This can't be constitutional Carol In a message dated 8/5/2009 8:53:37 P.M. Central Daylight Time, pmick12@xxxxxxxxxxx writes: Ms. Willard was raided by the PSPCA and police due to a first time noise complaint, and told that unless she released 11 of her 23 hounds to them they would seize them all, under a new 12-dog-limit city ordinance. Since that night, despite countless calls and e-mails to the PSPCA, they have refused to reveal the fate or location of the hounds, or let a large number of licensed local basset hound packs and individuals, and several veterinarians, in the five county area take in the hounds. We have been told only that they have been "sent to rescue" to an independant care facility, and that they are under no obligation to tell us anything. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Internal Virus Database is out of date.
