It would be irresponsible of Animal Control,
the Board of Supervisors, Veterinary
Professionals and the pet owning community to
fail to weigh the relative costs and benefits
of neutering on the individual animal's
health and well being deciding the age for
such surgery at the right time for that
individual. The decision for females is more
complex, further emphasizing the need for
individualized veterinary medical decisions,
not standard operating procedures for all.

As John Yates from ASDA correctly points to
there was clear intervention from the Humane
Society of the United States in Santa Barbara
County. Â Clearly your staff had input from
outside to push this forward.
"Perhaps it is no coincidence that the
nation's largest animal rights group, The
Humane Society of the United States (HSUS),
appeared frequently in the county during this
period, through consulting work at shelters,
giving a national leadership award to Santa
Barbara state legislator Pedro Nava, praising
Shelter Director Jan Glick for her work on
issues ranging from wild horse rescue to dog
fighting investigations, and working closely
with activist and local veterinarian Dr. Ron
Faoro on failed statewide mandatory
spay/neuter legislation.
HSUS has nothing to do with local humane
societies or helping animals. Instead, it is
a national political lobbying group that
pushes the animal rights agenda. Its head,
Wayne Pacelle, has been quoted repeatedly
expressing opposition to animal ownership and
breeding in any form."

My vet sister (the one with the wild hair!)
has set up a charity going to far-flung
places, where there are too many cats and
dogs and not enough vets, and neutering these
animals for free. This is a local newsclip
of her in Madeira this year. What a star!!
