Thanks to Linda Bober for the following sample letter:
To whom it concerns:
I received an email which is quoted below. Is this horror really unfolding in
Kentucky and no one is doing anything to stop it?? This is deplorable,
unacceptable and completely irresponsible.
These animals have no voice, they cannot ask for help or call 911. They depend
on humans to aid them...humans that brought them into this world. They did not
ask to be born, they did not ask to get pregnant with litter after litter of
puppies, they did not ask to live in this filth.
For a brief moment, read the quote, let the scenario sink in, only replace the
dog with a human. No way in hell would women in America be forced to give
birth against their will in maggot covered feces so why should these animals?
Something needs to be done and it needs to be done immediately! There are a
plethora of rescue groups that would help at the drop of a hat...all they need
is some legal action. Be the voice for those with none, stop this nonsense and
punish the horrid people responsible for it.
Thank you in advance for your valuable time,
Very Sincerely,
Linda Bober

Thanks to Angell Larson for the following sample letter:
Dear Commissioner,
We want to know why the puppymill in London, KY run by Nora Chestnut has not
been closed and the animals rescued.
We want to know why Laurel County Attorney Keith Early there refused to take
action even after TV news crews from Channel 36, an ABC affiliate, filmed the
dead and dying animals in with rotting carcasses and a dog covered in flies,
maggots and feces giving birth in this filth.
We want to know why rescue personnel are being required to furnish County
Attorney Early with the statutes and Kentucky laws concerning animal cruelty
before he will act when he should already be familiar with these laws and
should have acted on them already.
We want action and we want it now. These poor animals must not suffer any
longer.
What does it take to put an end to animal cruelty in Kentucky and the
indifference of officials to this suffering?
