WHO IS PAT DUNAWAY?

During a visit to Austin, a reporter lashed out at me for questioning the city’s effort and those of the shelter and posed questions of an inflammatory and defamatory nature. BOOKS – NATHAN J WINOGRAD For the vast majority of people, the bond they share with their dog or cat companion is born of love and mutual affection. But according to the loudest voices in the American animal rights movement today, living with companion dogs and cats is a “necessary evil” at best; at worst, it is a relationship between “master” and “slave” and those animals would be better off if they did FOLLOW THE (LACK OF) MONEY Follow the lack of money. For the small percentage of poor people who do not initially get the free care offered for their pets (about 10%), Rowan and Arluke speculate that the state’s history with eugenics that forced black women to get sterilized is to blame. The evidence for this proposition is weak, with the authors admitting that it is THE NO KILL EQUATION Two decades ago, the concept of a No Kill community was little more than a dream. Today, it is a reality in many cities and counties nationwide and the numbers continue to grow.And the first step is a decision by a shelter’s leadership: a commitment to reject kill-oriented ways of doing business, to replace a regressive, anachronistic 19th century model of failure with 21st century

NO KILL 101

In a video created for rescuers, shelter managers, government officials, and taxpayers, No Kill 101 explains why the readily-available, cost-effective programs and services of the No Kill Equation hold the key to creating not just No Kill communities, but a No Kill nation.

THE END OF BSL

The End of BSL. Part I of a series of 2018 animal news in review. Me in Austin, TX, which has made headlines of its own this year. In 2009, 7% of dogs were killed in the Austin municipal shelter ostensibly for “aggression.”. In 2015, it was 1%. In 2018, it is 1/20th of 1%. Early in the new year, I’ll be doing a radio interview THE BUTCHER OF NORFOLK (6TH EDITION) The Butcher of Norfolk (6th Edition) Slaughterhouse: slaugh·ter·house (slôtr-hous): n. A place where animals are butchered. The numbers are in. In 2011, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) impounded 760 dogs. They killed 713 of

them.

157 MILLION REASONS TO GO NO KILL A new study out of the University of Denver offers 157 million reasons for a city to embrace No Kill. The exact number — or rather, dollar value — is $157,452,503. That’s the total positive economic impact the City of Austin, TX, has realized since passing Resolution 20091105-040, the “No Kill plan.”

WHO IS PAT DUNAWAY?

During a visit to Austin, a reporter lashed out at me for questioning the city’s effort and those of the shelter and posed questions of an inflammatory and defamatory nature. PETA IS A “TERRIFYING AND DESENSITIZING” “CULT” Ultimately, the culture was terrifying and desensitizing — and I gradually felt that my view of death, of taking animals’ lives, was being warped, my emotions being stripped away.
