Benefitting from the Warwick Valley Humane Societys professionalism
I would like to take this opportunity to highlight the good work of the Warwick Valley Humane Society.
On Aug. 9, the Village of Harriman was made aware of an animal abandonment and neglect situation. After contacting the town of Monroe Animal Shelter with negative results, the Village of Harriman Police Department contacted the Warwick Humane Society.
Suzyn Barron and Rebecca Hanlon of the Warwick Society responded and handled the situation with professionalism and deep regard for the one dog and 11 cats which were left in deplorable conditions.
Without the Warwick Valley Humane Society s assistance, the fate of these 12 animals was probably not very good.
I would like to thank Suzyn and Rebecca for their invaluable work and assistance to the Village of Harriman.
As the Warwick Humane Society operates almost completely on donations, I encourage anyone who is able to make a donation to them so that they are able to continue their work.
Donations may be sent to the Warwick Valley Humane Society, PO Box 61, Warwick, NY 10990 or at www.wvhumane.org.
