Onderwerp: DawnWatch: Wall Street Journal front page article on care of homeless dogs in Bangkok

 

 

On a happy note -- the Wednesday, March 24, Wall Street Journal had a heartwarming animal friendly article on the front page:  "In Buddhist Bangkok, Even Stray Dogs Have Their Day." It is by Cris Prystay. I did not send it out on Wednesday as the Wall Street Journal only makes articles available on line to paid subscribers. But the article can now be read on the Houston Chronicle website at:

You may have to register but is easy and free.

The article tells a heartwarming story about the effort led my Buddhist monks to spay-neuter, feed, and give medical attention to Bangkok's homeless dog population. Its placement on the front page of the country's second highest selling newspaper gives us a particularly good opportunity for letters to the editor about America's companion animal overpopulation crisis.

The Wall Street Journal takes letters at: wsj.ltrs at wsj.com 

Always include your full name, address, and daytime phone number when sending a letter to the editor. Shorter letters are more likely to be published.

(I send thanks to Connie Chambers for making sure we saw this -- WSJ articles don't come through the usual web search sources._
