GREAT PLACE to hand out Humane Watch info?? where else .. but at the parade where Wayne will be.. use these opportunities as a
teachable moment”
I wonder if that sports writer who decided Michael Vick must be a changed man because Wayne Pacelle says so, and “there isn’t a whole lot of upside for him to protect Michael Vick”, has read this…
I wish I had found out about this contest sooner, I will definitely post on every blog now to try and win for my pet shelter (Beagles & Buddies!). HSUS sides with Vick on account of a 250k payout…yeah thats expected. Interesting articles, looking forward to reading more!
Disposable bags for picking up after my dogs on our walks has become cheaper for me. I do not buy the doggy bags, but I buy the baby diaper disposable bags instead. Not only they cheaper and more quantity, but they usually have that baby powder smell to them. More pleasant for me in case there is no garbage can nearby.

I note that the HSUS got part of the NFL Eagles grant money that was supposed to be spent on animal-related programs. Sooo.. HSUS supports Vick, and in turn the Eagles have given money to HSUS.
Gee, I’d be surprised but you know.. it’s HSUS.
