[SDCPJ] Rally Set at SD Humane Society

Re: San Diego Humane Society .   We are calling for answers to questions that have been raised by the investigative news coverage (10 News and the SD Union-Tribune) of the SDHS as well as in a letter signed by 11 former Board Members.   We acknowledge the hard work and dedication of the employees and volunteers of the SDHS. We acknowledge the Society's important and long-standing place in the San Diego animal welfare community. However, we also believe it is important that no one is above public disclosure and scrutiny, especially a non-profit that depends on donations and grants for funding and that deals with the lives of our animal companions.   On behalf of the animal community, we ask for answers to the troubling questions raised in these investigations.   The San Diego Animal Defense Team sdanimaldefenseteam.blogspot.com  --- On Thu, 9/23/10, J/M <keafs2@yahoo.com> wrote: From: J/M <keafs2@yahoo.com> Subject: Animal Defense Team/Call for Truth To: keafs2@yahoo.com Date: Thursday, September 23, 2010, 3:47 PM The San Diego Animal Defense Team   In response to the investigations of the San Diego Humane Society by Channel 10 News  and the SD Union-Tribune and the courage of rescues, volunteers and former SDHS Board Members for speaking out, we issue:   A CALL FOR TRUTH & TRANSPARENCY   SUNDAY, OCTOBER 3, 2010 1 PM - 3 PM on the sidewalk in front of the San Diego Humane Society 5500 Gaines St., San Diego   Please forward to all who care about San Diego County's animal community. Dogs welcome. Bring signs. Sign suggestions:   Why was euthanasia not ended by 2005, as promised?     Why are most of your animals not on public view?   Where is your low-cost spay and neuter program?   Why do behavior tests sentence so many dogs to death?   Where do the millions in donations go?   What are executives paid?   What about the sexual harassment suit settled with SDHS funds?   Please don't park in the Humane Society parking lot. There is street parking available nearby.  The Morena/Linda Vista Green Line trolley stop is about 2 1/2 blocks away.    Updates will be on http://sdanimaldefenseteam.blogspot.com
