RivCOanimalsPIO

RivCOanimalsPIO's channel is administered by Riverside County Animal Services Public Information Officer John Welsh. John worked for roughly 20 years as a print journalist before joining Riverside County Animal Services in 2006 to become the spokesman for homeless pets and for an organization that is one of Southern California's largest in the animal-control and animal-sheltering world. John tries to share all these tales of hurt pets, abandoned critters, trapped dogs, rescued dogs, dumped horses, emergency situations -- and all the various other tales that pop up -- to illustrate that we all need to treat our domesticated animals with much more dignity. Please visit Riverside County Animal Services' official Web site, www.rcdas.org for more information about this agency. Thank you for visiting. John Welsh can be reached at jcwelsh@rivco.org
