Thank New Jersey for Enacting "Patrick's Law"
New Jersey State Legislature has enacted and passed "Patrick's Law", (S 1303),- which calls for tougher measures that would increase civil and criminal penalties for animal abuse and neglect. The law also creates a separate offense if an individual is charged with the needless killing of an animal.
Patrick the dog was found thin, cold and near death the day before St. Patrick's Day, 2011, after his owner put him in a garbage bag and dumped him in a garbage chute of a 22 story apartment building. He was found by a maintainance worker with every bone in his body protruding from starvation. He was a referral hospital with 24 hour emergency care where he began to recover.
Thank New Jersey legislature for passing the law- please encourage Governor Chris Christie to sign the bill into law.
