Governor Jerry Brown’s Budget to KILL SHELTER PETS may be presented this Monday.
May 12, 2012 in Animal Rights, General Stuff!
Shot down the first time in April, Governor Brown is going to try it AGAIN! His second revised budget completely killing the HAYDEN'S ACT is being presented this Monday, May 14th, 2012 according to the LA Times.
On April 11, 2012, the California State Legislature unanimously rejected Brown's attempts to repeal Hayden's Act. Both Senate and Assembly are on board with those of us who want our sheltered pets protected. The Hayden's Act provides mandated holding periods before the pets are Read more [...] 
Henry E. Brock...... you sorry excuse for a man.....
Last summer, this man's ex-wife filmed him while he kicked, dragged, and used a cattle prod on this 10-year-old Senior dog last year! The video speaks for itself! Alexis Brock said the dog didn't like being on a chain, and that Brock started beating it while she and their 2-year-old son watched!
Unfortunately a long time went by before this was discovered, and we don't know how many times it happened to this dog or any other. Alexis 
Isn't it nice to have a state move forward with dissolving BSL (Breed Specific Legislature). Here is a link to their Assembly Act that started the whole remedy. I look forward to more states following this example. Thank you, Ohio! It gives the rest of us hope!
According to a Facebook page called "REFORM DEVORE ANIMAL SHELTER", Devore Shelter in San Bernardino County, CA has AGAIN pulled an unexplainable act that will lead to endless deaths of adoptable pets. Rescuers and every-day people who network these faces before they get killed by this shelter are now scraping for details on the pets in need.

While people met at City Hall to have a vigil for Justice, the suspect, Darius Ewing turned himself in! He was the person who allegedly flicked the cigarette onto the 4-month-old puppy covered in lighter fluid. He was NOT the only one there, causing this situation. Please, if you know anything about this incident in Dallas, Texas, for Justice's sake, make things right and turn these other cowards in. Hopfully Ewing will talk.
How anyone can set a puppy on fire is beyond comprehension. But someone did, and so many people tried desperately to help save the 4 month old they named Justice from death's door. But Justice was beyond what we on earth could do. He succumbed to his injuries, suffering septic shock , and though everyone was hopeful for a possible recovery, he died in the hands of these people who loved him until the end.
Dallas police are currently seeking the 18-year-old man responsible for Justice's 
UPDATE!!!! Both the House and the Senate have rejected Gov. Brown's plan to dismiss the Hayden's Act!!! As of April 11th, it is safe! Unfortunately, Brown is allowed to redo his budget plans and bring them across both parties again, expected in May. We'll have to keep up the fight to make sure Brown does not jeopardize the shelter pets in the near future and sneak this through!
Hayden's Act is the ONLY enforcement requiring shelter pets to have a few days "stay of execution"
