		<description><![CDATA[Tari Moore and company has decided to keep the Buddy for Life contract. She specifically stated to me in an email that she encourages all publicity and wants to hear from any citizen any problems/concern that anyone has with A Buddy for Life or Animal Control Services. Her phone number is 410-996-5202. Her email address is tmoore@ccgov.org.  Tari Moore has been offered assistance with plans to start with a new county run animal shelter.  The animals currently at Rainwood Kennel belong to AB4L. So, sever the 60,000 monthly tax dollars the Buddies continues to misappropriate and use for their rescue now. 

Moore&#039;s statement to me 13 months ago was that they were were trying to straighten out the 8 day stray hold payment. That should have been figured out by by 01/31/13 when they saw the first monthly statement and realized that the Buddies had no intention to do any fundraising or grant writing. As a matter of fact, the Buddies do receive some online financial monthly donations through a program called Give Back America. They did not report that on their yearly financial just a they did not report several donations I gave in early 2013. I questioned this at an oversight committee meeting and never got an answer.

Mr. Sammons, if I hear that you are shooting a pellet gun at a cat I will make a personal effort, not with the the effort of our useless animal control, to have you charged with felony animal abuse.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I think there are two very serious issues here: 1) A gross misappropriation of tax dollars and 2) Animal abuse and neglect.  These statements have been repeatedly made, by numerous individuals, and have basically gone unaddressed and unresolved.  This has been allowed to continue for far too long and has become overwhelming and cruel, as can be seen in photos recently taken by The Guardian.  Anyone who can call the treatment of those animals on the 2nd floor at Rainwood Kennel humane needs to do some serious soul searching and, if an employee of ABFL, they should probably look for a different, better suited, occupation (one that doesn&#039;t deal with living, breathing beings).  Those photos do not depict a &quot;rescue&quot; but would better qualify for an episode on Hoarders. 

We all know, and most agree, the Animal Control Contract with A Buddy For Life should have never happened and while there were three who allowed this to come to fruition there is now one who holds the power to end this debacle.  To remain politically correct, or to save political face, should not override common sense and morality. There are real solutions and honest rescues who would step in and assist with re-homing efforts so, at this point, it&#039;s not a question of how, it&#039;s a question of when!]]></description>
