Dogs are chained outside day after day, without adequate shelter, food or water. Heat exhausted and dehydrated to death in summer, frozen to death in winter. Who is responsible The very pet owners who think that dogs can tolerate any outside condition. It is not acceptable for man\'s best friend to live his entire life, outdoors only. With no benefit of love and companionship they desire and deserve. Dogs want nothing more than to make their people happy. Sadly, they are neglected time after time. Tell the lawmakers in the Pennsylvania Congress, that you want real change in dog laws. Tell them that you want enforceable laws that prohibit dog chaining , or tethering, of any kind. Tell them that you want compassionate law officials that care about all creatures. Dogs are members of our family. Let\'s treat them so. Thank you

I am currently organizing the specific legislative language regarding tethering practices to present to the Pennsylvania Congress committees. I have requested formal meetings with three key representatives to discuss these draft amendments. Expect a summary of their replies once they confirm their availability.

The increase in support has moved this issue into the active category for several state representatives. We are finalizing our formal proposal for the legislative session and will submit it to the appropriate committee offices by the end of the week.

I promote 100% the prohibition of dog chaining or tethering of any kind. And want to show my support for dog rights.
