One sick... one crazy bananas
No need to pray for me however, pray for whomever walks me!
I am BANANAS
Poor darling... may have gotten stung by a something!
Pray for me...
Ordinance 27953 - the Intact Dog Permit passed City Council unanimously today
From LASPCA web site...
INTACT DOG ORDINANCE
In order to combat the growing pet overpopulation problem in New Orleans we have consulted on an ordinance that would impose an intact dog license on anyone who's dog is not spayed/neutered. Please review the ordinance and see below for the reasons we support it.
1. Statistics show that intact male dogs are 2.6 times more likely to bite than their unneutered counter parts. Every dog that has been involved in a major attack in New Orleans was intact when it occurred. With the aggressive dog issue in New Orleans coming to a pinnacle this month, we feel that this ordinance can bring us one step closer to a bite-free community.
2. The pet overpopulation of the New Orleans area continues to climb. We euthanized over 400 healthy and adoptable animals last year alone because we did not have the space available to find homes for them. By giving us a legal reproach to the many repeat offenders we have coming in the shelter on roaming at large charges we can close the loop hole that has been allowing these animals to continue to reproduce on the streets.
3. The LA/SPCA has a long and storied history with the city and the Animal Control contract. This ordinance along with the Rabies Tag fee re-classification will enable the LA/SPCA to provide revenue streams into the often lacking Animal Control contract. We are always proactively looking for creative ways to fund this essential service.
