Candlelight Vigil Saturday, April 5, 2008 from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the Carson Animal Shelter

    untitled-1-copy.jpg

During fiscal year 2007, the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control killed 52,800 of the 85,975 animals they impounded.

That’s a 61.4% kill rate.

Those animals deserve to be more than just a statistic. Join us in remembering the animals killed by the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control in a candlelight vigil on Saturday, April 5, 2008 from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the Carson Animal Shelter.

On Sunday, April 6, 2008, Los Angeles County shelters will be closed to the public, and that is when the most killing will take place. This candlelight vigil will also remember those animals that will be killed on Sunday.

The candlelight vigil will feature speakers who had animals that they were going to rescue or adopt needlessly killed by the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control and those who had animals they were going to rescue or adopt die at a Los Angeles County shelter due to the neglect of the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control.

If you’d like to speak at the candlelight vigil or to RSVP, contact Ryan Olshan at Ryan.Olshan@strongtypes.com.

Marine Mammals and Birds Stranded on Beaches to Increase. All Angelenos can help!

NEWS RELEASE

City of Los Angeles _ Department of Animal Services 221 N. Figueroa Street, Suite 500, Los Angeles, California 90012 / www.LAAnimalServices.com

CONTACT: Public Relations Office FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 310-560-6284 March 24, 2008

Marine Mammals and Birds Stranded on Beaches Expected to Increase LA Animal Services Warns: Leash Your Dogs! 

Los Angeles – Marine mammal stranded on beaches are expected to increase over the next 3 to 4 months. One sensitive location for migratory sea birds and marine mammal strandings is the North Channel area in Venice/Marina Del Rey.

Lifeguards have reported as many as 50 free roaming dogs at any one time in this area. Free roaming dogs pose a significant risk to the health and safety of these animals. All Angelenos are reminded they must comply with the City’s Leash Law. LA Animal Services is increasing patrols in the Venice Beach area and will cite leash law violators.

Recently a reported hypothermic seal attempting to beach at the North Channel area was forced to retreat into the ocean by over 20 free roaming dogs. Rescue efforts were thwarted by citizens who allow their dogs to run free in violation of the leash law.

Two years ago, dogs prevented a domoic sea lion from beaching, chasing her into the water each time she tried. The animal ultimately drowned. Domoic causes seizures and disorientation, if a sea lion is not allowed to beach, it will most likely drown.

Marine Animal Rescue has rescued 49 marine mammals so far in 2008, with 7 marine mammals and 6 sea birds rescued just this past weekend.

The majority of the birds rescued are Oiled Grebe’s. Grebe’s hips are placed so far back on their body that they cannot move well on land and become easy targets for playful or aggressive dogs. Harbor Seals and Elephant Seals cannot climb well which explains why these animals are seldom seen on the rocks; they need the beach.

Dogs are susceptible to diseases (Leptospirosis or Bruceloss) when they come in contact with Sea Lions. Sea Lions have been known to inflict fatal bites to dogs.

For 20 years, Marine Animal Rescue volunteers, working in concert with LA Animal Services, has come to the aid of entangled or beached whales, dolphins, seals, sea lions and sea birds along the California coast. Marine Animal Rescue volunteers have rescued thousands of marine animals. For more information on this organization visit: http://www.whalerescueteam.org/.

City Council votes to require spaying or neutering for dogs and cats that are 4 months or older.

By Carla Hall, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
2:33 PM PST, February 1, 2008

The Los Angeles City Council voted 10 to 1 today to approve mandatory sterilization of most pets at the age of 4 months or older - a decision greeted by cheers and applause from the crowded room at the Van Nuys City Hall - where the council meets the first Friday of every month.

The bill must get a second reading in a week, but it is expected to pass. A parade of supporters and opponents of the bill spoke passionately to the council, but in the end, the measure passed, with the sole dissenter being Councilman Bill Rosendahl.

He told the council that he was an animal lover, but he professed outrage at the thought of animal control officers knocking on the doors of people’s homes, calling it a “fascist-like” move.

The city has said enforcement of the measure, which affects dogs and cats, will be very low key.”Compassion rules the day!” exclaimed Judy Mancuso, who runs the campaign to pass a similar law on the state level and was one of more than 100 people at today’s meeting.”

I’m deeply disappointed,” said Cathie Turner, the executive director of Concerned Dog Owners of California. “We have to think about what to do next. The mission of our organization is to protect the health of our dogs.

The City Council has passed a bill that will force 95% of Angelinos to live with impaired dogs - not because they’re spayed and neutered, but because they’re spayed and neutered at the wrong age. “The organization believes the decision on when to spay or neuter, if at all, should be left to owners.
“Mandatory spay-neuter is a necessity,” said former game show host Bob Barker, who has donated millions to subsidize the sterilization procedure. “For decades I closed every ‘Price Is Right’ urging viewers to have their pets spayed. . . . I’d like to think all of us working together would be enough. But it’s not enough. We need legislation.”

His remarks were greeted with applause and hoots of approval. The parade of speakers supporting the legislation included INXS band member Garry Beers, who told the council that his wife works with a rescue organization.

“I have seen the hopeless cause these people face trying to find homes for these animals,” Beers said.

Other rescuers echoed his remarks, emphasizing the overwhelming nature of the task of finding homes for unwanted pets.

“I would like my guest house not to be a permanent foster facility,” said Elizabeth Oreck, who works with a private rescue group. “I would like my taxes to be spent on something other than the housing and killing of animals.”
