HELP! HALIFAX WANTS TO KILL MY DOG!
In July 2008, Brindi was seized and put on death row. This was after she had two scuffles with other dogs and got loose accidentally without even touching a dog. She never bit a person. Surely it was a mistake! But when I tried to get her back, the city refused to listen to me, or my neighbors, trainer, vet, groomer, kennel owner, and dozens of neighbors and friends. It's been a long, traumatic, destructive battle and Brindi is still not safe - in fact a judge just washed her hands of the matter and instead of ruling about it, gave her back to the city that wants to kill her! Nearly four years in the pound and it's not over!
BRINDI MEDICAL & LEGAL DEFENSE FUND
Court fees, official transcripts, legal advice, medical costs, and all sorts of other things really add up! If you would like to help out financially with the effort to free Brindi, please go here:
Any amount is much appreciated! Thank you!

Brindi's "mom"
- Francesca Rogier
- East Chezzetcook, Nova Scotia, Canada
- Vegetarian, non-smoker, architect/academic, sought a change of lifestyle on the eastern shore of Nova Scotia. My plan was to renovate a heritage house, get it off the grid, and live quietly in peace and harmony with my dog and two cats. Halifax had other plans. Will we recover? PS I'm not really a mom to Brindi - I adopted her when she was a full-grown girl. When they seized her, it felt like they took my partner and best friend.

Dearest Francesca
I was out all day yesterday and picked up your tel. message when I returned home. I had asked Beatty if I rec'd any calls and because he wanted to surprise me, he said 'no'.
What a glorious surprise!! Thanks to God, Brindi's Mom and all Brindi's Angels.
We love you!!!
Your Montreal Friends,
Carol, Beatty and

I hope this means Brindi will be coming home.
What is the latest news?
Good question, Fox Mange...
You are right, it will not be over till Brindi is home. And even then, if what I have seen elsewhere is any guide, it will not be over in the eyes of some.
Nevertheless, Francesca has raised the bar for the bond between humans and dogs. Equally important, she has raised the bar for human decency, kindness and tenaciousness. What a lesson we all have learned from her. What a hero she is. And she could not have done it without the help of HRM and SPCA-NS.
What's sad, though, is that Brindi has needlessly lost two years of her life, and so many other dogs needlessly died at the hands of HRM in the meantime, and before.
I hope the good people of Nova Scotia take note of what just happened, not for the sake of their dogs, but for the sake of all those things that are important to them.
ETM
