Bad economy also bad for Lubbock area pets - KCBD NewsChannel 11 Lubbock

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - Animal abandonment and cruelty is on the rise in Lubbock.  At least, that's what we hear from some local folks who provide safe haven to animals.  NewsChannel11's Photojournalist Tim Honeycutt shows us in his video essay how some four-legged Lubbock residents are suffering in a bad economy.

You can help some of the animals in this video by calling the Humane Society at (806)799-7387 or the Haven Animal Shelter (806)763-0092.
