A bill pre-filed by a Maryland House member would set standards for animal shelters, with the goal of reaching a “save rate” of 90%.
The bill, sponsored by Del. Mark Chang, would require shelters to take a series of steps to reunite animals found as strays with their owners when possible.
The bill would require shelters to make an attempt to identify an animal by checking for license tags or microchips within 24 hours of housing the animal. They would also have to prominently post their hours and the process for owners to recover pets who end up there.

ReplyDeletethe maryland demonicrats are one f'd up group. Ok to kill babies but not animals!
ReplyDeleteSounds good. Wico Humane Society would rather kill animals than have the adopted. Somebody needs to reign them in.

ReplyDeleteThen YOU pay for housing them until they die of natural causes. It's not your call.
Require not only that all pet critters be tagged and vaccinated, but also microchipped. Don't let any pet, rescue, or adoption leave a vet's office or a shelter, or a pet store without a microchip. That's a good place to start.
ReplyDeleteSave the animals, yet people are homeless. Hmmm....
ReplyDeleteThere's a neighbor in our neighborhood that captured a friendly little dog that had escaped from it's kennel (only time), and took it from Worcester County, over to Wicomico county shelter so it could be killed. The dog was not a free range dog, nor was it allowed out of the kennel unless it was on a leash.
ReplyDeleteThe dog was a son-of-a-bitch, but the neighbor was a bitch. The dog's owner got wind of what she did, and was able to retrieve the dog before it could be put down. The "bitch" had removed the dog's collar and tags before she turned it in for destruction. Yep, there are some really nasty people that live among us. And I know who this one is.
