Dear Sirs:
Please consider this letter an initial act of protest at the return of the dogs to the puppy mill (aka "hobby farm"). As a business associate of Patricia Josh Best, I witnessed first hand the emaciated and ill condition of the dog given to her to foster. This dog reacted with terror to every man or beast save Ms. Best, and I was delighted to see such an obviously disturbed and abused animal slowly being nurtured back to health and happiness by a dedicated and sensitive volunteer. I reacted to the news that these poor animals had essentially been sold to their abusers with the only emotion befitting of this betrayal: utter horror.
A staunch supporter of the S.P.C.A. in the past, I regrettfully withdraw all support from your
organization, and have made it my business to show everyone that I know the newspaper articles that have been published on the subject of this gross injustice.
Sincerely, Olivia Candille.
