NV SHELTER CONTROVERSY

SPCA defends its record

From page A1

attitude of the workers and
the demeanor of the animals
at the shelter. The movement
was spearheaded by Gilmore,
who is the owner of two dogs

and three cats.

She was supported at the
Monday’s meeting by MLA
Angus Ree and Sam James,

peared from the = animal
shelter with records falsified
to create the impression that
the dog had never been there.
Gilmore belheves that other
ammals have been destroyed
before the four day holding

period.

‘‘l want to commend you
people for caring so much for
the animals 1 know that
St. Francis of Assisi would
said Ald.

Stella Jo Dean, following the
presentation.
Ald. Frank Marcino also
commended the group but
suggested that they help the
present staff at the SPCA to
Operate a better facility.
Gilmore said that she was not
against this idea, but claimed
that she had already offered
her services and not received
a reply to her second letter to
SPCA regional representative

Jack Homes.

Although the-group would
be willing to help the SPCA,
they would want a say on the
work that they did and how
the money they spent was
raised, Gilmore added.

Council approved a mo-
tion that Gilmore and a com-
mittee chosen by her meet
with Homes, and members of
City council and North Van-

couver District council.
Gilmore also hoped coun-
cil would form a committee

to investigate the situation,
and suggested that such a
committee make a visit to the
shelter ‘‘without an awful lot
of notice.”’

“‘Superficial changes
would be easy to effect at the
shelter,’’ she warned.

Council also heard, by let-
ter, from Homes, who said
many of the letters of com-
plaint about the shelter, in-
cluding some published in the

North Shore News ‘‘contain-

1.e:
that ammals were lying on
cold, wet floors, when in fact
the floors have underground
heating.’”’

The North Shore shelter
has the highest claim rate
(ratio of dogs claimed tothose
impounded) of any on the
Lower Mainland, ‘‘which
reflects upon the hard work
being put in by the staff to
reunite owners with their lost
pets,” Homes wrote.

whose dog, he claims, disap- smile on you,’’
