Dear Animal Compassion Networkers,


DTBKHappy Spring! We had our best Dine to be Kind ever this year, raising almost $18,000 for our Betty Fund Spay/Neuter Assistance Program and other life-saving programs! If you know anyone who can't afford to spay or neuter their pet, send them to us! THANK YOU for supporting these important programs!  

 

Just in time for kitten & puppy season, we are excited to announce the third anniversary of our Pet Store for Rescued Pets, Pet Harmony! It has been three years of daily visits and play times with our fostered dogs and cats, three years of selling high-quality food, three years of researching and sharing green and eco-friendly treats and toys, and three years of matchmaking and finding forever homes from our adoption center and retail space on Fairview Street.

PS: As always, Animal Compassion Network is dedicated to keeping you informed about important legislation affecting animals and their welfare. Please read the important message below from the NC Director of HSUS. The animals need our voice!

 

Late yesterday afternoon the Department of Agriculture submitted their budget proposal.  Within the proposal  is the elimination of the Animal Welfare Division.  This would leave our shelters, boarding kennels, pet stores and rescues with no oversight.  Many people are sending emails and asking if they proposed "cut backs" or moving the department elsewhere.  The proposal is to eliminate the Animal Welfare Division completely.

 

The Appropriations Committee (both House and Senate) is responsible for creating the final budget.  The subcommittees considering this proposal in both chambers are Natural and Economic Resources.  They are the groups that we need to contact.  They will consider the proposal, put together a budget and present in a few weeks.  It is critical that they hear from us.  If we do not act it is possible that the Animal Welfare Division will be cut.  This would be devastating to NC and our animals.

 

The North Carolina Voters For Animal Welfare team has kindly set up a link to the legislators in the Appropriations Committees and the subcommittees that we need to contact.  Please click on the attached link and contact them today:  http://ncvaw.org/elimination-of-shelter-oversight/
