Notedauthorandcol- umnist Harvey Mackay has said, "None of us got to where we are alone. Whether the assistance we received was obvious or subtle, ac- knowledg- ing some- one's help is a big part of understand- ing the importance of say- ing, 'thank you.'" Most of us like to hear someone thank us for the things that we do. Being appreci- ated is one of the things in life that truly motivates us. By giving a simple "thank you" to someone, especially if it is not expected, shows that appreciation and con- veys gratitude. Even more than that, it is a sign of re- spect to the person who has helped in some man- ner. It is an indication that they are not taken for granted, and most of all it is an acknowledgement that they truly matter. This past week a home- less dog named Prancer was adopted from the Te- hama County Animal Care Center. What makes this adoption worthy of attention is that this par- ticular canine had been at the Center since the end of last November. Even though he was not the only animal to have a lengthy stay, in anyone's book eight months con- fined in a shelter without going "kennel crazy" is something to note. There is no doubt that Prancer, if he could, would thank ev- eryone who assisted him through his long journey to find a loving home. And though he and the hun- dreds of other animals within our county who have been helped can- not vocalize a thank you, I certainly can, for them. Numerous individu- als and organizations ded- icate themselves to help- ing animals in dire need. For these deprived critters, these people are beacons of light and safety in an otherwise dark, often hos- tile world. Therefore, I ask that you take a moment to acknowledge and, along with me, thank the groups and individuals for the ex- tremely worthwhile work they have done and con- tinue to do. We must begin with the Animal Control Officers and Police Officers, who are the first line of protec- tion, not only to our cit- izens, but also to the an- imals whose health and welfare they work stead- fastly to safeguard. Their required duties are wide- ranging, frequently haz- ardous and often, espe- cially lately, underappreci- ated. Thank you. Next are the two pub- lic shelters located within Tehama County, the Te- hama County Animal Care Center (TCACC), located at 1830 Walnut St. in Red Bluff and the Corning Ani- mal Shelter, located at 312 Rawson Road, Corning. In both of these shelters the staff works diligently to improve and save the lives of as many animals that come into their doors as they possibly can. With minimal budgets, limited staffing, and inadequate space, the job of these shel- ters is comparable to try- ing to empty an ocean with a teaspoon. We also need to pay homage to the volunteers of both shelters who not only exercise the animals, but who also as- sist in grooming, training, and promoting the ani- mals for adoption. Because of the efforts of all those involved at these shelters, animals like Prancer have a fighting chance for a lon- ger, better life. Thank you! Let us not forget, in ad- dition to the regular vol- unteers of both shelters, the two non-profit entities, PETS — Providing Essen- tials for Tehama Shelter — and Second Chance Pet Rescue which were origi- nally created with the pur- pose to support and pro- vide whatever assistance was necessary to TCACC and the Corning shelter, respectively. Since incep- tion, each organization has expanded its role to in- clude being vital partici- pants in the community. They each provide guid- ance, education, and sup- plemental support to res- idents regarding the ani- mals with which they live. Thank you. We also cannot ignore the wonderful efforts of two local rescue organiza- tions. Deserving Pets Res- cue, Red Bluff, provides immediate medical atten- tion and treatment for in- jured and sick pets in Te- hama County that cannot thrive in shelter situations. They definitely have played a significant role in saving the lives of many animals who arrived at TCACC in desperate want. The other is Dynamic Duo Dog Res- cue &Transport, Inc., Red Bluff, who not only trans- ports animals from TCACC to Bay Area rescue orga- nizations, to increase the animals' chance for adop- tion, but also fosters multi- ple animals, and provides spay/neuter assistance to those who cannot afford it. Thank you. Let us not forget all the individuals, veterinari- ans, organizations, and businesses who have fos- tered, adopted, rescued, networked, and donated time, supplies, and money to benefit the homeless, ne- glected and abused ani- mals of Tehama County. Thank you. Finally, I ask that who- ever is reading this to ask friends and family to as- sist Prancer and the other animals in thanking those that have helped in mak- ing a positive difference in their lives.
