Animal Control Budget Cuts Will Harm Dogs. Can Chicago Get Any Worse?

Lopez said the City Council budget committee received a letter three weeks ago from the acting director of Animal Care and Control, stating that public animal intake was being cut from seven hours per day to four. This is despite an annual increase of 1,800 strays and surrenders at department headquarters.

Chicago is a corrupt, mismanaged, garbage city. There is no excuse. None at all. Everyone knows it. I could go on and on about what is wrong, but I’m sure you probably already know a lot of it. It isn't for a lack of money.

 

And the animals suffer. I was born in Illinois, so I know a bit about the town’s history. 

 

My suggestion if you have a dog: Move somewhere else.
