Host of The Pawz Cauze to be at animal abuser sentencing

On April 2, 2010, host and founder of The Pawz Cauze Show, Rev. Dr. Leigh ‘Ice’ Foster, is scheduled to make a live appearance at the sentencing hearing of Glynn Damon Johnson, the man convicted of killing 6 month old puppy, Karley.  For the full story please visit: http://www.justice4karley.com.   After the sentencing, Ice will be presenting a special handmade gift to the Toole family and presenting Pawz Applauze Winner, Scott Kolodge, with a special gift package.  She will also be signing copies of her books for those who show up with them.  You can purchase a book at http://www.lulu.com/fostersforum.

Here is a copy of an email Ice sent to some of her closest friends:

Anyone who wishes to have your opinions heard by Glynn Johnson about what he did to Karley; please feel free to email me and I will print them out and personally hand them to the proper authorities to give to him.  Please do not name call or use offensive language because those may not be given to him.  Please use intellect and a calm attitude to display your extreme disappointment in the way he acted and the decisions he has made.  These type of emails seem to have a greater effect on the convict because it forces him/her to face the reality of the actions where rude, mean, and negative emails cause anger which gets no where.  You may also wish to write the judge and jury to thank them for their decision and their compassion for Karley and her family.  I will be happy to hand deliver these as well. 

If you wish to be included in this opportunity to voice your opinions, please send your email to: ice@thepawzcauze.net and make sure to place in the ’subject line’: ‘Email for Glynn Johnson’ or ‘Email for Judge and Jury’.  No emails with curse words or name calling will be printed out and given to the person.  Please keep this in mind when writing your email.

Pawz Up,

1. MAKE SURE TEXAS TECH ENDS LIVE CAT LABS FOR GOOD
http://www.kinshipcircle.org/letter_library/letter_new.asp?LetterID=1871&seriesfirst=true
For two decades, Tech University Health Science Center (TTUHSC) trainees

2. TIME SENSITIVE! NEW TRIAL: 11/24/09
NO JUSTICE FOR 7 DOGS WHO DIED INSIDE HOT VAN?
http://www.kinshipcircle.org/letter_library/letter_new.asp?LetterID=1844&seriesfirst=true

AN ANONYMOUS SOURCE SENT THIS UPDATE TO KINSHIP CIRCLE:
From: note@note2email.com / Date: Fri, 20 Nov 2009
Nov. 24 is new trial date for Mary Wild, charged with killing 7 dogs in an
overheated van. This trial has been postponed several times and has dropped
off the press radar. Several sources recently confirmed that Mary Wild [the
dog handler who left 8 dogs overnight in a scorching van; all died but one]
will attend the Kankankee, IL dog shows Nov 28-29. This is AFTER her trial,
so does she expect to be let off free? Or does she know the trial will be
postponed again? I hope this case does not disappear into oblivion… Many
people are appalled at what happened but are afraid too speak out for fear
of retribution from the Wild family. Signed: A concerned dog lover


3. RELEASE CANCUN TIGERS FROM MISERY
http://www.kinshipcircle.org/letter_library/letter_new.asp?LetterID=1861&seriesfirst=true

4. GET SERIAL CAT KILLER OFF NEW YORK STREETS
http://www.kinshipcircle.org/letter_library/letter_new.asp?LetterID=1865&seriesfirst=true
Sean Lynde killed girlfriend Rachael Strate’s four cats. In October 2008, he

5. TWO DOGS SHOT AT POINT BLANK RANGE IN NEW YORK
http://www.kinshipcircle.org/letter_library/letter_new.asp?LetterID=1867&seriesfirst=true
Robert Bushnell confessed to police on 9/30/09 that he killed Amy Tubbs’ two
dogs. He fired two bullets into Rocky, a 5-year-old Alaskan malamute, and a
single bullet into Mocha, a 7-year-old chocolate Labrador retriever…


6. SHOT IN THE DARK - AUSTRALIA’S KANGAROO MASSACRE
http://www.kinshipcircle.org/letter_library/letter_new.asp?LetterID=1828&seriesfirst=true
Australia’s wildlife culls are permitted to take up to 10,000 kangaroos per
night. Babies found in a slain mother’s pouch may be decapitated with a
sharp blade. Older joeys are bludgeoned or shot at point blank range…


7. SAVE GRAY WOLVES SO WE CAN SLAUGHTER THEM?
http://www.kinshipcircle.org/letter_library/letter_new.asp?LetterID=1854&seriesfirst=true
Montana opened fire on 9/15/09. Idaho’s race to kill its wolves began

Americans salvaged from near extinction?

http://www.kinshipcircle.org/letter_library/letter_new.asp?LetterID=1850&seriesfirst=true
Seven undercover investigations have exposed horrific HLS abuse: Technicians
push naso-gastric tubes into dogs’ lungs, drowning them. Animals dangling
from slings or cowering in cages are left to seize, vomit and collapse…


9. STOP THE MILITARY’S WAR ON INNOCENTS
http://www.kinshipcircle.org/letter_library/letter_new.asp?LetterID=1821&seriesfirst=true
Every year the U.S. Department of Defense wounds and kills hundreds of
thousands of animals — exhausting taxpayer dollars to amputate goats’ legs,
bomb pigs, and inject monkeys with toxins to mimic nerve gas strikes…


10. MUTILATED SHARKS ARE THE MAIN INGREDIENT IN FIN SOUP
http://www.kinshipcircle.org/letter_library/letter_new.asp?LetterID=1856&seriesfirst=true
Until fishermen stop severing fins and dumping mutilated sharks at sea, many
species remain vulnerable to extinction. An estimated 73 million sharks are
killed annually — most sold for shark fin soup, an Asian delicacy…

6 Week Old Kitten Dies From Abuse by Grown MEN!!!!! PETITION

Link to Petition: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/cuddles-dies-from-torture

===========Please forward to friends==============

Dear Friends, I have just read and signed the petition: “Cuddles Dies From Torture”. She was only 6 weeks old and had no idea why she was cruely and brutally murdered.  She lived a short time after her torture to feel only pain.  Her tiny body couldn’t take it anymore so she joined so many other tortured animals on the other side of Rainbow Bridge.

Please take a moment to read about this important issue, and join me in signing the petition. It takes just 30 seconds, but can truly make a difference. We are trying to reach 10,000 signatures - please sign here: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/cuddles-dies-from-torture

Once you have signed, you can help even more by asking your friends and family to sign as well.

Thank you!

Pawz Up,

Leigh

Justice For Benet abuser address and phone numbers included!

Target:

Because a cause like this deserves to be known WORLWIDE

Sponsored by: 

El Campito Refugio Canino

Not long ago, at around 2:00 PM an image struck the neighbors of Ezeiza (Buenos Aires, Argentina): Benet ran desperately, covered in flames, between the houses. The agonizing scream and cry of Benet caught the attention and compassion of everyone.

Benet was very well known around Ezeiza and it is why the ones who cared for him have done so ever since that day. It was because of their love that Benet is alive today and it is because of their love that he wants to keep living.

He still has two more months of recovery, but his hope is still intact. His right side and his abdominal are what the vets are really concerned about and even though he hasn’t lost his entire sigh, he can’t see without blurs because of the burns on his eyes.

Till today, Ricardo Eckerd tries to continue his normal routine in Ezeiza, but can’t. Or might we say: they don’t let him. Since the brutal attack became public he doen’t stop getting home calls, cellphone calls, letters, mails, texts, you name it. He doesn’t seem to mind that his neighbors have completely broken down his white Ford because he had it fixed a few days after. Of course, not without threatening the entire neighborhood: “Before leaving the neighborhood I’m gonna kill one of them”, he promised; “I’m gonna leave them handicapped”, he said to the people protesting outside his house. He suggests that the dog will “return to the neighborhood” so that he could “light him on fire once more”.

His words and reaction did not surprise the neighbors of course. He had a record for public violence.

After realizing that his Cocker had gotten pregnant he decided to take revenge on the author of the cause: Benet. So he called the dog and poured gas all over him. A little kid was watching as he did this and Ricardo said to him: “Now, you’re gonna see what I do”. His first attempt to light fire failed. Benet felt fear and tried to run and escape but Ricardo ran after him and tried to light him for the second time. And this time it worked.
