A young dog is recovering in an emergency veterinary clinic after being 
rescued by Savannah-Chatham police animal control officers. The vets at the clinic 
on Eisenhower Drive tell us a concerned citizen noticed the dog with the skin 
of his neck grown over his collar yesterday evening and called police. There 
was also a foul odor coming from the fenced-in yard where the dog was being 
kept.
The vets at Savannah Veterinary Emergency Clinic had to cut through the skin 
to get the plastic collar off, which they say the dog may have been wearing 
since he was born.

“I personally cannot get overly worked up about the deprivation of human 
rights in a world where non-humans have no rights at all. Until animals and nature 
have rights, none of us have any rights at all because without animals, 
ecosystems and nature's diversity, rights are meaningless. Humans are a group that 
was never very successful to begin with. Overly territorial, obsessed with 
trivialities, violent, petty, and completely lacking in empathy for other 
species. The world would be a much nicer place without us." Captain Paul Watson
