Paws Cause Alert

HSL is hard at work helping victims of animal abuse and neglect this summer, with a series of New Orleans fundraisers and activities called 'The Emily Events'. Designed to raise urgently needed funds for and awareness of our cruelty investigation and prevention programs, the events take their name from Emily, the very sweet, severely neglected dog pictured here. Her former owners have been charged with cruelty in St. John parish, and we are monitoring her case through the court system. St. John parish animal control workers contacted us about Emily's plight, and we agreed to take custody of her, to give her the second chance at life she so richly deserves. Lovely Emily is just one face among countless thousands, who suffer and die each year, unseen and unheard-the victims of neglect, cruelty and abandonment. With your help, we can reach more of them and save these precious lives. Please support the 'Emily events' and the businesses who are taking up our cause!
