Subject: How many dogs/cats has the SPCA failed?

I am writing to your newspapers to alert you of something that recently happened to a dog that I rescued from Burnaby Mountain Park. I would like it if you used my story to tell public what happened to him as I am thoroughly disgusted and upset with how the Burnaby SPCA handled things. I do appreciate that some staff there did try to help him and I don't want to bad mouth any of them but, I am VERY upset at how things turned out for the dog and don't feel that the SPCA handled things well. I spent a lot of time with the dog, Picasso, and built a good relationship with him. I don't feel that the end result was warranted and I'm upset that I wasn't contacted. I will attach some of my e mails between SPCA and myself.
