 17 Pasado Safe Haven: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

This week’s guest was Kim Sgro, Executive Director of Pasado’s Safe Haven located in the beautiful state of Washington!  We had a wonderful time although there were a few tear jerking moments.  Here is a quick summary of all we covered:

• Who was Pasado?
• How was Pasado’s Safe Haven established and why?
• Pasado’s Law (passed in 1994)
• Katrina aftermath and rescue insite
• Home for the Howladays
• Mobile spay/neuter program
• Did you know that the Providence of Onterio won’t even allow Pit Bulls to fly over?!?!  What are they afraid of, that the Pit Bulls will have tiny parachutes and will jump from over 10,000 feet or however high the plane is flying and start biting and attacking people?!?!?!?!
• Contact information for organizations that may need the help of Pasado Safe Haven.

There is so much great information, you just may want to have that pen and paper handy to jot down notes, or even better, download the show to your harddrive and save it for future reference.  This show will get you fired up once again over what happened in New Orleans.  I’ll give you a small foresite: there were pets killed and torchured by law enforcement agents and the owners of these animals were told at gun point to leave their animals and evacuate the building.  Then the mass slaughter of these helpless animals began at the hands of people we are supposed to trust and who work for US!  The story is told in this podcast.

We plan to have Kim back on the show the first week of December to discuss in full details the Home for the Howladays program and how you can start one in your community.

Thank you so much for listening to the show!
