To all of the hundred thousand plus people who signed Lily's petition - you will be so pleased to know that your signatures did make a difference. In Jan 2014 Kim Vickers and the TCLOSE legal dept. tried to mandate the animal encounter training through its rule making authority. It was confirmed that legislation is necessary; HOWEVER TCLOSE as of January 2014 put the training program that we have been pushing for on its approved course list - officers will now receive continuing education credit for the training. This is a huge step forward. Kim Vickers kept his promises to us and helped us in every way he and his Board could. SO now we are on the legislative trail for 2015 (TX only has legislation session every other year) and we will have some powerful support. In the meantime we continue to convince TX law enforcement agencies to voluntarily mandate the training. Austin TX is the recent addition. I urge you all to stay in touch with the crisis of our family pet members being killed by law enforcement. And I urge you all to look at puppycide.com site - this is a documentary in the works that should be completed in the Fall 2014 - eyes are being opened and We the People are being heard. Please continue to make a difference by being active. God bless all of you for caring and for continuing to care. Cindy and Mark Boling for Remembering Lily A Reason for Change
