Here's a big proof of what is actually still happening at the SPCA (to our
dismay).
No matter how strongly they insist that the reform was done, no matter
how many grand seizures from the puppymills went on to the media, the core
attittude of the staff is disappointedly the same as before.
Their coldness, lack of compassion for the animals in distress,
bureaucratic excuses, a pick of euthanasia as an easy solution, and
unwillingness to work with good hearted volunteers are only known to those
who cared (like Beth McConnell) and experienced to be there with one
purpose(and with that only)---'to help and save the unfortunate animals'.
It is not known to those who read the articles or watch TV in their living
room but have never been involved in actual, hands-on rescue with
determination not to give up.

It's truly fortunate that the Animal Advocates Society exists as strongly
as ever as a watch dog.
The organization of as large a scale as the SPCA needs critics and scrutinizing
from outside to be operated fairly and transparently. It is
just so crucial.
