Sick Puppies used for Profits

In January of 2023, the Humane Society of Northeast Georgia requested $1 Million save the lives of thousands of cats and puppies Over $1 Million in funding was supposed to be dedicated to saving the lives of animals in Georgia and throughout the United States. However, the Humane Society and the Best Friends Society have deceived all of us. The abused animals in Atlanta, Augusta and the State of Georgia deserve access to safe homes and healthcare. Thousands of animals are dying because of the misappropriation of animal funds intended for puppies and kittens. Eliminate the fake contracts to relatives and save lives!!!!

The funds that were donated by taxpayers and donors across the United States has been fraudulently diverted to spurious secret funds, mysterious contractors and executive salary increases. Fraudulent practices have repeatedly put our community's animal’s health and family wellbeing at risk through their negligent actions.

and the money has been redirected to unrelated purchases while the animals suffer and die. Since that time, Augusta Animal Services eliminated their community outreach initiatives and efforts to provide homes for stray kittens and cats because they were given a promise from the Humane Society of Northeast Georgia that thousands of cats and puppies would be placed into foster homes and additionally hundreds of cats would be spayed and neutered. Less than 10% of the goal for fostering and animal saves has been achieved. Our community volunteers observed animals being transported in cramped economy cars and stuffed into small rooms.

The commitment of the Humane Society and Best Friends to the animals of Georgia has been weak, fraudulent and sporadic. For example, the Augusta City Council was promised that the neglected animals of Augusta would receive a mobile unit to perform health checks, emergency medical transportation and free animal medical services. Over $750,000 was given in advance to the Humane Society of Northeast Georgia to lease a small facility, hire staff and purchase transportation. The van was purchased 5 months ago and our volunteers have photos of the vehicle sitting in a Gainesville, Georgia parking lot. Our volunteers begged Allison Mayfield the CEO of the Humane Society to honor the true purpose of the mobile unit funding and deliver it to Augusta and she has ignored our volunteers request for the sick animals.

Fraudulent Family Friends posing as Puppy/Cat Kennel Contractors

Our community volunteers begged Ms. Mayfield to lease a facility in Augusta to facilitate the housing and health of the animals in our small town since she received a $1 Million contract. We even submitted a list of 20 vacant facilities for her review to stop the euthanasia of the animals. After 7 months she finally committed to a facility but she gave the renovation contract to her family friend that refused to complete the kennel even though she gave him thousands of dollars in advance.

Illegal Activity and Animal Waste
When the community members questioned the contractor about his refusal to completed the project, he stated that he was a friend of the CEO and he would finish when he had spare time. Then when he did not finish the job, Ms. Mayfield gave her son thousands of dollars to complete the work even though he was not a licensed contractor and had never built a kennel in his life. He bragged about the contract because he said his mom can do whatever she desires because the board is in her back pocket. He told one of our volunteers that he will not finish the job until next year because he has another fulltime position. The lives for neglected animals will be neglected while the CEO’s son enjoys two salaries and finishes the kennels at his leisure.
