Woman Arrested for Saving a Starving Dog - Drop Charges Now!

Most people would agree that Rhonda Rose did the right thing when she rescued an emaciated dog on the verge of starvation. According to police, she committed two crimes.

Please sign this petition to have charges against Rhonda Rose dropped now!

Rhonda Rose knows a thing or two about animals that need rescuing - she works at the Scioto Area Humane Society in Ohio. When she came across an emaciated dog, she knew it would die if it didn't get help fast. Rose fed the dog and took it to the vet, who confirmed the dog was starving.

Unfortunately, even though Ohio law allows any person to enter and remove an animal if they suspect that the animal is being neglected, Rose was charged with criminal trespass and petty theft.

This is absolutely ridiculous. Rhonda Rose was within her rights and she saved this dog's life. Please sign this petition demanding that the Scioto County Sheriff's Office drop charges against Rhonda Rose now.
