SEPT/OCT NEWS!
Joby is the 30th Dog to be Released by Chainfree Bristol!
This month Liza and Ada, Chainfree Bristol Volunteers, along with the pet owner, secured an existing fenced enclosure to make sure Joby could not escape… allowing him to be released from the chain. Joby is a four year old mixed breed pup who is now enjoying his unchained running space!
Charlie, you make 31!
Chainfree Bristol Re-homes Charlie… Chain Free!
Charlie, a black Lab mix, had been chained for 5 of his 6 years! The elderly owner could no longer care for Charlie… so Chainfree Bristol found Charlie an new chain free home. The new owner keeps Charlie indoors, allows him to sleep on her bed, ride in her car and reports that Charlie is a great companion! RECENT LEGISLATION (sweeping America…)
This month, two more York County, PA municipalities have passed an SPCA-endorsed ordinance that makes it illegal to tether dogs that spend their entire lives outdoors. Now in West Borough and Heidelberg Township, owners of “24/7 outside dogs” will either have to build fenced enclosures or take the dogs inside regularly. The ordinance prohibits the owners of domestic animals from tying them up outside and leaving them unattended.

Chained dogs need fences, need attention, and of course, need a law to prevent them from ever going back on the chain. We have seen cases of dogs giving birth on the chain, dogs severely disabled, dogs starving, dogs with chains embedded in their necks, dogs with ground down teeth, dogs with infections from parasites, dogs with feces all over them, dogs who cowered as they became more and more broken, dogs with aggressive attitudes, dogs who only want to be loved. You can help! Join Chainfree Bristol today and make a change in your community! Go to chainfreebristol.org or contact your City Council Members!!!
