IN LIEU OF MY BUSINESS COLUMN THIS MONTH I WILL BE DISCUSSING ANIMAL KILL SHELTERS.
My Father used to say “It’s only the beginning” so let’s start from the beginning.
I love all animals and 45 years ago I became a vegetarian. I was staying in Aruba and on the beach there were many stray dogs. It was a sad site to see. I was very moved by this and in the evenings, when my wife was in the casino with our friends, I would bring some of the dogs into my Cabana and bring in food for them. I was very depressed by this. When my wife realized what I was doing she told me I was having a breakdown. As a result..no more meat, fish or chicken.
A few months later we left on another vacation to California. Walking in Beverly Hills I noticed someone riding a bike with a license plate “Doris”. I ran after and sure enough it was Doris Day.
She spoke to us about her involvement in animal rights and the North Shore Animal League on Long Island. We took pictures with her, which is hanging in my office today.
When we returned home to Long Island I volunteered for three years at North Shore trying to get the dogs and cats adopted.
I would like to do something for animals that are in kill shelters. Their policy is to euthanize any animal that is not adopted after 7 days. My dream is not to have any kill shelters and keep animals until they are adopted.
If any of my readers have any suggestions or know of any person I can contact, please let me know. No healthy animal should be “put down”. Remember a dog is your best friend.
On my radio program Getting Ahead in Business on airing Sunday’s on FoxSportsnJ I have the following guests: Peta, Somerset Rescue, Funny Farm, Standardbred Retirement. In the coming weeks there will be representatives from other animal shelters.
Together let’s find a way to extend the life of animals at these No Kill Shelters.
NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE!
