The Issue
The Director of Spalding County Animal Control, has consistently failed to comply with county ordinances. These regulations clearly state that any found animal must be taken into the shelter. Sadly, this critical mandate has been ignored under her leadership, causing unimaginable suffering to countless animals. Stray animals end up starving, enduring pain, and unfortunately, many meet untimely and horrific deaths on the streets of Griffin, GA.
This neglect isn't just a risk to animals; it poses a significant danger to our community. There have been multiple reported incidents of stray dogs attacking people, creating an unsafe environment for everyone. This is not the kind of community we want to live in. As residents of Griffin, GA, we must demand better for our pets, our families, and ourselves.
Removing her from her position as the Director of Animal Control is the first step towards restoring safety and compassion in our community. We need a leader who respects the ordinances of Spalding County and values the lives of both its animals and its citizens.
Sign this petition to urge local government and relevant authorities to take immediate action. Let's ensure that our animal control director aligns with the ethical and legal standards necessary to protect all beings in our community. Together, we can make Griffin a safer, more compassionate place for everyone.
