and work with the dogs and improve the conditions - I'm so proud of my Mom - and she began this all at the age of 70! Both my mom and I spend hours talking about our dogs, like young mothers reviewing the antics of our toddlers! We too gush and cry over every dog/cat/horse story that hit's the news - but we know too well of the true inhumanity that surrounds us every day. This website is a wonderful forum for all of us who know that the relationship that we have with our animals is truly a gift. The large humane organizations are wonderful and easy to support especially now, with the holidays coming up they're all sending out their pleas - but please don't forget the local efforts to end inhumane treatment of animals. It may take some extra effort to find them - but they also need our support.
