From my RESCUE friend Hereâ??s the thought/plan, build a letter to be signed by any and all breed specific rescue groups Opposing AB 1634. Weâ??ll be listing numbers on how many weâ??ve pulled from shelters, and how many owner surrenders weâ??ve taken in, therefore keeping the dogs out of the shelters completely! Hereâ??s my Directorâ??s thoughts: Do you know of people in other breed rescues in CA who might have already written who could share what they have written to give us some ideas. We could cosign the letter, I could put it on ABA Rescue stationary and FAX it. We could make the point that those shelters that are willing to work with breed rescues are the ones that are helping reduce the numbers of dogs that have to be euthanized - if you see that point. If you are head of a rescue opposing the bill, and want to join in, or already have sent letters we can â??build off ofâ?? or if you know of other groups that would like to be part of this, let me know! We need to let them know not all rescues are supporting this bill! Deadline is July 2nd, we need to get this going NOW!
