Charity Premiere of Jungle ASPCA Gives Out Awards for Humane Efforts |
ASPCA Gives Out Awards for Humane Efforts The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals in May during the organisation's 2003 National Humane Awards Luncheon honoured "people and animals that have demonstrated outstanding commitment to furthering the human-animal bond." Medals
of honour commemorating Henry Bergh, the founder of The ASPCA, were
given to Wyatt Tyler, an 11-year-old who started up a cat and dog rescue
group, and Ross Hendry, DVM, who provides vaccinations for animals
being cared for by its members. The ASPCA Founders Award was presented to Susan Marino for turning her home in Fort Salonga, NY into Angel's Gate, the first residential hospice for animals in the United States. Members of the Dover, NH fire department received the Chairman's Emergency Relief Award for rescuing more than 100 animals from a fire at the Cocheco Valley Humane Society. Among the animals honored were Foxy, a dog that alerted neighbours her elderly owner had fallen and broken her hip on an icy street, and Sean, a police dog recognised for rescuing a rape victim in Elmhurst, NY.
