Re: [RC] Humane Society (OT) - Barbara McCrary

We had a similar situation in this area some years ago.  Someone turned in an Arabian horse breeder for neglect of young stock.  As I heard it, the young stock was out in a large pasture.  We all know how "teenagers" go through that gangly stage, and our vet said that was all there was to it.  But the SPCA came to the ranch, rounded up all the horses, trucked them into the SPCA facilities and I suppose fined the owners.  I'm not certain of all the details, but I think it was a rotten situation.  Ultimately, the people moved away, lock, stock, barrel and horses to somewhere in remote northern CA.

Ditto, and they are considered a terrorist organization.  (use fear tactics to gain followers)

After watching the Humane Society in action, I have no respect for how they handle some situations. They raided a neighbor and confiscated her dogs. But, before they did so, they called all the local media, and told them what time they would be there. Then, when interviewed on the news, they were sure to give out their phone number for donations. The dogs were not in trouble, nor were they unfed, or uncared for. Just too many of them. All were fat and healthy. But those "poor dogs" got over $40,000 in donations for the Humane Society. They never contacted the neighbor ahead of time to try to "help" her in any way, just made a huge media production out of it, to get money.  They won't get any of my money.
