CONCERNS ABOUT RESCUE DOGS OUTSIDE IN TONIGHT'S FLORIDA FREEZE
Who the hell are you anyway? And who are you to be calling me up? Do you have 93 dogs in your rescue? Would you step up and take 25 dogs? No, but I've been an animal advocate for 30 years as well as a TV reporter as well. So I know what I'm talking about. I've got the experience. So who the hell are you to ask that? That's not very... For you to call me up and judge me... I'm not judging you. Excuse me. Talk to my lawyer, you bastard, and stop talking to these two gay guys I fired.
That was Heather Larson. She runs the rescue group, Love My Pitties. And I called her to ask about this: more than three dozen rescue dogs in Levy County, Florida, in the middle of the woods in these outdoor kennels.
And tonight? A freeze warning for the area.
Larson, I'm told, threatened the animal advocates who took the videos after they called the cops. Telling them, quote: "Stop calling the cops on me, you expletive. Expletive. My dogs are fine." So I called, and she told me about the rescue, and I listened and then asked this:
Are you concerned about them being outside with the temperatures expected to dip below freezing tonight?
First of all, temperatures have been below freezing every night for the two weeks. And second of all, no, I'm actually not. Half of these pups have never been in a house in their lives, ever. And once again, they're feral.
They have igloos, tarps, they have hay. They're on rubber mats. They get walked every day. They're not suffering.
I also spoke with the Levy County Sheriff's Office. The deputy telling me the dogs are fine. They may not have heaters, but they have food, water, and shelter, and that they're okay. The dogs appeared to be extremely healthy. No safety concerns. The sheriff's office reassuring me they'll be okay.
But will they? With the cold and also after Larson's verbal tirade attacking me when I never provoked her.
As always, you can have your voice heard. The contact info
Time to get to the shelter and DON’T FORGET YOUR PHONE

Here is the page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/animalsocialmediatakeoverIn the meantime, I promised to go to a shelter and give you some tips on how to work the phone, the tripod, the microphone - OR - just the phone (remember.... keep the phone as close to you as possible because the further away you get from it, the less people will hear you.).I went to the Humane Society in Dartmouth to create a best practices video and you wouldn't believe what happened!Sam and Cooper - 2 brothers - 2 doodles - owner surrendered - They were given to an elderly couple and THAT did not work out. So now these 2 are at the HUMANE SOCIETY SHELTER SOUTHCOAST in Dartmouth, Massachusetts. 508.995.6661Please remember. There are plenty of dogs, cats and other adoptable animals out there that need forever homes and RESPONSIBLE pet parents.Watching you interact with the animals will engage viewers a lot more than just a picture and some stats. Trust me. It works! Let's make this happen and make dreams come true for plenty of animals tomorrow!#ASMT #dogs #cats #animals #adopt

13 dogs might just end up freezing to death tonight in Faulkner County, Arkansas. Locals have stepped in and done as much as they can. The Faulkner County Sheriff's Office says "they don't have space." So please get the word out. #dog #dogs #FaulknerCounty #freezing #freezingtemperatures #rescueanimals #breeder
BREAKING NEWS - URGENT RESPONSE NEEDED Faulkner County Sheriff's Office - Sheriff Tim Ryals - 510.450.4914
Response from Clayton County Police in the case of #JusticeForBasil
After all of the calls made regarding the case of Basil, we have now finally heard from the police department, and here is their video. Remember. Transparency, as they say, is key.
EDIT - I am merely showing you their video response. There is much more to this than meets the eye, and since they finally got back with me through their Facebook video, as I learned decades ago, it’s very important to show every side, and there’s always more than two. And since they posted the video after my video, that’s why I’m posting their video now.

JUSTICE FOR BASIL - CALL TO ACTION - Basil found herself at the Clayton County Georgia animal shelter and was up for adoption. Sadly, surveillance video from inside the shelter shows interactions with local prison inmates who work at the shelter. Allegations of SA. That very same day, we are told, mBasuk was sent to the rainbow bridge. Right now, we’re told local officials are investigating. Other questionable actions by inmates towards the animals at the shelter are under investigation, as well. Captain Kevin Hughes

Justice for Bonnie and Clyde.
A North Carolina woman's highly trained Belgian Malinois' sent to the Rainbow Bridge... these 4-legged family members taken in an instant by a North Carolina State Trooper.
This will not just be one more case of the approximately 10,000 plus dogs killed each and every year by law enforcement.
We know that all a law enforcement officer has to say is that the dogs made them fear for their lives. Trouble is, most law enforcement go right for the gun, the lethal way. Many don't use the non-lethal methods they can fight right next to the gun on their holster.
This is part 1 of their story. Tomorrow, part 2. WHAT STARTED THIS SERIES OF EVENTS?
A stranger rifling through their mom's car.
It's a story that will have you scratching your head asking WHAT?
