How to spot animal abuse (and stop it)

I receive lots of calls every month from people wondering what to do when they see animal cruelty and neglect, especially during summer. We know you'd do anything to help animals, so here's a quick guide for how to respond if you see ...

HERE'S WHAT TO DO:

1.	Note date/time/location of the animal.
2.	Look for any identifying tags (Take caution! It may not be safe to get close.)
3.	Photograph the animal and their surroundings to document the condition.
4.	Call local law enforcement for help.

Ask for the name and badge number of the officer who talks to you on the phone and the one who arrives on the scene.

By law, the responding agency is required to investigate. But if they don't, you can always use the evidence you gathered to report the incident after the fact. You can also contact Animals' Angels at info@animalsangels.org, and we'll do everything we can to help.

Thank you for being willing to speak up for animals who are suffering, from horses and dairy cows to dogs and cats. Knowing this information could save the life of an animal in need!

P.S. One last tip: If you'd like to be a hero to animals year-round, please make a gift to Animals' Angels today.
