<\/strong>URGENT SITUATION AT VILLALOBOS RESCUE FROM TIA!! IMMEDIATE ACTION NEEDED!<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n

<\/strong> So
\nthings are getting ugly with this group of people in Tehachapi. They’ve
\neven gone so far as to put up a site\/blog that is “profiling” dogs off
\nof my site and showing them as dangerous dogs. These people have created
\nmass hysteria and now the sheriffs have banned with them in saying I’m
\nbasically a danger to society. Of course they don’t even care that my 17
\nyear perfect track record here in L.A.County means anything. One of the
\nbusinesses in town actually told us we weren’t allowed in their store. A
\ncouple of the apartment complexes turned us away when my workers tried
\nto rent an apartment because of their affiliation with the TV
\nshow\/program. Yet……every single dog rescue in Tehachapi is being run
\nillegally without permits. Three weeks ago I spotted a homeless man
\nsitting at a gas station with his 2 Pit mixes in the freezing cold snow.
\nHe was there all day and yet no one in this “quaint and cute tourist
\ntown” asked him if he needed help. He was there alllll day into
\nnightfall and I went back and got him and his dogs into a hotel room
\nwhere I’ve been paying for 3 weeks for him to stay there until we can
\nget him home to Kentucky hopefully this weekend. The news found out and
\nthe story was everywhere including CNN. NO ONE in this town wanted to
\nhelp him. Yet I am the monster.<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/strong> <\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/strong>This Friday the Planning
\nDept in Kern County is going to make their ruling as to whether or not
\nthey recommend my program when it goes before the commission on March
\n10th. I’m sitting here dumbfounded because in L.A. County I was spoiled
\nbecause I was their little “sweetheart” and they treated me so well.
\nNever did I think this would happen in Kern County which has the worst
\nreputation in the country. I found a post on another site that said “we
\ndon’t want no outsiders here” I am right in the middle of building my
\nnew kennels and now I’ve halted all construction. The rumor is that the
\narea that I’ve moved to, the locals are going to “run me out of town”.
\nYet I’m the danger to society.<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/strong> <\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/strong><\/strong>It
\nwould mean alot to me if you could call the Supervisor for the
\nTehachapi District. His assistant got word to me last night that these
\npeople are trying to twist his ear and being that about a year or so ago
\nhe got accused of being a pot head, maybe he would be someone who would
\nunderstand how if feels to be accused. His name is Zack Scrivner. The
\noffice numer is 661-868-3661. How doees someone (me) who has never
\ndrank, done drugs or even smoked a cigarette, have had ZERO violations
\nwith animal control and ZERO neighbor complaints, have this happen to
\nthem. <\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/strong> <\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/strong>In closing, here is the magnitude
\nof what will happen if on Friday the inspector rules against me thus
\nmaking the commission rule against me:<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/strong> <\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/strong>1. I will lose the TV show which has quadrupled our adoption rate and kept us financially able to take in more dogs<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/strong>2. I will immediately have to fire all of my workers due to lack of funding<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/strong>3.
\nI will immediately have to close my doors and have to quickly place and
\neuthanize the majority of my dogs. I only say euthanize because we do
\nhave some dogs here that are not adoptable and only we<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/strong>can handle.<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/strong> <\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/strong>We
\nare due to start filming again on March 14th which is my only steady
\nincome. Since I basically live paycheck to paycheck…..well you can
\nfigure out the rest of this story. Things are that bad right now with
\nwhat these people are doing. I’m scared to even walk down the streets in
\nthat town right now because of all the hatred. I feel helpless and I’m a
\nwreck.<\/strong><\/div>\n
