MAKE IT A BE KIND TO ANIMALS WORLD

Michigan Anti-Cruelty Society

The Michigan Anti-Cruelty Society never charges for dropping off animals. Occasionally animals have been left on our doorstep at all times of the day and night, prompting us to advertise our “no charge policy” on the side of the building.

This puppy was left outside the shelter overnight. We found him when we opened at 8 am. He was severely dehydrated and frozen from being left overnight in near zero temperatures.

Cruelty Investigations

The Michigan Anti-Cruelty Society investigates several hundreds of cases of animal cruelty each year. The

types of investigations we conduct may include, but are not limited to:

· Abandonment

· Inadequate nutrition (no food, malnutrition)

· Inadequate medical care (untreated injuries or illness)

· Water not provided at all times

· Short or improper tie-outs

· Dogs running at large

· Abuse

· Inadequate or no shelter

Please contact the shelter during normal business hours at 313-891-7188 to report animal cruelty. All complainant contact information is kept confidential to protect your privacy.

Before I die, I would like everyone to know how I feel. I am very old now, and I have lived and will die chained in the backyard.

I suffered the cold of the winter and the heat of the summer. I have never known the comforts of family life. I have never been invited inside to enjoy an evening with my family. I have never been for a walk.

I see my family for five minutes each day when they bring me food and water, never at the same time. I have so much love in my heart to give them, and now that I am near the end of my days, they will never know how much I loved them.

I forgive them for the way they treated me, but my heart is heavy with sadness for all the dogs who live and die on a chain.
