City hearing has been rescheduled for THIS TUESDAY at 10:00a.m. If you live within the City limits, this is your last chance to hang on to your rights and prevent being slapped with a mandatory spay/neuter law. And if you DON’T live in L.A. City, you can be sure that if it passes, you WILL be next, plus the chances of the revamped AB1634 getting through will be MUCH greater. Already spay/neuter? Good for you, but it should be YOUR choice, if and when YOU decide to do so. Since when do politicians have the right to ORDER the removal of your infant pets’ bodily parts through invasive surgery? Is that really OK with you???? Do you even want to LOOK down that slippery slope? Because when you get to the bottom, take a look around. Where’s that soft furry bundle to welcome you home, join you at the park, the hiking trail, the agility course, the herding corral, the obedience trial, the show ring...? Gone, folks, all GONE. Period. And it’ll be way too late by then to do anything about it. This is crucial. You can take a day off work to fight for the right to own dogs in your future, and your kids’ future. Because that IS what this is all about. The Animal Rights groups have been working steadily for DECADES to sever our relationship with animals. They have the money and the power to push through their sick agenda. And they are WINNING! But think how many people in this country own pets. We outnumber the AR’s BY FAR, but it won’t matter if we don’t get together to fight them. We need numbers! Faces, bodies, real PEOPLE, standing united to let the world know this is NOT going to go down quietly. Don't rely on everyone else to make a difference! Round up your friends...take your neighbors...pick up people on your way...invite some homeless...we all have pets!! Don't wait to get involved until it’s too late. Take a personal day, take a vacation day, take a sick day. Whatever it takes! Bob Barker will be there for sure, spouting his pro-MSN mantra, so take a leaf out of ol’ Bob’s book, and: “COME ON DOWN!!!” Here are the details for Tuesday...
