Innocent until proven guilty...
I sure hope these people are guilty because that would take a lot of fighters off of the streets. I hope they have the proof for convictions. Good work Mississippi.
Benton County dogfighting suspects' names released
Apr 3, 2013
The final number of people arrested at a dog fight in Benton County over the weekend is 52, according to a list released by the Marshall County Sheriff’s Department on Wednesday.
Officials said some of those arrested are “major players” in the national dog fight scene.
Between 15-20 dogs were also rescued. Two of them were fighting at the time police arrived, and the others were being held in vehicles awaiting their turn to fight.
"This was one of the premiere dogfights in the country, if you will," said Marshall County Sheriff Kenny Dickerson on Monday. "They have five or six a year according to our intelligence."
Police believe there could be others who escaped through the woods because they confiscated upwards of 70 cars. They also recovered around $100,000 and expected that total to rise as they continued to inventory the confiscated vehicles.
According to Mississippi Code, anyone fighting a dog or holding a dog fight can be fined up to $5,000 and may spend up to three years in the state penitentiary. Those convicted of watching a dog fight can be fined up to $5,000 and may spend up to a year in prison.
Investigators are still looking for those who may have escaped the dog fighting ring, and the Humane Society is offering up to a $5,000 reward for anyone with information that leads to a conviction.
Those arrested by more than 100 officers and agents with the Marshall, Benton, and DeSoto county sheriff’s departments and the Mississippi Bureau of Investigations are as follows:
1. Willared Vernon Allen, 33, Houston, Texas
2. Demott Allen, 37, Houston, Texas

Y'all I can drive!
Although the Doctor told me I can't go far so... I will be going 8th to St. Charles to Jackson to Magazine to Louisiana until I get dizzy and car sick! So excited. Next hurdle - walking my babies. I sure miss walking them!
Barb is running a bit behind...
"Houser" busted camp and Barb almost hit him. His Daddy was called and is on his way. Collars with name, address and telephone numbers are worth every cent!
OHMYGOSH!
So - I listen to television while I work... Seriously - that cat really does look like Anderson Cooper!

I can pull and transport if someone can keep them together...
Hi our names are Gumbo and Cayanne. We were returned to PAWS because our owner was moving and could not afford to keep us. We would love to get adopted together but if not we do not have to get adopted together. So please come and visit with us. Thanks Gumbo and Cayanne!
French Quarter Fest!
French Quarter Fest is next weekend and it is getting a bit crazy! If you need us, please email ASAP and we will get you all set. I always say... I don't think it is real conducive to bring pups. It gets a bit crowded!

14 and tossed away... Can someone save her?
Maggie went to Southern Animal Foundation on Monday and got a great exam. She had a negative fecal. The vet said she looked amazing for her age of 14 years. She also had bloodwork and looked great. She will get a dental and have a few masses removed on her mammary glands on Tuesday. She's looking for her forever home as soon as she has her surgery. She's heartworm negative, spayed, up to date on shots, flea prevention, & heartworm prevention. She will be chipped when she gets surgery. She gets along with all dogs. She loves to cuddle. WE think she's a beagle and lab mix. She's so precious and full of life. She's so happy.

If you search "I hate dogs", "I hate cats" on Facebook you will find a lot of pages and community pages. The content is disturbing. I would not post anything on the pages because I do not want to give them the pleasure. I did however sign this petition and sent Facebook a note...
