They have spent far too much time "studying the situation" while animals die in pain and anguish. Such institutions have had countless years to plan, organize, and mobilize rescue teams. Their teams should be all set up and ready to respond at a moment's notice since such tragic events can and do happen worldwide at any time. They should not be waiting on 'infrastructure' in order to get the job done, but should be self-sustaining units. These are not difficult concepts. Thank you Jace for bringing this to people's attention. Unfortunately I hesitate to donate any dollars to an organization that will sit back and let animals suffer, using the dollars to support its President hob-nobbing in Washington in a plush office, instead of funding water, food, and medical supplies for a rescue team.

Sadly, along with the immense human tragedy that has taken place in Haiti, many animals are suffering as well. This is hardly a "fund-raising scam." Compassionate human beings and animal lovers should be informed and make their own decision. As a writer, it is my job to publish information that is accurate, factual and up-to-date. Your comments on my articles have resulted in a variety of comments from other readers. Before suggesting that I am a "party to the exploitation of a tragedy", please perform your own research on the subject before making such inacurate comments. Thank you. John,

Haiti is too poor to have a pet problem and any livestock will very quickly be eaten by all the humans who are sick and starving and need the resources these animal scams will suck away from them. Shame on Jace Shoemaker-Galloway for making herself a party to the exploitation of a tragedy!

I wanted to do all I could to help. I donated to the Red Cross, but I believe the animals need help as well. I currently work at a pet store and would like to help in any way possible!

They feel pain just like us. I wish I could go there and bring back all the stray dogs and find them all loving happy homes. I pray to God that people are trying to help and save

I read a story this morning about a dog "on the other side of a wall" that was trapped and slowly starving to death. Evidently no one would dig him out. It has now been over nine days since the earthquake, so there is probably no hope for him now. But, there must be lots more. Even if they are still digging out humans, the animals deserve help too.
