hello everyone!
here is the footer that I am attaching to all email sent from my
location - it is self explanatory - with enough grass roots pressure
maybe we can get the government zombies to recognize that their airline
pet transport Animal Welfare 'bible' does not cover the topic of working
livestock dogs - these are unique animals that have one goal in life -
to live with and protect their herd - so let's try to force the USDA to
recognize that these special animals deserve special attention
since I have been forced to stop transport of LGDs I have had to turn
down a dozen requests to transport LGDs - that is a dozen herds that
don't have the protection from predators that they need and deserve!
please feel free to crosspost this information to any group that you
think will have members who are uncomfortable with the USDA interfering
with our private lives - in other words crosspost to EVERY group that
you belong to - also make sure that your local USDA inspector gets at
least a dozen copies of your and your friends comments about government
intervention into areas where experienced animal handlers are more
knowledgable about animal care than any 'politician' law writer who put
a few paragraphs into a congressional bill

Thanks to restrictive USDA regulations I no longer transport dogs!
Please let your local USDA inspector know how stupid it is to apply
'pet' transport regulations to climate acclimated working dogs!
With enough pressure maybe we can get the government morons to
recognize the difference between lap pets and working livestock dogs
and that working dogs transport best in the trailer with the livestock
we expect them to protect with their lives!
