They should use up some of the vacant properties in Elkton, not come into a residential community so animals will get dumped off and the community will suffer. As an animal lover, what I see going on has nothing to do with what is best for the animals. It’s all about power. Shame on Cecil County for letting this happen.

Not only have they been deceitful from the first RFP submission, they have been blatantly dismissive, unethical and arrogant in their actions as the vendor for animal control in Cecil County. Buddy for Life has been a nationwide embarrassment to our County and yet they are allowed to continue to serve in their dysfunctional and unqualified capacity as animal control agents.

Another “temporary” solution needs to be considered and people who are truly concerned need to inundate the County Executive’s office with letters, phone calls, etc. asking that this extension be re-evaluated and a better alternative be provided to the citizens of Cecil County. Oversight, and the quarterly public meetings, of this vendor need to be re-established now. If not, our County is being as deceitful as the vendor that is being paid with our tax dollars.
