ARC's newly constructed pole building will have the capability to house 17 more dogs, in addition to the 8 currently used kennels. The new building will also contain another cat/kitten room, grooming/bathing room, office, bathroom, waiting/reception room, isolation area for incoming dogs, cat/dog showroom, storage spaces, laundry room, and kitchen area to prepare animals food and meds.
Although the "shell" of the building is already constructed, it will take more than a year or two and thousands of dollars in donations to complete.
To help ARC with its mission of sheltering and rehoming our community's unloved and homeless animals, please send donations to Animal Resource Center in care of our President:

Sled Dog Slaughter
This is just horrible!
After bookings for their Dogsled Tours slumped following the Winter Olympics, Outdoor Adventures Whistler ordered a decrease in the size of the company's dog pack. When a vet refused to euthanize the healthy animals, an employee took the culling into his own hands, using a gun and a mass grave.
Many dogs needed to be shot twice, and there are reports that some were buried alive.
The British Columbia SPCA is investigating the case. These beautiful animals deserve justice for what happened to them.
Join us in making sure this tragedy never happens again. »

Missouri voters approved the Puppy Mill Cruelty Prevention Act
Other states are acting. What about you in yours?
This past November, Missouri voters approved the Puppy Mill Cruelty Prevention Act, a citizen's initiative to protect puppy mill dogs from cruel and inhumane conditions. Unfortunately, lawmakers have filed legislation to overturn the initiative (Proposition B) and thwart the voters will. If this act by the legislature isn't stopped not only will the cruel and inhumane treatment of puppy mill dogs continue, but the voice of hundreds of thousands of Missouri voters will have been silenced.

We cannot let this happen many thousands of dogs are depending on Prop B. I am writing to ask you to take just a moment to contact your elected officials and speak out against this. Please let your elected officials know that voters in Missouri have spoken and they want to protect dogs in puppy mills. The legislature should not interfere with Proposition B.

Care2 Action Alert - Lacey
This crime, along with similar animal abuses, needs to be taken seriously. Unfortunately though, animal abuse laws are not always strong enough, and it's easy for people like Lacey's owner to get away their crimes. That's why one Care2 member started a petition to demand justice for Lacey. Below is a message from the petition's author: With this petition on behalf of Lacey, we hope to give law enforcement, police and the District Attorney's office an idea of how the public feels about such acts of violence towards animals. We also hope to raise awareness of the link between these crimes and other types of violent crimes. Please consider signing this petition. If you would like to sign the petition or learn more, click here. »
