SICKENING PICTURES - DON"T LOOK!
Dear Friend,
I don't mean to offend you with the pictures included in this posting, but the reality of the fur trade allows nothing else.
Why do we need to wear fur real or what we think is fake fur? Do we consider that an animal is killed to get that fur off the body? Well by the end of this message you will look facts right in the face!
WE think they are killed first to skin them but no more then half are skinned alive. YES SKINNED ALIVE!
Reality is heart breaking sickining and horrible. But what must the dogs feel when this is done to them, What your feeling right now from looking at the pictures does not compare! ....remember the name MARC JACOBS
Real Dog Fur Found Labeled as Fake by Fashion Designer Marc Jacobs
Marc Jacobs is in hot water after an investigation indicated that the brand mislabeled real fur as fake and used raccoon dog hair on some of its faux fur.
Marc Jacobs fans and animal rights activists got a bit of a shock this week.

The pictures included with this petition are very graphic..
.Use descrection when viewing.
Taking photos in the “shelter” is forbidden. These photographs were taken secretly. In order to visit you have to say which dog you want to visit. You cannot just go and walk in or walk around. Praca is about 45 km away from Sarajevo, and difficult to get to by public transport, thus making it difficult for anyone to visit to check on activities there.
Praca in 2012
Two months after Praca was built (March 2012, it opened on 30th March 2012) reports said there was no electricity or running water in the “shelter”, that there was no fence around the compound, nobody there during the night, not enough food for dogs, no veterinarian. There were 15 workers and 500 dogs.
The following photographs were taken late last year:
An attempt to publicise the situation (with these photographs) last year did not have any results. After that, we did not know what exactly the conditions were in Praca other than most animal friendly citizens in Sarajevo described it as ‘a concentration camp for dogs’.
Praca in 2013
‘”The picture is scary with creepy sounds and incessant barking. Everything is terribly dirty, unfinished buildings, leaking from all sides…. Stench spreads all around. There are many cages facing each other, divided by a narrow corridor. Almost no light enters most of the cages, cages are in pitch dark during the day. Many cages are floating in water, mud, urine and faeces. Small/young dogs are barking, terrified of bigger dogs that are facing them in opposite cages. Blankets or rugs donated are not used. Workers say: “Don’t you see how much water there is, as soon as we put blankets in or over the cages for cover, they become wet and we have to throw them away … we do not have possibility to wash or dry them …“‘

Concentration Camp for Man’s Best Friend
26
This photograph was taken just a few days
ago in Sarajevo, at the dog “shelter” called ‘Prihvatilište KS Prača’,
commonly known as ‘Praca’. Praca is a private shelter owned and built by
Murai Komerc (a construction company) with contracts with Sarajevo
municipalities to take in dogs from the street (on a per dog basis) and
to provide them with appropriate care.
Below is a photograph of some of the dog pens – in midday.Taking photos in the “shelter” is forbidden. These photographs were taken secretly. In order to visit you have to say which dog you want to visit. You cannot just go and walk in or walk around.

Hi,
I wanted to help the AWABosnia group by making something to sell in their store, but after
checking weighted and flat rate costs to Canada and England from USA.
The cost would be more then the item was worth..
So I took my drawings, graphic arts and pictures I had permission to use and created a store front at CafePress.com
This store will give 20% of the sale to the group if you buy from the store. You will be surprised at the different items for sale there.
This is the link: http://www.cafepress.com/ bosniaanimalrescuers
The profits go directly to the group's paypal account. Anyone who takes pictures, or draws, paints animal themes, I'd welcome digital pictures to use.
If you want a specific item with your picture, I can do special orders.
Here's hoping it will help increase the monies needed by their group for the animals.
Friendly regards -- Nelda If you like Specialty items, Go look at the store.
Any Moneys will help buy tickets for 20 dogs who are in Bosnia but being adopted in England. Buy or just donate.

SHAME ON TEXAS
January 27,2013
Dear Mayor Julián Castro,
San Antonio, Texas, USA
Sir, it has come to my attention that on Tuesday, January 22, 2013, your Animal Care Services Assistant Director Vincent Medley, removed 19 Dogs from a home seizure. Removing the Dogs after months, even a year of knowledge about the abuse these dogs were receiving; you would think the “HUMAINE” thing to do would be remove them yes?…… But no Assistant Director Vincent Medley seemed more interested in creating a scene for the media. He and his staff further traumatized the 19 dogs by using catch poles “DRAGGING” them across the street instead of using crates to remove them.
Watch the video here:
http://www.foxsanantonio.com/newsroom/top_stories/videos/vid_13876.shtml
In my opinion this was a set up for the media cameras. Any person, I refuse to use the word human, as his actions were not humane; that would further traumatize these dogs needs to be fired immediately.
Further, It is my opinion, that instead of releasing these dogs to a non kill shelter, that some drummed up "issue" that requires immediate euthanasia will be used instead of holding the dogs for the duration of the investigation.
Mayor Castro, "YOUR" ACS has a documented history of abusive handling of animals under Medley's leadership. Please, instruct ACS Director Kathy Davis to charge Vincent Medley with animal cruelty and to immediately fire him and the assistants that participated in this shameful event.
Also ask the that the dogs be evaluated by an independent vet before euthanizing them.
Mayor Castro remember what Mahatma Gandhi said "The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the manner in which its animals are treated"
So can the greatness of a Texas City, Lets keep Texas Great.
I am posting my letter to you on facebook
Thank you for your time, I’ll expect some action to be taken on this shameful matter as soon as possible.
