Email, Fax and Phone lists are below, as well as a sample letter.

Form Letter:

Dear .....

My name is .....

I have learned about what is happening with a dog named Lucy who has been ordered killed because of one incident involving another dog.

According to your local laws and California Law, Lucy should be ordered back home with terms, restrictions and conditions, and/or
sent to one of the many dog rescues that have offered to take her for the rest of her life.

There has been a gross miscarriage of justice and it is up to you to help and do something about this.

Time is of the essence.

I have heard that there were misstatements by City Attorney Kahn that Lucy has a history. She doesn't and the record proves it.

The California Hayden Bill states:

"1834.4. (a) It is the policy of the state that no adoptable animal should be euthanized if it can be adopted into a suitable home....
(b) It is the policy of the state that no treatable animal should be euthanized. A treatable animal shall include any animal that is not adoptable but that could become adoptable with reasonable efforts...."

State law mandates her release.

Please grant leniency and spare this innocent life.

Sincerely,

.....
