NEWSLETTER: This was the first full year for the Fort Wayne Animal
Control newsletter which originated mid-1993 with 2 issues. This
year, we published three editions i.e. Spring, Summer, Fall/Winter
with a mailing of 44,084. The response has been noteworthy by the
increase in animal care supplies donated from citizens on a year
around basis. Positive responses have also come from pet owners
requesting problem behavior education tips. Two owners actually
requested help to train their outside dogs to live as inside
companion pets.
FRIENDS OF THE SHELTER (FOS): We started January with 7 Friends of
the Shelter. Training was held in March that added 4 additional
FOS. As new Friends came to help and others completed their
commitments, we maintained an average of 4 Education Assistants, 1
Cat Trapping Assistant, 2 Animal Care . Assistants and 1
Correspondent for thank-you cards and bereavements.
Other information targeted for adults included the Christmas Open
House, speaking at Fai th Uni ted Baptist Church mother/daughter
banquet and, speaking at Animal Care Expo on breeder regulations.
In addition, we provided materials for neighborhood association
newsletters. Belinda Lewis presented a workshop on Pet
Overpopulation Concerns at the American Humane Association
Conference this year and provided safety programs, along with
Trainer Mike Rowland, for local Meter Readers and Utility Workers.
Late in the year we received positive affirmation on\a proposal we
made to NewsChannel l5 for a nighttime pet care education segment.
The show, referred to as Pet Points, began airing November 7. It is
a 3 minute spot to inform the public of animal care regulations,
tips for improving problem pet behaviors, licensing, neutering and,
how to enjoy responsible pet ownership.
Fund raising activities for 1994 included the K-9 Klassic
($1,000.00 for SNAP), Picture Your Pet ($500.00 for education) and
Walk-for-Animals ($3,094.00 for education).
