DOGS DESERVE BETTER is a non-profit organization dedicated to freeing the chained dog, and bringing our 'best friend' into the home and family.
Heidi Jones, owner of Pup-Eez Professional Pet Care, is very proud to be Dogs Deserve Better's area representative for Broward and Miami-Dade Counties.
In early 2010, Heidi Jones introduced specific, attended only anti-tethering legislation to the mayor and commissioners of the City of Pembroke Pines, Florida. This ordinance was unanimously passed in August, 2010, placing it amongst the most restrictive in the entire country, short of an all-out ban. We hope other municipalities and states will consider adopting this ordinance.
Dogs Deserve Better, 2003 First Place Winner of the ASPCA - Chase Pet Protector Award, is a voice for chained and penned dogs, whose sadness speaks only through their eyes. As the days become years, many of these dogs sit, sleep, eat, and defecate within the same 10-foot radius. Chained by the neck, they exist without respect, love, exercise, social interaction, and sometimes even basic nourishment.
They live as prisoners, yet long to be pets & companions.
