[Cagdu] Billy update

[Ken Volonte]

Hi Leener.  There is, of course the problem of Billy's being able to work as a guide again.  To that end, Edison and I will be around to work with John.  We've got some puppy raisers here also that will work with John and Billy.  

    Under the law, the Pit's owners should also pay a $2000.00 fine for interfering with a service dog in performance of his working.  Juliet, what's that law exactly?  Thanks.  Ken

  Ken, 
  Joe and I just want you to know we are behind John in giving him support. We feel that the animal control stepped in. We felt very sad for Billy and John. I feel that everything is going to turn out very well. The owners should pay for the vet Bills. I am glad to hear that you are going to court with him. We are thinking about Billy all the time. No dog should go thru this at all. I don't want to be negative but, we are glad the the pit bull is going to be put down. 
  Eilleen and Joe

The Pit Bull has been turned over to animal control and will be put down. 
The dog's owners will only pay for part of the bill, so this story isn't 
over yet.  I gotta go.
