VHS RECEIVES GRANT FROM THE GREY MUZZLE ORGANIZATION TO UNDERWRITE SENIOR DOG ADOPTION PROGRAM

0

Old dogs have something to wag about this summer, as The Grey Muzzle Organization announces the recipients of its annual grants, and dogs at the Vanderburgh Humane Society are among the winners. The VHS in Evansville is one of 66 animal welfare groups in 30 states who were chosen from 309 applicants to receive a grant to help local senior dogs.

Funds from this grant will subsidize the VHS adoption fees for 10 large senior dogs and 10 small senior dogs. The size cutoff for “large” dogs is 25 lbs. and larger. “Small” dogs are under 25 lbs. A senior dog is considered to be age 8 or older. Senior citizens are considered to be age 70 or older. These funds will allow the shelter to market senior dogs with a waived adoption fee, giving senior citizens seeking companions the financial breathing room to take on dogs who are more likely to need ongoing veterinary care. The VHS offers this program all the time, but would normally just absorb the costs in the regular budget. Thanks to Grey Muzzle, the shelter now has specific funding for these adoptions, alleviating their financial burden!

“This grant will help us give senior dogs like 12-year-old Savannah the care she needs so she’ll be ready to go to her forever home,” said Amanda Coburn, Development Coordinator at the VHS. “No one is more grateful or loving than an old dog, and we’re looking forward to helping more senior dogs get the second chance they all deserve.”

Please note that while the Grey Muzzle Organization only provides funding for senior dog adoptions, the VHS Pets for Seniors program also includes cats over the age of 8.

Over the past decade, the national nonprofit Grey Muzzle Organization has provided nearly $1.5 million in grants to support its vision of “a world where no old dog dies alone and afraid.”

“Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we’re delighted to help deserving organizations like the Vanderburgh Humane Society make a difference in the lives of dogs and people in their communities,” Grey Muzzle’s Executive Director Lisa Lunghofer said. “Many senior dogs in the Evansville area are enjoying their golden years in loving homes thanks to the wonderful work of the VHS.”

The national nonprofit The Grey Muzzle Organization improves the lives of at-risk senior dogs by providing funding and resources to animal shelters, rescue organizations, sanctuaries, and other nonprofit groups nationwide. For details, please visit www.greymuzzle.org.

IS IT TRUE JULY 6, 2018

14

We hope that today’s “IS IT TRUE” will provoke honest and open dialogue concerning issues that we, as responsible citizens of this community, need to address in a rational and responsible way?

IS IT TRUE we just learned from reliable sources that the longtime CEO of the Union County Hospital was abruptly dismissed this week?  …it’s been alleged that the reason for her abrupt dismissal was that she strongly objected to the officials of Henderson County Methodist Hospital to continue taking large sums money from Union County Hospital funds to offset their massive losses?  …this may be developing the story for an aggressive reporter employed by a local media outlet?

IS IT TRUE we were just informed that a highly respected and 30 plus year Orthopedic surgeon employed by Henderson County Methodist Hospital was abruptly dismissed by officials of Henderson County Methodist Hospital earlier this week?  … it’s being alleged that he was replaced by an Orthopedic doctor from Deaconess Hospital-Evansville?

IS IT TRUE it been alleged that a member of Mayor Winnecke staff recently filed a “Freedom Of Information Request” in order to find out which City Council person passed sent an e-mail via their Government account to the City-County Observer concerning the noise ordinance? …if this information is correct all we can say is “are you kidding us”?  …it looks like “Big Brother” rules at the Civic Center?

IS IT TRUE that USI basketball has been hit with sanctions for NCAA recruiting violations?…the offense was not something that USI did but a “supporter” did buy a recruit a computer for less than $2,000?…we find the sanctions and public humiliation of USI for this small action to be overreach on the part of the NCAA?…the level of minutia that the NCAA seems to go to is suffocating college sports?…it is not their business if a friend of USI gave a gift of a computer to a recruit?…if that same supporter gave the kid a Ferrari or a lap dance from Stormy Daniels that would be a different story?

IS IT TRUE during last year budget hearings Scott Schoenike clearly stated before the City Council that “VenueWorks aims to break even” at the Ford Center and went on to say that their primary interest is “to bring economic development to downtown Evansville?” … first off, no for-profit company of any value “aims to break even” or exists to further the civic interest of a city?

IS IT TRUE during the upcoming budget hearings we hope City Council members will ask City Controller Rudd Lloyd, Jr., CPA about how much in advance payments did he receive from the Riverboat Fund and from the Evansville Water and Sewer Utilities Board so far this year?   …it looks like the practice of borrowing money from Peter to pay Paul is alive and well at the Civic Center?

IS IT TRUE that Evansville is in the news across the country today along with the rest of the Tri-State as the hottest heat index in the United States?…somehow the 4th of July week always seems to bring out the heat here even when June is moderate?… Thermal, CA with a temperature of 120 degrees has a lower heat index than Evansville for one reason and only one reason and that is excessive humidity in the Ohio River Valley?…the high humidity is what makes summer feel hotter and winter feel even colder in the Tri-State?…we offer our condolences to those who are running the air conditioning 24/7 at the highest a rates for electricity in the State of Indiana?

IS IT TRUE that it is no secret that Evansville is struggling with a heroin epidemic along with much of the country?…this heroin epidemic came about first because doctors were handing out opioids like jellybeans and second because they stopped?…this irresponsible practice has created an estimated 10 million opioid addicts?…the parts of the country where opioids were handed out like Halloween candy are seeing more heroin deaths than other places but no place is immune to this scourge?…in 2017 for the first time in history more people died from heroin overdoses than from gun-related homicides?…the only state that did not see a significant increase in heroin-related deaths was Colorado and that has been attributed to legal recreational marijuana?…the lawmakers in Indiana need to let that sink in?

IS IT TRUE that there is a movement among millennials to abandon the Democrat Party when it comes to national elections?…this movement is called #WalkAway and there are a multitude of articles and videos out there that articulate the frustration of young people with national Democrats?…it is curious that there is really no leader of the Democrat Party with any agenda whatsoever?…the only thing the pretenders like Maxine Waters, Nancy Pelosi, and other assorted malcontents can agree on is that they despise the ground that President Donald Trump walks on?…they even are advocating for an economic crash to get rid of the President?…if the combination of ignorance, arrogance, and downright delusion of national Democrats does not find a positive message, the once inevitable blue wave will probably turn into a decade out of power and possibly a full breakup of the Democrat Party?

Todays “Readers Poll” question Is: Do you feel that Evansville is headed in the right direction?

Long Time And Beloved EPD Sergeant To Retire Today

0

Sergeant Lonnie Rahm is retiring Friday, 7-6-2018, after serving the citizens of Evansville for 42 years and 11 months. He came on the department on Aug 6, 1975. Sergeant Rahm worked undercover narcotics for nine years where he made hundreds of hand to hand drug buys. He was promoted to Sergeant on August 12, 1992 (almost 26 years). Lonnie will be receiving his 10th Merit Award next Monday at the department’s hiring and awards ceremony and he is well beloved by the officers who work for him on second shift. Sergeant Rahm has had a front row seat to many changes in this profession over the past 43 years and Evansville has been lucky to have him.

Some fun facts from when Sergeant Rahm was hired:

#1 song in the country was Jive Talkin by the Bee Gees.

#1 movie was Jaws. This was two years before anyone had heard of a little movie called Star Wars.

#1 TV Show in 1975 was Sanford & Son.

Sergeant Rahm served under sev en different Police Chiefs, dating back to Dave Jackson, six different Mayors, dating back to Russell G. Lloyd Sr. (Lonnie once served as a Camp Counselor at Camp Carson where future Mayor Lloyd Winnecke was one of his campers.), and eight different US Presidents, dating back to President Gerald Ford.
