jcervone - reading Dennis's letter sounds very convincing but, his organization supported a bill that ONLY took out the dog exemption, nothing else. Nothing was added like weather watches, warnings, states of emergency, etc. The definition of shelter was never modified either. The definition of shelter is poorly written and allows anyone to place a dog in a shelter that does not have a criteria, it didn't address tethering either. I can understand Dennis's reason for wanting to get the bill in, but it lacks any follow up, with information for a better understanding, with any persons who work in this field. It is frustrating to say the least that now reading the bill and being completed irritated that now we wait for the process to take it's course. If the bill is not withdrawn, we wait till it's done and maybe get to put a much better written bill put in next session. The people who work in this field are extremely frustrated by this. We are all advocates for animals in one way or another. It's hard enough to convince people that the bills submitted gets through.

Hopefully in the future Dennis will obtain information before giving it to anyone, we can only wait and see.
