Magnificent Forest Park is the perfect
setting for this year’s fun-filled, familyfriendly day with activities galore for
young and old alike. Highlighting the
action-packed day are the exciting
Purina Incredible Dog Team, exotic
animals from Busch Gardens and Sea
World, a Build-A-Bear Workshop
Foundation and Heartgard/Frontline
Family Fun Area, a giant inflatable
playground, dog races and contests and
finger-licking country fair food for all
to enjoy! KSDK’s Cindy Preszler, Ed
Goodman and MaryAnn Carson from
KEZK and Jen Meyers from Y98 will
be on hand to meet and greet all the
wonderful dogs and their owners. Mark
this must-attend event on your calendar
— Saturday, May 17. The event opens at
10 a.m.; the walk begins at 11 a.m.
At the Humane Society’s
Longmeadow Rescue Ranch, adoptions
are increasing rapidly for the numerous
horses in our care thanks to the addition
to our staff of a talented horse trainer,
Scott Jaycox. Scott’s expertise enables
severely abused and neglected horses
to heal as well as be trained for riding,
which increases a horse’s adoption

prospects exponentially. Please read
more in this issue and plan to visit
Longmeadow during our weekly Open
House 11 a.m.– 3 p.m. every Saturday.
While you’re there, visit the new ranch
gift shop which is chock full of appealing merchandise with horse and farm
animal motifs.
Finally, the Humane Society of
Missouri recently lost a very good friend
and supporter with the untimely death
of Rita Brumm. In addition to being
an outstanding community volunteer,
Rita served as Director of Community
Relations at the Humane Society during
the 1990s. She was instrumental in
assisting us with our building campaign
for the current headquarters facility on
Macklind Avenue in St. Louis City. At her
death, she was serving on the Humane
Society’s Friends Council. We extend
our deepest sympathy to Rita’s family
and are grateful for her dedication to
our cause.

Humane Society of Missouri Tails is a quarterly magazine published by the Humane Society of Missouri.
The Humane Society of Missouri is dedicated to second chances. We provide a safe and caring haven to
all animals in need — large and small — that have been abused, neglected or abandoned. Our mission is
to end the cycle of abuse and pet over-population through our rescue and investigation efforts, spay/neuter
programs and educational classes. We are committed to creating lasting relationships between people
and animals through our adoption programs. We further support that bond by making available world-class
veterinary care and outstanding pet obedience and behavior programs.
The Scoop
More than 300 attendees “glittered and glamoured” atop
St. Louis at the Chase Park Plaza to give homeless animals the
second chance they deserve. The night began with a surprise
Barkademy Lifetime Achievement Award for Most Significant
Service to Homeless Pets by a TV Anchor presented to the
evening’s emcee, KSDK’s Jennifer Blome. Blome, accompanied by her Humane Society of Missouri alum dog Joey, presented the three additional Barkademy Awards.
The award for Best Pet Video went to Angela Marino and
Dan Will’s English Bulldog Lucy for her performance in
“Happy Birfday.” The Best Second Chance Adoption Story was
awarded to Laurie Livingston’s dog Ellie, an eight-year-old
Chow Lab mix and another Humane Society of Missouri alum.
Ellie has achieved her Canine Good Citizen Certificate and
is a beloved teacher in the Humane Society’s Education
Department. The third award, Most Heroic Pet, went to Brent
and Stephanie Clark’s Great Dane, Macy Lynn, who donates
blood to the St. Louis Animal Blood Bank.

Rescue Tales
Battle Scars
Nationwide, thousands of specially bred dogs suffer for the
sadistic pleasure of spectators who watch them fight until
one dog cannot get up.
Because dogfighting is illegal in all 50 states, fighting
rings hide underground, depending on a murky network of
gamblers to bring in the cash. Suspicious neighbors and
other concerned citizens play a major role in uncovering
the brutal blood sport.
Such was the case when the
sheriff in Stoddard County, Missouri
was notified last October of suspicious activity. As a result of the tip, a
dogfighting operation was broken up,
participants arrested and 25 pit bulls
rescued. A beagle on the premises
was also taken to safety. A few weeks
later, a blind pit bull with obvious
fighting scars was surrendered by
one of the defendants in the case.
While law enforcement arrested participants, the
Rescues and Investigations unit gathered the dogs and transported them to safety. As the Humane Society does in every
rescue, the team carefully documented evidence for future
use in the courtroom.
“We spent from 11:30 p.m. to 6:30 a.m. with documentation,”
said Rickey. “We found antibiotics and other drugs, a treadmill
and plenty of other evidence of a
dogfighting operation.” Despite the
long hours and the danger, “It is a
rewarding moment to get the dogs
out of the situation and make a
difference,” Rickey added.

released to a rescue group. Haley flew to California in March.
Racer is an experienced dog evaluator and advocate for
pit bulls. Lockwood is senior vice president of Anticruelty
Initiatives and Legislative Services for the American Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. The two men were
among those appointed by the federal court to evaluate and
recommend placement of the dogs seized last July from
former Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick.
“I was glad to be a part of the Humane Society of
Missouri evaluation process for these dogs,” said Racer.
“It is indicative of a more progressive way of thinking about
dogs from fight situations. These dogs are victims of animal
cruelty and should be given the opportunity and dignity to
be evaluated as individuals — like any other animal from a
cruelty case.”
Evaluators took each dog through a series of situations
designed to determine their behavior, reactions and
aggressiveness toward humans and other dogs. At the
recommendation of the evaluation team, and due to
extremely aggressive behavior toward other dogs, one twoyear-old male was humanely euthanized. “I was impressed
with the knowledge and skill of the staff and their dedication
to the best interests of each of these dogs,” said Racer. “Not
many organizations would dedicate the time and resources
it has taken to ensure the best outcome for these animals.”
Lockwood reviewed the Humane Society’s evaluation
of each dog. “I believe the Humane Society of Missouri is the
first animal shelter in the country to use what we learned
from the Michael Vick case and go to the lengths they have
to care for, evaluate and possibly place dogs from a fighting
situation,” he said. “I compliment them on the thoroughness
and professionalism of their process. Whatever the eventual
outcome for each of these dogs, they have received the most
consideration possible.”
Eliminating Future Scars
A proposed bill in the Missouri Senate (SB819)
would make it a felony to be a spectator at a
dogfight. It is already illegal to participate in
dogfighting. Debbie Hill, vice president of
Operations at the Humane Society, testified for
the bill at a February hearing.“We don’t want to
forget what the true face of dogfighting is,” Hill
said. “It’s not Michael Vick. It is the animals who
are abused in this fashion.”
Please contact your Missouri senator to support
passage of this bill and enforcement of existing
animal protection laws. Enter your complete
nine-digit zip code at www.hsmo.org/legislation
to find names and contact information for your
legislators. Sponsors of the bill, Senator Scott Rupp
R-St. Louis and Senator Chuck Graham, D-Columbia,
also would appreciate your messages of support.

Giving Second Chances
“We are committed to giving these dogs who came from such
horrible abuse the absolute best chance for a good life,”
commented Debbie Hill, vice president of Operations. “It is
a tragedy that because of their mistreatment by humans for
financial gain and so-called sport, some may not ever be able
to be placed in a home situation.”
Through the dedication of three rescue groups, five of
the adult dogs from the Stoddard County dogfighting situation
are already spoken for. The beagle found a new home, as did
five of the seven puppies. The other two puppies, both male
can be adopted through the Humane Society of Missouri.
“We are tremendously grateful to the Missouri Pit Bull
Rescue Group in Kansas City, Mutts-n-Stuff of Foristell
and Our Pack in California,” said Cyndi Nason, Adoption
Centers director.
“We are very interested in working with other bona-fide
pit bull rescue groups in the United States to place as many
of these dogs as possible,” Nason said. Interested rescue
groups should contact the Humane Society of Missouri at

Volunteer Spotlight
Meet A Volunteer Who Goes
by the Numbers!
Tom Martin is a longtime volunteer supporting the well-being
of animals. He started volunteering for Adopt-A-Stray which
was eventually acquired by the Humane Society of Missouri.
He stayed with us as we moved to our beautiful Chesterfield
Valley Center in Boone’s Crossing. Even though the location and
staff changed, Tom has remained loyal to helping the animals
and volunteering as a Pet Pal (dog walker). “The dedication
and commitment that Tom gives us is awesome. He is an
accountant, but even when he is busy with tax season, he
continues to give volunteer hours,” said Tammi Britton,
Adoption Center manager at Chesterfield Valley Center.
“The Chesterfield Valley location offers Pet Pals more
space to exercise and walk the dogs. I really enjoy it — it’s
fun!” says Tom, who is now semi-retired. “I get exercise along
with the dogs. While walking them, you get to know their
personalities and it is easy to get emotionally attached to
them. But I know the staff takes good care of them and finds
them good homes.”
“Tom told me one of the perks of walking dogs is that he
found 16 cents in the parking lot! I hope he declares that income
in his 2007 taxes!” said Lauren Connors, volunteer coordinator.

Pet Advice
Vaccinating Your New Pet
My new Beagle-mixed puppy is eight weeks old and had her first vaccination a few days ago.
My veterinarian advised me not to take her to public places where other dogs aggregate, such
as parks, before she had additional vaccinations and reaches the age of 16 weeks. He said
taking her to puppy-obedience class is OK because it is a controlled environment. Why is that
one vaccination not sufficient? My previous older dog only got one vaccination every year.
Newborn animals arrive from a sterile environment (the
uterus) into a world of micro organisms such as viruses and
bacteria. Fortunately, through the process of nursing, they
absorb maternal antibodies contained in the mother’s milk,
which provide temporary protection against potentially fatal
diseases, for example, distemper and Parvovirus infections.
After weaning, usually at six to eight weeks of age, these
passively acquired antibodies gradually decline, reaching
insignificant levels by about 10-16 weeks of age.
Vaccination of young animals is usually started at six
to eight weeks of age. However, still circulating maternal
antibodies can temporarily interfere with the production
of active antibodies by the immune system of puppies. To
overcome this resistance, additional booster vaccinations
are administered, usually some weeks apart.
Certain infectious organisms, such as Parvovirus can
persist in an uncontrolled environment like public parks and
streets for some months. It is advisable to avoid these public
areas during that vulnerable age of eight to 16 weeks.
Dr. Suzanne Saueressig, the first practicing female veterinarian in Missouri, has been helping people with their pets
at the Humane Society of Missouri since 1955. If you have a
health question about your pet, email [email protected].

Behavior Tip
Dealing with Normal Puppy Behavior:
Nipping and
Rough Play
When puppies play with each other, they use their mouths.
Therefore, puppies usually want to bite or “mouth” hands
during play or when being petted. With puppies, this is
rarely aggressive behavior in which the intent is to do harm.
Because puppies are highly motivated to exhibit this type of
behavior, attempts to suppress it or stop it are unlikely to be
successful unless you give your puppy an alternative behavior.
The goals of working with this normal puppy behavior are to
redirect your puppy’s desire to put something in her mouth
onto acceptable chew toys and to teach her to be gentle when
a hand is in her mouth.
Encourage Acceptable Behavior
•Redirect your puppy’s chewing onto acceptable objects by
offering her a small rawhide chew bone or other type of chew
toy whenever you pet her. This technique can be especially
effective when children want to pet her.
•As you or the child reach out to scratch her behind the ears
(not over the head) with one hand, offer the chew bone
with the other. This will not only help your puppy learn
that people and petting are wonderful, but will also keep
her mouth busy while she’s being petted. Alternate which
hand does the petting and which one has the chew bone.
•At first, you may need to pet or scratch your puppy for short
periods of time, since the longer she’s petted, the more likely
she is to get excited and start to nip.
Discourage Unacceptable Behavior
You must also teach your puppy to be gentle with hands,
and that nipping results in unpleasant consequences for her.
Teach your puppy that nipping “turns off” any attention and
social interaction with you.
•After a nip, look your puppy right in the eye, and yell “OUCH”
as though you’ve been mortally wounded, then ignore her.
Leave the room if you must, but ignore her until she’s calm,
then try the chew bone and petting method again. It’s even
better if you can coax your puppy into a sitting position using
food. It may take many repetitions for her to understand
what’s expected.
•Nipping and mouthing hands can also be discouraged by
loosely holding your puppy’s lower jaw between your thumb
and forefinger after she’s taken your hand in her mouth.
Don’t hurt her by squeezing too hard, just gently hang on
so that wherever her mouth goes, your hand hangs on. This
will quickly become tiresome and she’ll eventually pull
away. After several seconds, release her jaw, but continue
to offer her your hand. If she licks or ignores it, praise, pet
and offer a tidbit. If she closes her mouth on your hand
again, repeat the procedure.
•A third alternative is to wear cotton gloves coated with a substance with an unpleasant taste such as Bitter Apple. In this
way, your puppy will learn that hands in mouth taste bad. For
this method to work, every time she nips your hand she must
experience this bad taste. The possible disadvantage to this
method is that your puppy may learn hands with gloves taste
bad and those without gloves don’t.
Remember that any of these three methods will probably not
be effective unless you work hard to teach your puppy the
right behavior by offering her an acceptable chew toy.
Jumping Up
When your puppy jumps up on you, she wants attention.
Whether you push her away, knee her in the chest or step
on her hind legs, she’s being rewarded for jumping up
(even though it’s negative attention, she’s still getting
what she wants).

Behavior Tip
Never play “tug-of-war” or wrestling games with your puppy if
you’re having a nipping problem. These types of games encourage out-of-control behavior, grabbing, lunging and competition
with you. These aren’t behaviors you want her to learn.
A Note About Children and Puppies
It’s very difficult for children under eight or nine years old
to practice the kind of behavior modification outlined here.
Children’s first reaction to being nipped or mouthed by a puppy
is to push the puppy away with their hands and arms. This will
be interpreted by the puppy as play and will probably cause
the puppy to nip and mouth even more. Dogs should never be
left alone with children under ten and parents should monitor
closely all interactions between their children and dogs.
For information about Humane Society of Missouri
Puppy Classes, contact our Obedience Training phone
line at (314)647-8800, ext. 404.
When Your Puppy Jumps Up
•Fold your arms in front of you, turn away from her and say
“off.” Continue to turn away from her until all four of her feet
are on the ground, then quietly praise her and give her a treat.
•If she knows the “sit” command, give the command when all
four of her feet are on the ground, then quietly praise her and
give her a treat while she’s in the sitting position. When you
begin to praise her, if she begins to jump up again, simply
turn away and repeat the step above. Remember to keep your
praise low-key.
•When your puppy realizes that she gets no attention from you
while she’s jumping up, but does get attention when she stops
jumping up and sits, she’ll stop jumping up.
•Remember, once you’ve taught her to come and sit quietly
for attention, you must reward her behavior. Be careful not
to ignore her when she comes and sits politely, waiting for
your attention.

Thank you.
What Not To Do
Attempts to tap, slap or hit your puppy in the face for nipping
or jumping up are almost guaranteed to backfire. Several
things may happen, depending on your puppy’s temperament
and the severity of the correction:
•She could become “hand-shy” and cringe or cower whenever
a hand comes toward her face.
•She could become afraid of you and refuse to come to you
or approach you at all.
•She could respond in a defensive manner and attempt to bite
you to defend herself.
•She could interpret a mild slap as an invitation to play, causing
her to become more excited and even more likely to nip.

The 2008 Bark in the Park Mascot is...
JaImE !
More than 1,600 of you voted and Jaime became
leader of the pack to take her place as the official
Mascot for Bark in the Park.
Jaime, a five-year-old Basset Hound, was
nominated by her owners Amy and Todd Ribick
because they felt she is a symbol of hope for all
senior rescued dogs waiting for loving homes. Jaime
was rescued by Guardian Angel Basset Rescue.
Her first five years were far from happy as she was
neglected. She grew up with a deformed leg due
to lack of proper veterinary care. Amy and Todd
are proud that she has become part of their
forever home.
As the Bark in the Park
2008 Mascot, Jaime will
lead the Dog Walk on
May 17. She will
receive a year’s
supply of Purina®
dog food and be
featured on
thousands

Turning on the
(Equine) Lights
Abused and neglected horses come to Longmeadow Rescue
Ranch in pretty bad shape. They are often malnourished and
have received little or no veterinary care. Their hooves are
misshapen and infected; their coats are matted or they have
rain rot and other chronic skin conditions; they have worms
and other internal maladies. These horses are fearful of
humans and their new surroundings. Many cling to the back
of their stalls, refusing to even come to the stall door.
Many potential horse adopters come to Longmeadow
as relatively new horse owners. They want a horse for their
teenager or themselves but have little experience with the
challenges of working with a rescue horse.
Bridging that gap between rescued horse and potential
adopter is the goal of the horse training program recently
initiated at the Ranch. “We realized we needed to correct that
mismatch,” said Debbie Hill, vice president of Operations for
the Humane Society of Missouri and Longmeadow Rescue
Ranch. “Both the horses and adopters need to have an understanding of each other. We want the animals we place to live
in ‘forever’ homes and that means doing everything we can to
ensure adopters get the horse they want and the horses get
the home they need.”
That’s where horse trainer Scott Jaycox comes in. Hired
in August of 2007, Jaycox is a life-long Missourian and horse
lover. A veteran of the first Gulf War, Jaycox says he’s been
involved with horses all his life. “I grew up in west St. Louis
County when it was still ‘country’,” he explains. “We always
had horses and I loved working with them. Coming to
Longmeadow is my perfect, dream job.”
Jaycox says Longmeadow’s horse training program is as
much about educating the horses as helping potential adopters.
“We use a ‘soft touch’ method with all of our horses. We work
to change their attitude toward humans so they enjoy their
job of being a great personal horse. Then we work with the
adopters so they understand what works best for the particular horse they want. It’s so much more than just teaching a
horse to move forward, stop, turn or yield a leg to us.”
“The best part of my job is when the light comes on in a
horse’s eyes. It’s just great when you know the trust is there
and the horse truly gets what he or she is supposed to do.”
Hill says the success of the new training program can be
measured by the numbers as well as comments from adopters.
“Scott’s personal attention to recent adopters has been enthusiastically received. They tell us they have learned so much and
will be much better horse owners as a result of our training
program.” Hill also notes that in the recent very weak horse
market, adoptions have remained steady at Longmeadow.
“Without this new program, horse adoptions could have
plummeted. Scott’s ability to work so well with both the
horses and adopters ensures we accomplish our mission of
rescue, rehabilitation and adoption.”

Trouble
in Paradise
By Edward F. Reilly, Muhm and Reilly, LLC
Ripped from the pages of today’s headlines, as they say, is
another story dealing with the question of estate planning
for pets. Trouble, a white Maltese owned by the late Leona
Helmsley, proprietress of the Helmsley Hotel chain, appears
to be the beneficiary of a 12 million dollar trust, according to
the provisions of Mrs. Helmsley’s last Will filed in the New
York Surrogate (probate) courts.
This story, widely reported in the media last fall
(Mrs. Helmsley passed away August 20, 2007), does not fully
disclose what really happened. True, the Will does direct a
gift of 12 million dollars to the Leona Helmsley July 2005
Trust, and the same provision of the Will gives Trouble to
Mrs. Helmsley’s brother, but that is all that the Will discloses.
Since the July 2005 Trust was not part of the Will, and was
not filed for probate, the provisions of the Trust for Trouble’s
benefit are unknown.
This situation, though, highlights some of the issues
that should be addressed in planning for the future care of
beloved pets. Who will care for the animal on a day-to-day
basis? What amount will be required for the care of the
animal? Who will manage that fund? Where will any money
left over at the death of the pet go? Missouri and other states
have adopted a framework for “pet trusts” in recent trust
law legislation (see Section 456.4-408 Revised Statutes of
Missouri). While the trust approach may be more complex
than necessary in some cases, or not appropriate in others,
it does respond to these questions, once the basic questions
(who will care for the animal, etc.) have been answered.
Pet owners should periodically review their estate plans
to be sure this planning adequately addresses the needs
of their pets.
If you have questions about planned gifts, please call Patricia
R. Cassens, CFRE, at the Humane Society of Missouri,
(314) 951-1584 or email at [email protected].
