Nathan Winograd admits he is just an "author." Perhaps he should clarify that as "fiction author."

Nathan Winograd, author, nokill, consultant, slow hill, inhumane, liar, attack, defamation
Finally Nathan Winograd shows his true colors. He admits he is merely an "author." He doesn't state he's a nokill consultant anymore as that business went under years ago. He also is not a shelter director. All he does is write fiction. 99% of what he writes is hate speech and defamation against HSUS, PETA, ASPCA....

While he lists he's an author he still has a non-profit No Kill Law and Advocacy. He asks people to donate to that organization. What does that organization do? It pays Nathan an annual salary. It also pays for office expenses, internet, travel.... He does do one event a year where he charges people to listen to his hate speech. At the event he tries to sell his book. In fact he went on a book tour that was paid for by his non-profit. The tour coincided with him speaking in some small rooms wherever he was.

The nonprofit also paid to make a movie about himself. He used donations to make a "documentary" about himself being the "originator of nokill."

He just paid for this ad and website against PETA. He bought this domain name. It's listed as his. Donations well spent?

Nathan Winograd, whypetakills, fraud, liar, nokill, 
Why does Nathan Winograd hate PETA, HSUS, ASPCA, Best Friends....? He's jealous of their money, huge donations. He gets $5, $10 there from little old cat ladies. The big groups get major donations from major companies. No big sane group would give him a penny except the meat, fur, dairy industries.

NoKillLaw $300,000
HSUS $125,000,000
PETA $35,000,000
ASPCA $171,000,000
Best Friends $64,000,000

This is too much. Nathan is verifiable. He spent money to send out a press release asking Sam Simon to take back the money he is giving to PETA. His wife, family need to do an intervention with him. This is very crazy.

Nathan Winograd spends 100% of his time and donations NOT helping animals but himself

Nathan Winograd claims his non-profit No Kill Law and Advocacy Center's mission is "The No Kill Advocacy Center Is working to end the systematic killing of animals in shelters through direct assistance, education, litigation, legislation, advocacy, conferences, seminars, publications, studies, and more." His main programs are his annual conference which costs him $111K and brings in $82K. Another one of his "programs" is a "feature length film about himself." $21K in expenses, no revenue in 2013. He says he DIRECTLY helps shelters, rescue groups which costs him $79K with no revenue. He admits he's a lobbyist. How is he helping them directly when he  has no animal related expenses, costs? Telling a dog that PETA kills animals does not help dogs.

Nathan works 40 hours a week and makes $60,000/yr paid by donations to his non-profit. He lives off of his non-profit.


Nathan Winograd, income, salary, $60,000, year, No Kill Law and Advocacy Center

He pays $55K/yr for "professional programmatic services." WTH is that? Is this just a way to secretly funnel more money to himself? He claims he is an SPCA, humane society. No, he is not. He did not file as an SPCA. That is a completely different type of corporation. He's a lawyer and knows he's not a 10400 corporation i.e., "§ 10400. Formation; number and qualifications of organizers; articles of incorporation. Corporations for the prevention of cruelty to animals may be formed under the Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation Law (Part 2 (commencing with Section 5110)) by 20 or more persons, who shall be citizens and residents of this state. If the corporation is formed on or after January 1, 2011, its articles of incorporation shall specifically state that the corporation is being formed pursuant to this section."

He claims he provides direct assistance to animals, animal shelters and animal rescue groups. I don't see $1 spent on animal food, animal supplies, veterinary bills....nothing. He spends less to help animals than PETA, HSUS, ASPCA, Best Friends... Who the hell is he to state they barely spend anything to help animals when he spends nothing, zero, zip?

Nathan Winograd has received $1,234,145 from the public from 2009 to 2013 yet he has not spent one penny on animals. Nathan tells people to follow the money and that is what I'm doing.


Below is first page of Nathan Winograd's 990 tax return for 2013 for his non-profit personal piggy bank No Kill Law and Advocacy Center. Obviously having a non-profit is more profitable to him than having a for-profit No Kill Solutions which he had to shut down because he was not making enough money. Notice Nathan is the accountant and did the books.

I went back two more years. Nathan has not spent anything on animals. How does he think yelling at PETA, HSUS, ASPCA helps animals? It doesn't. For people in the know he looks like an idiot. All the well respected organizations have no respect for Nathan Winograd who just rabble rouses. Cities, Counties definitely don't want to have anything to do with him after he's stabbed them in the back. There's a reason he was fired from SFSPCA besides mere breach of contract.

2012 990
http://www.guidestar.org/FinDocuments/2012/201/648/2012-201648359-0900b1c2-9.pdf

2011 990. He spent $147K making a film about himself, $90K to host a conference to honor himself, $54K to help shelters, rescue groups by talking at them. No direct assistance with animals. He spent $291K and not one penny went to animals. He gave himself another $60K in salary. Every penny went to Nathan or to honor him. He made $165K in membership dues. People pay to join his group just to read his articles? He got $50K from people who registered for his conference where he praises himself. He had $55K in office expenses. He doesn't even have an office. He spent $90K for himself to go to other conferences and meetings. I think this was his book tour. He had $96K in professional services. Like what? I bet he shoveled more money to himself in this category.

Here is the history of Nathan Winograd when he was No Kill Solutions a for-profit consulting company that went under. I wrote these articles years ago and just reposted them here.

My personal history and interactions with Nathan Winograd dating back to 2005

http://animaladvocatesmarycummins.blogspot.com/2013/10/nathan-winograd-no-kill-solutions-no.html

Nathan Winograd the misinformation machine. His attacks against PETA, HSUS, ASPCA, Best Friends are generally false.

http://animaladvocatesmarycummins.blogspot.com/2014/11/nathan-winograd-misinformation-machine.html

Here's a Nathan Winograd timeline I made when I tried to verify his claims.

http://animaladvocatesmarycummins.blogspot.com/2014/05/nathan-winograd-no-kill-solutions.html

Honest article about one of Nathan Winograd's presentations. I was there and can vouch for the crazy things he said. They are also directly quoted in his book. He really said that "cats are more likely to get rabies from humans than we are to get rabies from cats."

Here is a copy of Ed Boks, Edward Boks, Edward Albert Boks Wikipedia entry before it was deleted.

Just found the file. Here it is. Boks is the one who begged to have the page removed.

Ed Boks

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ed Boks (Born August 14, 1951 in Harper Woods, Michigan) is the former head of the Los Angeles
Department of Animal Services (January 2006 to April 2009). "Boks resigned in the face of pressure
from officials, with complaints over his decision-making and operation of the department."[1]
During his tenure at Los Angeles Animal Services Boks' term was marred with controversy.[2]Boks'
predecessor, Guerdon Stuckey, had been the target of threats and a smoke bomb attack by extremist
animal rights activists. Stuckey was fired by Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, and replaced by
Boks.[3] Dr. Gary Michelson introduced Ed Boks to the Mayor and suggested that he hire him in
exchange for $10,000,000.[4][5][6] Animal Defense League Los Angeles and the Animal Liberation
Front attacked Ed Boks through protests at his residence and direction action[7]. Boks was known for
advocating a "No-Kill" approach in his previous positions in Maricopa County, Arizona and New York
City though he never made any of those shelters "No-kill."[8]He was fired from New York City Animal
Control after being sued for racial discrimination. He fired an experienced black employee so he could
hire his white friend who had a criminal record. The judge ruled that "defendant terminated plaintiff
because of his race."[9]

During his last year at Los Angeles Animal Services, criticism of his performance grew, as members of
the city council and his own staff increasingly expressed their lack of confidence. City Councilmember
Richard Alarcon made a motion for a vote of "no confidence" in Ed Boks[10]which was seconded by
Councilmembers Dennis Zine, Bernard Parks, Eric Garcetti and Tony Cardenas.[11]Boks was also sued
by animal activist Mary Cummins-Cobb for sexual harassment. [12]The complaint states that Boks
"showed up at Plaintiff's home unannounced, uninvited, and drunk, after being told by Plaintiff not to
come" over.[13]Settlement was $130,000 which was approved by every council member.[14]
Boks was forced to resign his post and left Los Angeles Animal Services on April 24, 2009, effective
June 30, 2009. He spent his last two months out of the office with the Assistant General Manager acting
in his place.[15]Though LA Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa issued a statement thanking Ed Boks for his
service trying to make Los Angeles a "no kill" city, Ed Boks noted that it had been a mutual decision
between himself and city officials[16].

Since leaving Los Angeles Animal Services Boks applied for a job at Whatcom Humane Society for 1/3
his previous salary. [17]After much controversy caused by Boks' poor reputation and a Los Angeles City
press release which he falsified[18]that position was instead given to another candidate.[19]

Prior to being involved in animal control Boks was a Pastor at a Christian church and school in Phoenix,
Arizona in the 1980's. "Boks has an unlikely background: He never graduated from college, worked as a
minister and fought an allergy to cats much of his life."[20]

Nathan Winograd, no kill solutions, advocacy center, book redemption, fraud


I generally don't talk about Nathan Winograd because he's not a nice person. He defames, attacks and threatens to sue anyone if they don't support him. He's been attacking me for a while. He also plagiarized an article I wrote about wildlife in shelters. He added it to his newsletter and then to his Philadelphia nokill consulting report. I have copies. I will write a little bit about my personal history and involvement with Nathan Winograd to clarify things for people.

I first heard about Nathan Winograd in late 2004 from another rescuer. He said he could make any shelter nokill overnight. He said he's made every shelter he consulted with "nokill" over night. You just have to follow his ten basic programs which he outlined on his old website nokillsolutions.com. That was a California for profit consulting corporation C2673735 filed in 2004 then dissolved address 49 Via Palacio, San Clemente, California.

Nathan Winograd, No Kill Solutions, corporation, dissolved

This was his father in law's home which they bought in 2005 for $890K and sold in 2013 for $717K. Nathan Winograd was a consultant and gave seminars to teach others how to make shelters nokill. He sold a newsletter. That's how he made his living. Here is a copy of his old website http://web.archive.org/web/20041204055050/http://www.nokillsolutions.com/home.htm . This all sounded too good to be true but I could find no evidence at that time that he had failed, or succeeded. It was all just Nathan Winograd's word. Below is his brochure which he gave to me.


Nathan Winograd, No Kill Solutions, corporation, nokillsolutions.com
Nathan Winograd, No Kill Solutions, corporation, nokillsolutions.com

I was campaigning hard for Antonio Villaraigosa for Mayor in Los Angeles, California. I wanted LA to be "nokill." Antonio had a pro-animal campaign platform. He wanted LA to be nokill. Who wouldn't want the city to be "nokill?" I contacted Nathan Winograd and asked if he'd consult for LA if Antonio became Mayor. He said yes. I thought at the time maybe he charges $3,000 to $3,500 so I offered to pay for it. He said he would charge $20K per shelter and he included the annex (a warehouse) as a shelter. He wanted $140K to do approximately a month worth of work. I was like "whoa! I can't afford that. Neither can the City." Nathan then told me that his activists ADL ... would force the city to hire him and give him $140K. Then he said ADL told him that Guerdon Stuckey was going to get a $800K golden handshake. I told him that was not true. He said ADL's people got that inside information. I did an info act request and it turns out ADL was wrong. $800K was a waste management contract. Stuckey got a $50K handshake which was public.

Antonio became the Mayor and I asked Nathan to give him a proper estimate to consult. Nathan told me the Mayor himself must fill out his online form requesting a consultation. I told him someone in his office can do it. He said, no, it must be the Mayor. Here is the form. The incoming Mayor would have no way of knowing any of this information. The GM of Animal Services would but Nathan Winograd said the Mayor "MUST" fill it in personally.

http://www.animaladvocates.us/nathan_winograd_consulting_form.pdf

Mayor did not fill out his silly online form because he was swamped. The Mayor did agree to meet him thanks to stupid me and a person in the Mayor's office. Nathan Winograd then submitted a proposal to consult for LA City. I assume it was for a month of work for $140,000 as he quoted me. The Mayor offered Nathan Winograd the GM position of LA Animal Services. That paid $150,000/year at the time. Nathan Winograd declined. I believe he declined because he realized he could never make LA nokill overnight as he promises everyone. Nathan Winograd would also prefer $140,000 for one month worth of work instead of $150,000 for 12 months worth of work. He probably also knew the employees would eat him alive.

Nathan Winograd admitted later that day when he gave a "nokill" presentation at the Beverly Garland Hotel that he was offered the GM position. I was at that presentation in 2005. 99% of the presentation was how animal control enjoys killing animals. He spent 1% of the almost two hour presentation quickly rattling off the basic programs. Nathan Winograd did not invent the programs. They were "invented" many years earlier by others in New York and San Francisco.

Another group told me that Nathan already wrote a free nokill plan for LA City. I said "great! Where is it?" Nathan refused to give it to the city. If someone knew how to make a shelter nokill over night, why wouldn't they want to do that especially if they call themselves an animal lover? I give free consultations for humane wildlife control and how to save wildlife in shelters. I don't charge because I want to save animals. If I had the key to ending euthanasia in shelters, I would gladly give it to the world for free.

Nathan then was upset he didn't get the paid consulting gig. He told me that he took the equity out of his home to start for profit "no kill solutions" and was then forced to sell his home and shut down no kill solutions because he didn't make enough money selling consulting services. He then put his efforts into nonprofit corporation No Kill Law and Advocacy Center C2674760 IRS 20-1648359http://www.guidestar.org/organizations/20-1648359/no-kill-law-advocacy-center.aspx

Nathan Winograd, No Kill Law & Advocacy Center, 


Before Nathan Winograd shut down No Kill Solutions he did consult for a few cities such as Philadelphia. The failure in Philadelphia was huge. Nathan Winograd wrote a report, got his check, posted the report (I have a copy), said the City, shelter and employees were "committed." Soon after that an expose came out about the horrific conditions in the shelter from overcrowding. The SPCA had to step in and take over. Then Nathan blamed the City, shelter and employees saying they weren't "committed." He threw his client under the bus.

Nathan was hired to do a report for King County. Nathan got his check then posted a scathing public report online with data and photos taken during his private inspection of the shelter. The City had to write a rebuttal to his claims. They didn't get a consulting report with suggestions to make their shelter no kill. They paid money to be attacked.

Nathan consulted with another shelter after this. They asked for a confidentiality agreement after the vicious attack at King County. Consultants should always agree to confidentiality agreements. Nathan said "no" then viciously attacked that shelter and told everyone they wanted a confidentiality agreement which meant they were "evil" and "hiding dirty laundry." That was the last consulting he did as far as I know. If he really could have made a shelter nokill, he would have done it by now and be a multi-millionaire. Obviously he can't.

Nathan Winograd receives $60,000/year from this non-profit. His wife Jennifer is a board member. Nathan admits there is lobbying activity (see Guidestar link above). He spent approximately $200K to make a documentary about his book "Redemption" in the last two years. He has high unspecified "professional services" expenses yet they are not legal or accounting. Most of his income is from donations. Some is from selling tickets to his conference. I believe he is the sole author and owner of his book selling business. I don't think that is part of the non-profit. He now has four books including a Vegan cook book which oddly enough recommends using products with palm oil which is not vegan. He also recommends unhealthy vegan junk food.

His book publisher Almaden Books is actually just Nathan Winograd. His book is self-published. Here are some reviews of his book. I agree with them. His book is a long winded nasty rant against other animal rights, welfare and rescue organizations. He spews nasty misinformation which I feel harms the animal issue. There is pet overpopulation. 99% of the book is Nathan saying that animal shelters enjoy killing animals, there is no pet overpopulation and he alone has made shelters no kill. Only 1% a few pages in the back talk about the no kill programs. I've never seen anyone do this in a book before in my life. He footnotes his personal opinion in his book. He also cites many "personal communications" in his bibliography. Then in the end he admits his wife's parents are supporting them financially. If he could make an animal shelter no kill, he'd be wealthy He can't which is why his business went under.

People should realize that Nathan Winograd is friendly with the Center for Consumer Freedom. CCF is a paid lobby group that promotes alcohol, tobacco, animal research, fur industry, breeders, dairy, meat ranches, leather, anti-union. They are a non-profit that receives "donations" of about $1.4M/year to attack groups such as MADD, PETA, HSUS... They give almost all of that money to a "consultant" who does PR for these industries who happens to be the President of CCF. I believe it's a sham which I have posted about in this blog.

http://animaladvocateswildliferehabilitation.blogspot.com/2013/12/center-for-consumer-freedomhumane-watch.html

No animal lover should ever have anything to do with CCF. Because Nathan Winograd hates PETA which CCF attacks that is why Nathan is friends with CCF. Nathan Winograd has attacked PETA so viciously that PETA's lawyer had to send him a cease and desist letter. Here is the rest of the letter. http://www.rescuenetwork.org/articles/WinogradLetter.pdf

PETA cease and desist to Nathan Winograd who lies about PETA. I'll try to find the rest.

Dog "Harley" dumped at shelter will not be reunited with unfit lying owners. Leave No Paws Behind.

UPDATE: Dog "Harley" dumped at shelter to be reunited with unfit lying owners.
Mary Cummins, Animal Advocates, Leave No Paws Behind, rescue, Harley, Otto



UPDATE 03/17/2014: Good news! Toby of Leave No Paws Behind rescue has just agreed an hour ago not to give the dog back to the owners. Toby stated that she doesn't feel the traveling lifestyle would be good for Otto because of his age and health.

"All of that being said, and with Otto's best interest at heart, he will be remaining right here in our care and his humans agree."

In the meantime Christopher Gonzales took down his website and his church's Facebook group. I'm sure it's because that is where I found all the photos, videos and evidence which proves they are not sick, disabled, poor seniors who couldn't afford vet care. Toby is the one who released their names and profession to the public. She should not be mad at us for doing research and posting facts.

I just saw the original KTLA video with the phone conversation with Chris Gonzales. He lied about needing tires to try to garner sympathy and donations. Whenever he has car problems he posts on his page that he is praying for an "answer from God." Then one of his followers will PayPal him money then he thanks God for answering his prayer.

Original article,

Earlier I posted about the dog that was left outside the Baldwin Park, California animal shelter with a sad note. The note said the dog was 13 years old, vomiting and had bloody diarrhea. The owners said they were elderly, sick and couldn't afford to take the dog to the vet or have him euthanized. They allowed him to have mange for three years and be almost bald. They asked the shelter to euthanize him. Instead the shelter called "Leave No Paws Behind" animal rescue. They took the dog to the vet and treated it. Then they decided to try to find the owner. I wrote the blog entry to help. Friends of the owners saw the dog in media articles and came forward.

Here is an article that brings you up to date. When the owners saw that people wanted to give them money they gladly came forward to claim it giving news reporters their PayPal email. The rescue group said they will give them back their dog when it's healthy. They will pay for the dogs veterinary care.

http://ktla.com/2014/03/12/owners-to-be-reunited-with-dachshund-found-outside-animal-shelter/#axzz2wA1hlZpR

When I first read the note and saw the photo of the dog on Facebook I felt sorry for the dog and owners. The owners said they were both seniors, sick and poor. They said the dog was sick. Turns out that is not the case. We have ourselves some liars and con artists. Please, donate to Leave No Paws Behind because they do wonderful work but don't give anything to the owners of the dog. Do not PayPal them a penny. This is what I've found about them so far.

They are not senior citizens. They are not disabled. They are not poor. They are traveling ministers who give little talks then beg for money. They are not a legal church, corporation or non-profit. They make $60,000/year which they admitted to Manta. Manta gets the data from the owner of the business. The dog only had mites. He didn't have bloody diarrhea or vomiting. They left his mites untreated for three years. It's also a crime to dump an animal. They left it outside where anyone could have taken it and used it as dog fighting bait. California Codes. Penal Code. Part 1. Of Crimes and Punishments. Title 14. Malicious Mischief. § 597s. Abandonment of animals (a) Every person who willfully abandons any animal is guilty of a misdemeanor. Anyone who abandons an animal is subject to a $500 fine and/or up to six months in jail. Animal neglect is also a crime. Not providing veterinary care is animal neglect which is covered under 597.

Christine born about 1955 (Toby posted her age).  They have a daughter named Kirstie Elizabeth Gonzales (Chris posted this) who married x and x. She was born in Los Angeles, CA.

(FTR Christopher Gonzales is the one who posted his daughter and grandson's full name. It's in his bio that he hands out every time he goes somewhere to preach and beg for money. The rescue is the one who gave the public the full names and profession of Christopher Gonzales and his wife Christine Gonzales. I'm not posting private or confidential information.)

Sweetwind Ministries is not a legal non-profit or corporation in CA or AZ.
In Accord Ministries is not a legal non-profit or corporation in CA or AZ.

Christopher Gonzales supposedly told Toby that his church is covered under another legal church organization. He would not tell anyone the name of that organization. I personally don't believe him because he lies so much.

Chris Gonzales is not a PhD. He cannot call himself a doctor. He cannot use "Dr." in his name because it's a supposedly honorary degree, i.e. he didn't do anything to get it. In fact this honorary degree may not even exist. Even though he's not a PhD, he calls himself "Dr. Chris Gonzales." Even in his Twitter account he calls himself a Dr. He mainly talks about watching TV, food and driving.

Chris Gonzales, not a Doctor, public Twitter profile, In Accord Ministries
Video of Chris Gonzales. He's one of those faith healers that puts his hands on people and then everyone shakes like someone having a seizure. He likes to spit out mumbo jumbo made up words while doing so. He preys and prays on poor people who are sick who want him to bless and heal them. He obviously doesn't have the power to heal anyone. He invites people to meetings at Sizzler or the Old Country Buffet restaurants. People pay for their food, listen to him talk then he asks for money. He calls it a "love offering."  Toby now says the wife is on disability.

Chris made his videos below private. That's okay. I saved them. This clip directly below is made up of a few tiny clips of one short video. It is used for non-profit comment and education under the fair use of copyright act. Here Chris talks in tongues. Yes, he's saying jibberish. These people ask him to lay his hands on them and pray for health and wealth for them. If he had the power to pray for health or wealth....?  http://www.animaladvocates.us/chris_gonzales_in_accord_ministries.mov



Chris has removed his videos, pages and podcasts. I saved copies.

Christopher Gonzales, In Accord Ministries, Sweetwind Ministries, dog, Harley, Christine Klaas Gonzales. He lies and calls himself a doctor. Lying is a sin.
I generally don't care about anyone's weight except my own. In this instance I will say something. Christopher Gonzales is morbidly obese. If he has any health problems, they are most likely caused by being so obese. Chris Gonzales likes to thump the bible and quote scripture. While I'm Catholic and don't currently go to church I did go to Catholic school for many years. Gluttony is one of the seven deadly sins. It is to consume to the point of waste. Lust is also a sin. Chris lusts for food and money based on his Facebook page. Chris Gonzales lied which is yet another sin. He is not a doctor yet tells people he is. He also lied in the note he left with his dog. The bible tells us that God created animals. The bible also tells us that we must treat His animals well. If we neglect animals, we are neglecting God. As a supposedly religious man how can he commit so much sin? I believe it's because he's a fraud, a charlatan.

I emailed this blog entry to Chris Gonzales at all his email addresses asking for comment. No reply. The emails did go through. I did not call him or threaten him or his family ever. I have no intention of doing so.

I see no photos of Chris or Christine with this dog online. If he was with then for 13 years going everywhere with them, why are there no photos? There are a ton of photos of Chris. If he loved this dog, there would be photos of him with the dog all over. I noticed that Christine doesn't have a Facebook page, does not talk in any of the videos. I have a feeling this may have been her dog. Chris might have gotten sick of it and told her to dump it. She sounded sorry in the interview. Again, why no photos of Christine with the dog? I think Chris probably did not like the dog, might have been jealous.

After I posted the truth about Chris Gonzales I have been personally attacked in retaliation. Every word here is 100% the truth backed by facts and evidence. Most of it came from Chris Gonzales' website or Facebook pages.

A 13-year-old dachshund left outside an animal shelter with a note asking that he be put to sleep because his elderly owners could no longer afford to care for him was expected to be reunited with the couple soon.


Quoted KTLA article in part, "Otto, aka Harley, was to be reunited with his owners March 28. (Credit: KTLA)
The dog, named “Harley” by rescuers, was found tied to a basket outside the Baldwin Park Animal Shelter on March 6, according to Toby Wisneski, CEO and founder of Leave No Paws Behind.

Attached to Harley was a note explaining that he had gotten sick, was vomiting and had bloody stools.

“We are both seniors, sick with no money. We cannot pay for vet bills, or to put him to sleep. He has never been away from us in all those years, he cannot function without us, please put him to sleep,” stated the note, which ended without identifying the owners.

Wisneski received a call from the shelter and took the dog in knowing if she didn’t he would be put to sleep.

After receiving medical care at the East Valley Veterinary Clinic, doctor’s told Wisneski that Harley was going to be OK and had a couple of years left in him.

Determined to reunite Harley with his owners, Wisneski tracked down the couple and found out Harley’s real name is Otto Wolfgang Maximus.

“We just are living week to week,” one of the owners, who wished to remain anonymous, said in a phone interview. “We can’t even go to the hospital to get our treatment.”

The couple was informed that Leave No Paws Behind — described on their Facebook page as a nonprofit, foster-based rescue — would cover Otto’s healthcare and food costs for the rest of his life.

“We thought he was dead, but he lives,” said the owner on the phone. “He’s being well taken care of and, boy, we’re just so extremely grateful.”

The couple was expected to be reunited with Otto when they return to the area on March 28."
