Re:"Dog hoarder has done it before, neighbors say," Metro, March 12. 
The media have provided extensive coverage of Dr. Janis Walder's hoarding of 
over 100 dogs. The district attorney in St. Tammany Parish has charged her 
with animal cruelty. The public brought food, toys, blankets and other items for 
the dogs at the animal shelter. 
Six years ago, according to the news, Dr. Walder was in a very similar 
situation. Once those animals were taken from her, she probably started again with 
one or two dogs, but the homeless, hungry and scared dogs kept arriving or she 
kept finding them on the street, in parking lots and other places where they 
had been abandoned.
