Good luck! I don’t mind stir the proverbial pot when I see something wrong, especially if it concerns animals and children. Keep good documentation and pictures if you can. Pictures are worth a thousand words as they say, and that really helped us to get attention and action on those starving horses-though basically the DA’s office had to tell someone to do their job, and PETA bombarded them with phone calls. Also, try to get other people to call in the complaint and document.

Another thing you can do is contact the DA’s office. I spoke to one of the assistant DA’s last summer on some starving horses, sent pictures and documentation of all the contacts I had made. It mad the so-called animal cruelty agency get off their behinds, though it never made the media. Thankfully, the horses look much better now, and I do check often and would not hesitate to start a media blitz or contact the DA’s office again. I also got PETA involved on several concerns, and they made some nice phone calls. I don’t agree with everything PETA does, but they did help getting some issues resolved. You can email them through their site.

Well ,RMSEEK1234 it went about like you said. Haven’t heard a thing from the SPCA and the Saraland animal officers came out and took pictures and said there was nothing they could do if the animals haven’t been abandoned.There’s only two left now,the third one has disappeared. Some neighborhood kids said it had died,but that is here say,since I didn’t see it. Maybe all the attention will get them some food and water from their owners. I managed to sneak one of them some bread the other day while no one was around. I haven’t given up,I’m still trying.

We have a case similar to this one in our neighborhood. The dog looks to be of the same breed but not quite as bad of shape as this one.we are trying to get in touch with the SPCA but no one answers the phone at 633-3531,but i don’t think anyone is there except tues. thru sat. I am sure people show as great a concern and greater for children ,though there is a lot of people that don’t like to get involved or be called nosy. I call myself nosy and tell all the neighbors to consider me a nosy neighbor if it involves children or crime and I’m not afraid to step in and say something or call who ever nesscessary.Most of the neighbors appreciate this and often leave a number in cases where they might be gone for a day or two. Nosy neighbors are a good thing when it comes to abuse of any kind or crime.
