information about 101 wire fox > terriers that had been rescued from deplorable conditions just outside > Montreal, Canada. Some of those wires were put down because of the > condition they were in. Jounalists responding to the story were vomitting > at the scene- the house they came from was condemed and knocked down- that > says a lot.>> The person, Marc Andre LaPorte who was responsible for these dogs was > recently tried by Canadian courts and found guilty of animal cruelty- he > faces a slap on the hand with a mere $4000 fine and a few days in jail. As > hidious as this is- the worse is that he has requested that 18 of those > dogs be returned to him, On Feb. 22, 2008 (just a week away) he will be > sentenced. At the same hearing, the judge is to decide if Laporte is to > get any of his fox terriers back!>>> These dogs are learning to be real dogs- some of

these dogs lost their > eyes because they had never seen daylight and now they are learning to be > part of families- learning to eat, learning to be touched and learning how > to be loved. Now they may be taken from these wonderful new homes and > placed back in the house of horrors they were rescued from. Imagine making > these dogs go back- imagine being one of the families who have had to > rehabilitate a dog only to have it taken from you to be put back to > horror.>> A remarkable friend of mine has spearheaded a writing campaign to the > judge and a petition asking that no dogs be returned to this monster. The > goal is 10,000 signatures- we still need just 286 signatures.> PLEASE TAKE JUST A MINUTE TO SIGN THIS PETITION and if you are so > inclined, please pass this on to your friends and ask them to join us.>> For the petition->
