Thanks to Howard for sending: “Sad to see the National Park Service unilaterally shutting down a major Capitol Hill park space with no notice to the community. Lincoln Park is an important venue for families, dog owners, park lovers.”

From the Humane Rescue Alliance:
“Zenobia Fisher and Alphonso Allen of Northeast Washington, D.C., were arrested on Tuesday, Oct. 11 and charged with second degree theft and animal cruelty following a joint investigation by the Humane Rescue Alliance and the Metropolitan Police Department.
On Aug. 18, Fisher began fostering Godiva and her seven 2-week-old puppies, giving HRA a false name and address. Once Fisher left HRA with Godiva and her pups, HRA’s foster team was unable to make contact with her despite numerous attempts. An investigation by HRA’s humane law enforcement officers and MPD determined Fisher’s real identity and discovered she, along with Allen, had sold at least four of the puppies to separate and unaffiliated individuals for money. Two of Godiva’s puppies remain missing. HRA is offering a reward of up to $7,500 for information confirming that they are safe. All tips can be anonymously reported to HRA at 202-723-5730. (more…)
