"We had been contemplating a move from our home for a couple of years, but were not ready to sell until just this past summer. Throughout that time, Kris stayed in contact with us and always demonstrated courteousness, sensitivity, and a professionalism that is rarely found today. Kris acted swiftly when we felt ready to put our home on the market. Within days we were having regular showings, almost on a daily basis, and our house SOLD in just two months! All the while, Kris kept in communication with us, as well as the other parties involved. She never missed a beat, and always was friendly and organized. We will never forget the helpful and amazing service we had with Kris Johnston. THANKS KRIS!!!" Maria Perez Oberbruner

Tell Allergan that Animals Should Not Die for BOTOX

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 07:11:59 -0600

Tell Allergan that Animals Should Not Die for BOTOX

Botox^® Cosmetic is the number one cosmetic procedure in the US, and the manufacturer, Allergan, Inc., makes hundreds of millions of dollars on the product every year. Despite the popularity of the product, this beauty enhancement comes at a terrible price. Animals suffer and die in the potency testing of every batch of Botox. The Humane Society of the United States has tried numerous times to start a meaningful dialogue with the company to work with them to quickly advance the development and validation of a non-animal alternative. In response, we have only gotten vague assurances that the company has reduced and refined their current animal use and are working on a non-animal alternative.

We have sought to fill the information void by tracking Allergan's technical updates in the scientific literature and occasional scientific presentation but this is no substitute for the company making it easy for interested parties to understand, in layperson's terms, the status of Allergan's effort to replace the LD₅₀ Test. Otherwise, the company is essentially asking us, and the concerned public, to take their word that they are working on alternatives as a priority.

We do not want to waste any more time with speculating the present and future status of animals in this kind of testing. We have asked Allergan to create an annual report disclosing their recent activities and future plants to eliminate the animal-based LD₅₀ test from the manufacturing process of Botox and Botox Cosmetic. We need your help in urging the company to be open in their efforts, to more effectively move this inhumane testing into the pages of history. Please contact David E.I. Pyott, chief executive officer of Allergan, and let him know that you want an alternative developed and validated as quickly as possible, and that they owe it to the public to be as transparent about their efforts as possible.

HSUS Investigation Uncovers Veal Calf Abuse, Closes Plant

Tue, 03 Nov 2009 07:41:53 -0600

HSUS Investigation Uncovers Veal Calf Abuse, Closes Plant

It’s always deeply disturbing to see the mistreatment of animals, but there’s something even worse when the victims are babies and seem so utterly vulnerable and frightened. Today, The HSUS released results of our latest investigation of modern agribusiness—in which one of our people went undercover for seven weeks at Bushway Packing, Inc. of Grand Isle, Vt. The plant specializes in slaughtering some of the rejects of the dairy industry—namely, the male calves who obviously cannot be used for milk production, nor as breeding stock.

The calves are taken away from their mothers at birth and sent, as mere infants, to the slaughter plant for immediate slaughter—to be used as “bob veal.” Without their mothers to nourish them, they are in a weakened state—hungry, lonely, confused, frightened, and, in some cases, unable to stand or walk.

The HSUS
Our undercover investigation shows shocking abuse of veal calves.

Our investigator documented the kicking, slapping, and electric prodding of downer calves in the pre-slaughter area—violations of the Humane Methods of Slaughter Act. Our person on the inside then recorded inhumane stunning of the animals, and the hacking up and skinning of still-conscious calves.

Today, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Vermont Agency of Agriculture shut down the plant after seeing The HSUS’s footage and announced the initiation of a thorough investigation.

"The deplorable scenes recorded in the video released by the Humane Society of the United States are unequivocally unacceptable,” said U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack in a statement today. “The callous behavior and attitudes displayed in the video clearly appear to be violations of USDA's humane handling regulations.”

Roger Allbee, the head of Vermont’s agriculture department, offered a similar denunciation.

After reviewing the undercover footage obtained by the HSUS investigator in August and September 2009, animal scientists Dr. Temple Grandin and Kurt Vogel pronounced that, “the handling practices and attention to insensibility at this plant are unacceptable and must improve.”

Early last year, The HSUS exposed the routine abuse of downed cows at a California slaughter plant, which was the number two supplier to the National School Lunch Program. That investigation prompted the largest meat recall in U.S. history and led to a new federal regulation that banned the slaughter of downer cattle, but left open a loophole for downer calves. Subsequent investigations in four states revealed other abuses of downers.

Today, we blow the lid off the abuse of these infant calves—some of them, downers, too. We’ll have more to say on this case on Monday, but here’s our full release today and our video.

How do you give thanks to your clients?

Thu, 29 Oct 2009 09:28:22 -0500

Each Thanksgiving, I send a special hand written note of thanks to my cilents of that current year. I think it is important to stop and simply take a moment to let them know I appreciated their loyalty and faith in me. I am proud to keep in contact with all my clients, and letting them know their business is important to me (and future referrals too of course!) is such an easy, but essential, part of my ongoing marketing efforts.

Of course, I also thank each client at the end of the real estate transaction, with another personal note, closing gift, and a contribution in their name to an animal shelter or rescue group of their choice. Even in these hard times, it is crucial more than ever to let clients/customers know that their business is appreciated.

What do you do to give thanks to your clients?

Help! Dogs Need You In Wisconsin!!!!

Wed, 28 Oct 2009 09:19:55 -0500

Yesterday, 27 October 2009, The Wisconsin Assembly passed AB-250, the Commercial Dog Breeders Licensure Bill, by unanimous vote, 96 to 0!!!! What a great day for dogs and the people who love them in Wisconsin.

Rep. Jeff Smith asked that the vote be dedicated to Wilbert Ribbens, who passed away the day before the public hearing on this bill. Mr. Ribbens was a great animal lover whose letter to his daughter about a sick, sad pet store puppy over 10 years ago laid the groundwork for the Wisconsin Puppy Mill Project and, incidentally, today's vote.

Please join us in THANKING Rep. Smith and each and every one of our WI Representatives!

Next hurdle: SB-208 will be debated by the Joint Finance Committee on 28 October. Please see our JOINT FINANCE COMMITTEE ALERT for action you can take to help get SB-208 into the full Senate on 5 November!

****For some reason, the links wouldn't take this morning. I know some folks had said they had issues with this the last few days....please go to www.nowisconsinpuppymill.com for more info!!!*************

10/26 ACTION ALERT - URGENT!

Your help is needed NOW to move SB 208, the Senate version of the Dog Breeder Licensure Bill, through the Joint Finance Committee.

Please go to http://www.nowisconsinpuppymills.com/finance-committee-alert.html

Please email the members of the Joint Finance Committee to ask them to pass SB 208 out of their committee without any further changes or amendments.

We MUST get the Senate bill out of the Joint Finance Committee this week in order to get it to the Senate floor on November 5th, the LAST day of the Senate Session.

Both bills, AB 250 and SB 208, MUST pass in order for this worthy legislation to become LAW.

Benicio del Toro Speaks Up for Monkeys

Wed, 21 Oct 2009 08:17:34 -0500

latina / CC

You probably know him from his roles in movies such as Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Traffic, 21 Grams, Sin City (my personal favorite), and many others. He's also won an Oscar, a BAFTA, a Golden Globe, and a SAG award. Now actor Benicio del Toro is adding one more bullet point to his résumé: animal defender.

The Puerto Rican actor has penned a letter to the governor of Puerto Rico urging him to halt the construction plans for Bioculture's massive monkey-breeding facility. As you might remember, Bioculture—a company that supplies primates to laboratories—plans to capture monkeys from their homes in Mauritius, hold them captive in Puerto Rico, and then sell thousands of their babies for use in painful and deadly experiments around the world.

You can read Benicio's full letter here. To write your own respectful letter to the governor to ask him to stop Bioculture, please click here.
