October 2nd was a big day for us, for Anita’s non-profit and for the homeless dogs in Clermont County Ohio. Recall Anita’s leading the effort to save over 90% of all animals entering our County’s Animal Shelter while I’m leading the effort to affect change politically. On October 2nd they both came together when Clermont Pets Alive! (CPA) was awarded the 2013/2014 contract by the Board of County Commissioners as their K-9 Designee. After much patience and a 50 page proposal to the County that was due the 5th of July, CPA was awarded the right to rescue dogs from the euthanasia list at the County Shelter with 24 hours notice. The contract only covers dogs because Ohio law still does not recognize cats as property (a project for another year). Since the 1st list was issued by the local “Humane” Society, CPA has rescued virtually every animal made available (including dozens of cats and kittens).
