DJ Ice & The Pawz Cauze Team
Once again the spotlight is on Denver, Colorado, Forrest the dog held captive, and his owner, Chris; an innocent man who thinks of his dog as his ’son’. Join us as DJ Ice speaks with Dr. Paula Terifaj and Chris LIVE at the protest. Hear as Chris tells his chilling tale of how Forrest was stolen the first time he ended up across the Denver city line and how DENVER forced him to keep his dog locked in a kennel. Now Denver is holding the dog and threatening to euthanize him over the Breed Ban Legislation they passed several years ago that has since resulted in the deaths of hundreds of family pets only because they were guilty of being the wrong breed. Forrest has never hurt anyone. Chris doesn’t even reside in Denver. His place of residence is recorded as being in Adams County; yet Denver feels the need to confine this dog and KILL him!
You hear the words, then you make your decision, then take action. Don’t allow prejudice to win. Stand up and be heard. Stand up for Forrest. Demand that he be returned to Chris.
Please feel free to pass this along and gain as many supporters as possible to stop Denver from killing this dog! Thank you. Below you will find the emails to the city officials and mayor.

Please help us get justice for Hannah!!
Updates to the story will be posted at the bottom. Check back often. I look forward to your feedback and will keep you updated on developments.
Hannah, a four year old German Shepherd was formerly owned by a Tattnall County, GA, K-9 Handler and from a very young aged was used as a breeding machine, confined until her muscles atrophied, starved and neglected. When she was deemed no longer useful, she was surrendered to Animal Control facility in Reidsville, Georgia (about 75 miles southwest of Savannah - in Tattnall County) with orders to euthanize her.
At the time of her surrender, Hannah, known at the time as Haunna, was in horrific condition. She had been starved, was severely emaciated and weighted only 41 lbs. Her pads were so wounded that she walked on her haunches and her fur was rubbed off in many places due to confinement. She was also pregnant and gave birth to three stillborn puppies while at the animal control facility.
On February 7, 2007, she was rescued by the Southern Cross German Shepherd Rescue.
Hannah was taken to a vet and on the way she began to bleed, mostly from giving birth combined with her extremely poor physical condition. Following is a statement from the vet:
Today, I examined Haunna (now Hannah), an approximately four year old GSD. During the examination, it was noted Haunna is severely underweight. On a typical scoring scale, with 3/5 being a normal, healthy weight, Haunna is a low 1/5. This type of body condition is typically only noted in dogs suffering from long-term cancers or long term starvation. No signs of neoplasia (cancer) were noted in Haunna. Haunna had hair loss on her caudal thighs consistent with long term kenneling, skin disease, or both. If you have any questions, or other infomation I can provide, please don’t hesitate to call.
Sincerely,
Will Baldwin, DVM

We have written documentaion from vets proving this abuse. We have results from lab testing, xrays etc.
Nothing could cause this kind of horrible condition, but starvation, long term kenneling, over breeding amoung other types of abuse.
When Hannah gained enough strength she was spayed. She also tested a very strong heartworm positive and is now undergoing Hw treatment.Hannah,s case had to be turned over to the GBI - Georgia Bureau of Investigation, because the person that owned her was associated with the law enforcement in Tattnall county as a K-9 Handler.
Southern Cross and Hannah’s new owner are trying desperately to get justice for Hannah but it is beginning to look like they are trying to either sweep it under the carpet and hope it will go away or cover it up. They have also heard that her previous owner has acquired another dog to replace Hannah as his new breeding machine.
This case is being investigated by the GBI Region 5 Office in Statesboro, Georgia, Atlantic Judicial Circuit District Attorney,s Office in Tattnall County. The District Attorney is Tom Durden. They will not release the name of the abuser, the K-9 handler with Tattnall County. No charges have been brought.
The DA will now not take or return calls regarding this case. Hannah,s new owner has tried to take this case to the media since law enforcement seems unwilling to do anything. She contacted WTOC and initially they were interested in the story, until DA Tom Durden told them that the only reason that Hannah was so emaciated was because she has cancer. Hannah does not have cancer.Why is the law enforcement authorities so unwilling to bring charges against the abuser? Is it because he is a member of law enforcement? Are they trying to cover this up?
Hannah was neglected, abused then tossed away like worthless trash when her owner no longer deemed her useful, ie. able to breed so as to continue to fill his pockets. She still has a long road to recovery and is undergoing treatment for heatworm, a serious and life threatening condition.
Hannah deserves justice!! She is a living, breathing, feeling creature who deserved love and care, not to be thrown away like trash! And just what kind of life is her replacement going to have?Please help us get justice for Hannah!!

UPDATE - 4/23
An attempt was made to post this story to the Tattnall Journal to get some additional coverage and bring it to the public,s attention. This is the response:

Well, I cannot post it online since the incident is
still under investigation and has not been finalized
yet. We know the K-9 handler personally and as usual,
the information out there is not the whole story.
We will run it in the paper when the investigation is
complete.
What I would like to know is, what is the rest of the story? No one seems to want to come forward with it not that I believe there is any way that anyone could possibly come up with a valid reason that a dog could wound up in Hannah,s condition aside from extreme neglect and abuse.It also seems that the identity of the abuser isn’t a secret to everyone, just those trying to get justice done!

Mayor Bill Schneider (I know it is spelled wrong but I really could care less) tried to force and intimidate the board members into getting rid of the library cats. He even tried to stop the live feed that was being broadcast all over the world! He didn’t accomplish either task! Listen here to listen to our debate over the cats. You will also understand that our mayor is a complete self-centered egotistical jerk! In my opinion anyway.
Pawz up!

I know you all are going to be just as angered as I am over this case. The police in Mio, Michigan have yet to even try to find the killers of these search and rescue dogs! Talk about a gross injustice of the American legal system!!!!!! I’m so angry I don’t even know what else to say except listen to this show and you tell me what you think! I’ll be more than happy to forward all of your comments to the Sheriff’s office in charge of this investigation! leigh@thepawzcauze.net
I do have great spam catchers on this email address so if you don’t want your comments to go into a spam folder that I don’t even see, then be sure to put “outraged about dog killing” in the “subject” line of the email.
Pawz Up,
Leigh
