Sunday, February 7, 2010 - Part 2 ASPCA Once Again Targeted by WAR Activists - Demos Held at both Headquarters & CEO's Residence  Demo #1: ASPCA Headquarters In protest of the execution of Oreo, the "miracle dog" who survived being thrown off a Brooklyn rooftop, only to be nursed to health by the ASPCA then put to death while Pets Alive, an animal sanctuary specializing in troubled and abused dogs, was willing to adopt her for life and further rehabilitate her, activists in New York City visited the home of Ed Sayres - the president of the ASPCA, on late Saturday evening. Additionally, right after Oreo's death, the ASPCA executed another pit bull named Max, and once again a sanctuary, Maria's Promise, stepped forward and offered to take Max and give them a home for life. Once again the ASPCA, under the direction of the unqualified and unlicensed "behaviorist" Victoria Wells and President Ed Sayres, decided to kill the dog anyways and snub the efforts of real *no-kill* organizations who dedicate their lives to animals, not to the image of competence that the ASPCA kills animals to maintain. Following this, the ASPCA responded to a cruelty call for a dog now known as Justice who lived outdoors in Queens NY, in the WINTER, and was suffering from bites from another dog the family had outside, and an advanced and serious case of mange. The ASPCA officer responding said Justice was "fine", and did not remove the dog from the abusive owners. That night a brave rescuer took Justice and brought him to a vet, who treated Justice's injuries and mange, saying Justice would not have survived the night without getting medical care. The ASPCA responded to this rescuer by threatening the person with arrest, and ordering the dog be returned to his abusive home.  Demo #2: Home of Ed Sayres - CEO of ASPCA Until the ASPCA changes their euthanization policies and the parties responsible for Oreo's death - Ed Sayres, the president and Victoria Wells, the unlicensed behaviorist - resign, the protests will continue. Activists are demanding Ed Sayres disclose the entire fill of documentation regarding Oreo before tendering his resignation. "We will never back down..."...chanted the protesters...."...until you stop the killing." Video Clip: |
