Vicky McNeill needs to pull her head out of her bum!!!!
Guess what..MY blog and I can say what I like. Let me start by saying that the state of Mississippi is beautiful, complex, obliging, historical, intriguing…..but in regards to animals it is completely ignorant and needs to CHANGE!!! My workshop is in the heart of Jackson…well, maybe not the heart, but certainly in one of the main veins. I am so sick and tired of seeing animals running around the streets with rope and chains hanging from their necks in an obvious attempt on their part to escape their demise, whatever that may be. And what’s worse is that no one does anything. But how can they? Dogs with mange, limps from being hit by cars, emaciation….it’s like living in a third world country and this is America. What the hey??? I’m so sick of it. And now I hear that Alonzo Esco, an animal control officer from Canton, Mississippi has killed over 100 dogs by gunshot and dumped the bodies in a creek. Canton Police Chief Vicky McNeill just let’s the whole thing go…guess what? ....she’s used to this kind of treatment toward animals and like many “people” here in Mississippi in government positions, they don’t give a rat’s butt…just give em their paycheck. I hate it. I’m sick of picking up other people’s discarded “garbage”. This page is dedicated to all the life forces that God himself holds valuable!!!! No being is too small to respect. A percentage of my income goes to making sure that animals can get to where they need to be…in the right hands of respect. My focus this year is on humane education. The people of Mississippi who cannot conduct themselves in such a way to respect the life force of animals needs to be educated. For some it is too late, but educating the next generation to the full potential of animals rights and needs is absolutely necessary. Again, this page is dedicated to all the beautiful creatures who I have been blessed to know under unfortunate circumstances. No, this doesn’t have anything to do with bottle trees, but I’m hoping that the same people who are drawn to the magic of the trees and its ability to bring people together, can see that there is a need that requires action. We have some innocent babies that need our help. The first step is taking action. You may not be able to foster, or adopt….but you can support. It’s not enough for you to just take care of your own. You need to reach out, beyond your own comfort level. If you’re at all interested, please email me and I can get you to where you need to be. OK, I’m done.
bless you stephanie, and yes, there are too many out there who don’t see, don’t acknowledge and don’t do. but fortunately, there are people out there who DO care and participate in change. and you have a strong voice to carry that message forward.
by the way, the canton police chief is first cousin to the animal control officer in question. she is not going to do anything until forced
Thank you for speaking out for those who cannot.

Since the very first day I met you, you were passionate about caring for animals and I am thankful to know you still are. Furthermore, taking a stand and saying what needs to be said at the risk of seeming unruly. You are a true friend of those who cannot fend for themselves and I hope you kick some ass over there in Mississippi. For several years I worked with the animal shelter publicizing the need to spay and neuter cats/dogs, and educate the public about animal care, the adoption process, etc. My son just finished his culminating exhibition about the significance of such an organization, the great need there is for people to step up and get involved and help. Thank you again, for taking a stand and taking the time on your blog to create awareness.
