Victory For Delaware's Dogs

Thanks to your calls and emails, Senate Bill 211 passed the House yesterday 32 to 8, banning continuous tethering of dogs. Your voice was heard!

We are grateful to sponsors Senator Patricia Blevins, Senator Karen Peterson, Representative Earl Jaques, and Representative Melanie George Smith for their leadership; as well as to all the legislators who voted in favor of this bill. SB 211 now returns to the Senate for the procedure of alignment, and then will head to the Governor for signature in July.

It is a great day for the dogs in Delaware!
