Lawyers don't need the money as much as animals do! I know, my husband is a lawyer

What an truely wonderful web site this is. My daughter told me to read it and I can hardly stop once I started. I love the happy endings videos and hope there will be more soon. I have sent them to my friends who have email and that is quite a few now, even though we were all far behind our kids!

I don't know if everything AAS says is true about the SPCA, I know that when I offered to walk dogs a few months ago at my SPCA I was treated like I was a bother.

But I don't like this suing business. No good can come of it and a lot of money that ought to be spent on so many things is being spent on lawyers. Believe me they don't need the help as much as the animals do, I know, my husband is a lawyer.

The money ought to be spent on more education and advocacy to say nothing of better health care for SPCA animals. There is zero advocacy and almost zero education by the SPCA where I live.

I won't be donating to the SPCA anymore. I am not going to donate to AAS either, because I just don't know how right they are, but I do know how wrong the SPCA is to spend animals' money this way.

Sincerely,
Margaret Thomas

I ask that the revenues you have be spent on what the donors expect, the animals.
I would like to see more coverage in the media about this ongoing issue
Shame on you SPCA! Live up to your name!
Do something for chained dogs and your critics will turn into your greatest supporters of all
Thankfully God has given a heart for animals to many like WWF, Service Dogs, AAS, and the courage to individuals to speak out
I can't understand why a Society with the means to do so doesn't use its funds to take care of the animals, rather than target other animal groups
