Capitol in Chains: 54 Days of the Doghouse Blues

In August 2010, one woman carried a doghouse to the steps of the Pennsylvania State Capitol building and chained herself to it, seeking passage of a law protecting dogs from life at the end of a chain.Not knowing if she’d be arrested, ignored, or ridiculed, she set aside her fears and acted on behalf of the voiceless: dogs—the most social of beings—whose needs have been overlooked by those with the power to create chain-ge for their future.This is her story, and the story of the 54 days she and others spent chained at the bottom of the Capitol steps in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. May you be inspired, entertained, and educated about the needs of Man’s Best Friend, and how these needs continue to be negated in today’s society.Tamira Ci Thayne is the founder of Dogs Deserve Better, a national nonprofit advocating on behalf of chained and penned dogs. in 2016 she founded FreedomChaser Books, publishing books for animal activists and rescuers.
