some progress has been made with the AC Shelter. animals are being photographed, petfinder is being used, and rescue groups are contacted - none of which ever was or is presently being initiated/carried out by the AC Shelter! volunteers [the people who have been behind the movement for improvements at this shelter] are checking in with the shelter animals and pushing for all of these changes. at least we are getting somewhere, but it's still not enough-

here is a letter to a reporter who met with us months and months ago. i first met the reporter, "w", last year when he was at my address covering another story for my committee [of the humane society] .

note the way this county [where i reside] operates, sadly.

Hello W,

I am just following up again regarding the article about the X County Animal Control. The last time we spoke, you told me that you were still waiting on comment from the commissioners of from Animal Control. Were you able to reach them for comment?

I remember you saying that you would be able run the article even if we were not given a response. I'd like to move forward with writing the article even if we don't get comment from anyone-we can state the truth-that they did not respond. My guess is that if nobody has responded by this time, they will not respond ever.

I would be lying if I said the story is the exact same since our first discussion. We've made some progress, and I'd like to share all of that with you for an updated story.

Please update us on the progress of the article. We are very anxious for the public to know about this extremely important issue-the animals need everyone's support!

Thanks,

** W's response **

Hi ,

I haven't forgotten about this story. We're still working on the multi-part Progress section. I should be mostly finished with that after this week. Because of it, I haven't had time to work on the shelter story. I still need to talk with CH AC Officer and the commissioner. I do see that there's updates to the story, including a website and discussion of a community advisory board. The timing with Progress was incredibly bad, but I promise to publish something on this matter.
