You Can Help Ban Ohio Dog Auctions
The Ohio Dog Auctions Act is a measure whose mission is to help improve the lives of dogs in commercial breeding operations in Ohio. The proposed law would make it illegal for anyone to auction or raffle a dog in Ohio. It also would prohibit bringing dogs into the state for sale or trade that were acquired by auction or raffle elsewhere.
The Coalition to Ban Ohio Dog Auctions plans to gather the more than 120,700 valid signatures of registered Ohio voters by December 1 to place a measure on the November 2011 statewide ballot, giving Ohio citizens the opportunity to end dog auctions and raffles.
If you are interested in helping with this important effort, please attend an informational meeting on Wednesday, September 1, 2010 at 7:30 PM at the Toledo Area Humane Society. Experts on the Dog Auctions Act will be on hand to answer questions about the proposed law and about how to gather signatures to get the Act on the ballot in 2011.

A New Future For Sarge!
On Thursday, August 19, 2010 The Toledo Area Humane Society (TAHS) was granted permission by the Toledo Municipal Court to transfer Sarge, the German shepherd dog who was shot six times on July 9. Sarge will be transferred to Best Friends Animal Society in Kanab, Utah.
Although the specific details of the transfer are not complete, John Brown, TAHS Training and Behavior Coordinator, will likely travel with Sarge to Best Friends Animal Sanctuary and spend several days in Utah working with the Dogtown staff to help transition Sarge to his new home.
The Toledo Area Humane Society is accepting donations to pay for travel for John Brown and Sarge and other expenses related to Sarge's care. If you would like to help contribute to this cause, click here to make a secure on-line donation. Any funds collected beyond expenses directly related to Sarge's care and transport will be used to investigate and prosecute animal cruelty in Lucas County.

Support from the community can have a huge impact in changing the lives of many animals in need. Click here to watch a recent video of Sarge and see how the Toledo Area Humane Society has helped to improve his quality of life.
