California Assembly Bill 2425, a bill sponsored by Social Compassion in Legislation seeking to address concerns in animal shelters, has been amended to also include regulations on hobbyist dog breeders. The proposal insinuates that people who breed as few as ONE litter are contributing to animal she...

Woofy Acres animal rescue took in animals from Orange County, California, and now it has left them abandoned at Shanderin Kennels where they were staying for the past 2 years. The rescue owes the kennel $40,000. Many of the dogs are stranded and will need new homes or be sent to a high kill shelter.

This alleged no kill animal shelter wants donations so it can sell dogs that have owners not associated with a repossessed shed where the dogs were found.

They have no intention of reuniting lost dogs because the dogs are purebred so they want the money for themselves. They have no intention of using the money they get to help offset whatever cost the people in the shed had accrued.

As you can see in the photos, the dogs are in good shape, somebody yanked on a cord and knocked over things on a table so they can take a photo of the mess they created and blame the people who had the shed.

That no-kill shelter needs to be charged as a criminal for stealing dogs. They have disabled comments on their post about the dogs they stole because too many people were giving them flack for how wrong they were and what they are doing.

Here is an interesting blow for the animal rights propaganda machine. This isn’t a law issue but it does contradict one animal rights theory with some facts.

Analysis finds the carbon footprint of cultivated meat is likely to be higher than beef if current production methods are scaled up because they are still highly energy-intensive

This is a friend of the animal community and a bobcat person who had some really old warrants he didn’t know about.

Police went to James’ house looking for somebody else and when they ran into him, they found 10 to 20 year old warrants for stupid stuff. He needs $1,400 to be bailed out on Friday, unless there’s some miracle to say that he can be released without bail or have the charges dismissed. Because the warrants are in two different counties, it looks like he’s going to have to appear.

He needs a little over $600, now to cover the bail he needs and the GoFundMe fees. If you are friends with him on Facebook, you can go to his Facebook profile to get the updates.

James Harris is the sort of person who teaches us that regular people own exotics and can be very personable but still have regular problems just like the rest of us.

Project Chimps, a Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) sanctuary in Georgia, doesn't meet many of the great ape sanctuary standards set by the Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries (GFAS), so why does GFAS give this facility its highly coveted accreditation?

President Biden is not sides on pork but he is standing up for the United States Constitution’s Dormant Commerce Clause* to allow pork producers to sue California over Proposition 12. Suffice it to say, Wayne has something more to Whyne about.

“The president just mettled with animal farmers in California, but, maybe more significantly, with animal rights activists in the state. According to the Chronicle, the Biden administration asked the Supreme Court to reinstate pork producers’ lawsuit against Proposition 12, a law setting minimum cage standards for pigs, chickens, and veal calves.
…
Wayne Pacelle, president of the nonprofits Animal Wellness Action and the Center for a Humane Economy, “It is shocking that the Biden administration is attacking the rights of states to enact anti-cruelty and food safety laws that are nonexistent at the federal level.””

*The “Dormant Commerce Clause” refers to the prohibition, implicit in the Commerce Clause, against states passing legislation that discriminates against or excessively burdens interstate commerce. Of particular importance here, is the prevention of protectionist state policies that favor state citizens or businesses at the expense of non-citizens conducting business within that state.
