Are Chained Dogs Unadoptable as the SPCA claimed? *LINK* *PIC*

In a February 2nd Vancouver Sun story, reporter Kim Pemberton quotes BC SPCA Senior Animal Protection Officer, Eileen Drever: "I spoke to an animal behaviourist who is also a vet and she spoke with an expert in the [United] States who said [the sled dogs] weren’t adoptable".

Creston PAWS rescued 56 chained dogs and placed them in loving homes. Are chained dogs unadoptable? This story proves they are not!

"These dogs had come from a neglected and abusive environment and were collected with the misguided intention of being used as sled dogs. Chained to trees all their lives, many had scars and open wounds on their heads and around their necks. All the dogs exhibited fearful behaviour, some to the extent of severe traumatization. As far as PAWS knew or had been able to determine, none of the dogs had ever been off their chains, or trained in sledding in any way."
