APRIL 2008 - ANML-RESQ Newsletter Welcome to the April edition of the ANML-RESQ Newsletter. If you haven't read my blog on Christina's Crusade or our Events web page check out little Christina and her efforts to overcome Noonan Syndrome. Check out what Suzanne is doing to help Christina - check out her web site ...> IT'S OFFICIAL! We have put together the next Bite Prevention Seminar and it will be held on May 24th from 11 am - 3 pm at the Caledon Community Centre in Calendon, Ontario. We will be working in conjunction with Renee Robins of the Owen Sound Animal Shelter and have attended this seminar in the past and found it to be very informative. We hope to see your there - mark it on your calendar. For more information ...> Meet Suzy We'd like you to meet a very special little girl called Suzy.
Suzy is a special needs puppy who is scheduled to have one, and possibly both, of her eyes removed at the end of May. She was born with an abnormality in the eyes. One eye is almost sightless which causes her considerable pain, and the other is virtually dead. Suzy is much loved by her foster mom who is basically acting as her "seeing eye" companion. Suzy rarely leaves her "mom's" side so we would very much like her to stay where she is comfortable and safe. Our vet has estimated the initial surgery will be between $500 and $650 and, since Suzy suffers with chronic infection in her eyes, he may recommend that both be removed. This would put the bill even higher. We are sending out this appeal to raise funds for Suzy's surgery and would be grateful for any donations. More information...> Adoptions of the Month Balou
Have a look at this very handsome, very cute baby boy named Balou. Very cute, right? Take a closer look at the expression. Notice anything? This is the look of a "thinking, determined" young puppy. The look tells it all. He is saying, "hmmmmm, not sure what I think of this situation ... do I listen, and stay sitting and calm? or do I have better things to do? ... like perhaps some "counter surfing", perhaps some naughty behavior to pester my foster sister? He loves everyone he sees, and more often than not forgets his manners and will knock someone over out of shear enthusiasm. Sometimes his enthusiasm gets overwhelming and he will start mouthing, a behaviour he must learn to change. He is a big boy and he knows it! Balou would EXCEL in a sport that can release his energy and make him feel like he is working, as the
Bull Mastiff/Bull Dog breed ARE working breeds. We think Balou would excel in weight-pull activities and he would love learning to pull a cart. These type of activities will help burn energy in a positive way, while providing him with exercise, socialization and a feeling of accomplishment and pride for Balou. OREO I've come a long way to find my forever home, and
I'm ready! My charm, good looks and all around wonderful disposition have landed me a great foster family, where I live with other dogs, a cat, and young kids - I love them all and they love me!

Ask Sassy ~ Ask Sassy a question and she will give you her answer! Dear Sassy:How did you feel about the animal cruelty law that the MP's voted on - Bill S-203? Concerned in Grey Bruce ========================= Dear Concerned in Grey Bruce: I am very disappointed with the outcome of the animal cruelty vote. I cannot believe our MP's voted in this draconian law. Bill S-203 was passed AGAIN after much opposition by animal welfare groups. This Bill does NOTHING to protect animals from cruelty and abuse. This law was enacted over 100 yrs. ago and our parliament chose to pass it without the changes that are so badly needed to protect us. They should be ashamed of themselves. Here are some facts: Bill S-203 does nothing to improve our animal cruelty laws and make them internationally relevant and is not what the vast majority of Canadians want.
Do you know how YOUR member of parliament voted? Find out here www.dontbecruel.ca. It's now time to ask your member of parliament how they voted on this issue. We must send them a CLEAR message. This Bill is ancient and must be revisited and SOON, before more innocent lives are lost and cruelty and abuse are ignored by the very organizations that should be protecting us. I hope this answers your question...
