Just got home from Spiderman 3. Pretty good.

But...











I liked Shrek the Third better. There's just something about him...

King County Reforms for Animal Care

This beautiful Foxhound is one of the lucky ones; when his owner was done with him (maybe used for stud) Jake was dropped off at an animal shelter. But, as the shelter filled up, Jake's time ran out, so, again one of the lucky ones, he was taken into foster care through a local dog rescue group.
Many wonderful animals aren't so lucky; they're neglected, beaten, sentenced to a life as a puppy machine, constantly being impregnated and giving birth, probably while permanently restrained on a short chain (this is a puppy mill). Some dogs are trained to fight through starvation, neglect, and abuse; and some are used as bait for the fighters to practice on, then discarded when the wounds are too severe to bother treating.

Please visit King County Council Member, Julia Patterson's site to learn about her proposed legislation for reform in our county, and, if at all possible, write a letter to her that she can take to the committee to show them that their constituents want reform.
Patterson Motions for Animal Care Reforms

Here is a puppy who wasn't lucky at all; until he was rescued by a local organization. This picture was taken of Benny when he arrived at RED. He had what appears to be chemical burns or steam on 3/4 of his body. He is making great progress and bravely faces his treatments. He also has pneumonia which he is recovering from also. He wags his tail for everyone and is a joy to be a round.

Jake and Benny are both lucky now, as they wait in loving foster homes for their forever families to find them. Though, they are waiting.
