Spay-neuter law works in Santa Cruz
Interesting news:- Getting the Santa Cruz law passed wasn't easy, Cramer said. The community was divided and emotional, especially after the local SPCA magazine in 1995 ran a photograph of a euthanized dog on the cover to make its point. Opponents argued then, as they do today, that regulating...
