Hundreds of pups in bicoastal contributions dog walk

About 50 dogs in moorland have been signed up for a bicoastal puppy procession Saturday to raise awareness for pets abandoned when their owners' homes are foreclosed. The other pup crawl will take place in New York City. The parade began in 2009 as a way to help shelters contract with an increase in foreclosure pet’s animals at a time when donations and adoptions were down, said event co-founder Joseph Hassan.

Six rescues in New York, Florida and California were chosen to receive donations from the pup creep. Money is raised through registrations, corporate donations and the sale of lighted leashes, which will be used by some of the owners during the parade. In California, the beneficiary is Ace of Hearts in Los Angeles, which rescues animals from shelters the day they are listed to be euthanized then, finds homes for them. The West Coast Pup Crawl is sponsored by Helping out Pets Everyday of Upland, a city about 40 miles east of Los Angeles. In New York City, 500 canines and their pets owners will trot across the Brooklyn Bridge. Hassan said the New York event reached its capacity for its authorize.

Pigeons supposedly killed by man with crutches in San Francisco's

A man was arrested for Animal cruelty Wednesday after he supposedly murdered pigeons with his crutches in the Polk Gulch neighborhood, police said Thursday. Concerned citizens called cops saying the suspect was attempting to kill pigeons in the area of Polk and California streets around 2:45 p.m. When cops arrived, they not only spotted a suspect fitting the account – they also noticed he had pigeon feathers on his crutches, according to police at Northern Station.

Witnesses told cops “they had the right guy.” They sharp out the dead pigeons to the officers. The alleged pigeon killer told the cops that he had every right to kill the pigeons since they were “stealing his money,” police said. The man was arrested for crime cruelty to pet’s animals, police said. This wasn’t the only time defenseless birds were targeted in San Francisco. Last year, one of the two iconic swans that waded in the Palace of Fine Arts lagoon had its neck broken, and beer cans were found at the crime sight.
