CSI: CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION, "LYING DOWN WITH DOGS"

A very special episode of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation will focus on the brutal and illegal world of dog fighting. The episode was created in close consultation with two ASPCA experts considered leaders in their field—Dr. Randall Lockwood, Senior Vice President, ASPCA Anti-Cruelty Initiatives, and Dr. Melinda Merck, ASPCA Forensic Veterinarian and the country’s only “animal CSI.” Both have assisted in the prosecution of several high-profile dog fighting and animal cruelty cases, including the recent Michael Vick case.

I recommend watching the show and if it meets the standards of showing the truth and the necessity of humane treatment then send them an e-mail or note or call and let them know you want more such responsible programming.

I will be watching and I will respond. Programs and sponsors pay attention and this is a powerful way to make a difference.
