October 10, 2007 -- Yet again, some unscrupulous person (or persons) have seen fit to abandon helpless animals in Tehachapi, tying them on the doorstep of the local vet hospital. This morning, when hospital employees arrived for work, there were two dogs tied to the front post... abandoned by their owners. These dogs need a foster home IMMEDIATELY, or they will be sent to the Mojave animal shelter to be put down. One is a young female Pitt Bull, and the other is a black male Corgi type dog. If anyone is able to help these dogs, please call The Tehachapi Vet Hospital at (661) 822-6731. And, if anyone knows who abandoned them, please call the police department and report it.
Canine Creek is taking a stand against the illegal animal abandonment, neglect and hoarding that is occurring in our area at an alarming rate. Tehachapi is a growing city, and we NEED a local animal shelter! We insist that the Tehachapi City Manager and Kern County Board of Supervisors take this issue seriously, and make solving it a priority. Please stop by Canine Creek and sign our Animal Shelter Petition today. If you would like blank copies of our petition form to help us acquire Kern resident signatures, send us a email and we'll forward it to you.
