Joyously Celebrating 40 Years of Service to Animals
W
ith great joy we celebrate our 40th year of helping animals in the Inland Empire. The
Humane Society of San Bernardino Valley that you see today is the result of a long history of
kindness and commitment to animals.
It took the dedication and hard work of a handful of area residents, all those
years ago, to lay the strong foundation for this organization that continues to
meet critical animal welfare needs in our community to this very day.
It all started with the vision of a very special leader. Joyce Young Martin,
pictured right, was the Humane Society of San Bernardino Valley’s founder and
true visionary.
Gathered around her kitchen table, she inspired others and led them to action in
the life-saving work of protecting and caring for animals in need. At that time,
there was no local humane society to call on for help. These early volunteers
didn’t wait for others to act, they listened to their hearts and took on the
responsibility to create positive change for animals in need. They started to
build a network of referrals for animal services.
Joyce Martin, Founder
Their first focus was in rescuing unwanted animals and finding homes for them. They improved the
lives of animals at the city shelter. Another of the founding volunteers, Sue Dawson, remembers, “We
did so many things for the benefit of the shelter animals, and
worked so hard to stop the sale of animals for research.” They
also advocated for change on behalf of local wildlife. With
letter-writing and legislative advocacy, they branched out their
efforts.
It didn’t take long for the cluster of core volunteers to
understand the root of the problem. As many animals as they
were adopting into good homes, many more were arriving at
shelters, equally in need, equally precious souls. The pet
overpopulation problem is staggering, nationwide, and urgent.
Joyce realized quickly that the solution hinged on spay and
neuter – the prevention of the wave upon wave of homeless

never experience a loving home and family. She cemented her
dream of opening our first low-cost spay/neuter clinic in 1980 to serve the local needs of San
Bernardino residents and their pets. Her passion for this mission was contagious.
The group of volunteers grew, and worked diligently to educate others on basic safety and pet
healthcare issues, to institute a humane education program in the public
school system, to empower others to stop the abuse of animals, and more.
In 1970, who would have thought the Humane Society of San Bernardino
Valley would come so far? Just like they envisioned, we still serve to prevent
and relieve suffering for many thousands of animals, through the spay/neuter
veterinary hospital, through Cruelty Investigations to act on reports of animal
abuse and neglect, and through Humane Education to reach children with the
message of compassion for all living creatures. Last year alone, more than
85,000 animals received a service at the Humane Society. We are a vital
resource in the community for animal welfare.
The first HSSBV clinic
on Highland Ave.
Our dear Joyce lived to see the new, much larger facility open in 2005. We are
grateful for the vision and diligent leadership she showed. Her mission was as
important in 1970 as it is today, if not moreso. With your support, we proudly
carry on.
The mission of the Humane Society of San Bernardino Valley is to prevent cruelty and neglect to animals;
to educate children and all members of the community about animal welfare issues; and
to provide for the health and well-being of animals with an emphasis on spay/neuter to prevent pet over-population.
Humane Officer Goes Above & Beyond
J
ust before Christmas, a family from the
east end of San Bernardino was faced with a
dilemma when their pet, a mastiff mix named
‘Lil Girl, was shot by someone with a gun and
needed immediate medical attention. The family
didn’t have the extra funds on hand to pay for her
costly emergency veterinary care, so they
quickly made the decision to return their
Christmas gifts in order to pay the bill at
the hospital and help their beloved family
pet.
When Officer Ashbaker from our Cruelty
Investigations Department went to assist
with the cruelty report, he heard
of the compassionate and
selfless deed the family had
done and was touched by the
sacrifice they made in order to
put their pet’s needs ahead of
their own. “People like that are
few and far between; these
people were willing to give up
Christmas to help their dog,”
Officer Ashbaker said.
He decided to go beyond his
duties to find a way to help them out. He
contacted Marsha Olguin at Mary’s Mercy Center in
San Bernardino and told her of the situation right
away. “We explained they had given up their
Christmas gifts to take care of their dog,” Officer
Ashbaker said. Marsha responded immediately and
was able to not only donate a full turkey dinner and
two boxes of food for Christmas dinner, but she
was also able to give them some toiletries to assist
them through a difficult time.
The joined efforts of ‘Lil Girl’s loyal family,
HSSBV, and Mary’s Mercy Center allowed
for a happy ending to a story that could
have ended very differently, if it weren’t for
everyone involved stepping up in kindness
and caring.
Officer Ashbaker was humbly
hesitant to tell this story, but we
wanted to share it as an example
of how the staff at the HSSBV are
the kind of people willing to go
above and beyond their normal
duties to help their community in
times of need. We are here
because we love animals and
want to see them have long and
safe lives with their loving
families. As Officer Ashbaker
said, “We are involved with our community in a
positive way. When you think of the animals in
need, you don’t realize all the people behind it.”
Warm Hearts Caring for the Cold-Blooded
A
ll too often, our humane officers have to step in and seize animals that are mistreated or
inadequately cared for, in the process of being sold or used as a business. This sad example of
improper care and neglect is no exception as our Humane Officers quickly learned when they arrived
at a business-owner’s house in early March to respond to a call of suffering animals.
What they found were two Russian tortoises and a bearded dragon, among other animals housed in improper
cages on shelves in a cold and dark garage. Due to the cold environment and poor
living conditions, the reptiles suffered from signs of metabolic bone disease – a painful
bone deficiency of the vitamins and nutrients necessary for survival, which also affects
the normal digestion of food in cold-blooded animals. They were in dire need of help.
“In my opinion, these people have no business selling animals,” Officer Ashbaker said.
The animals were immediately seized from the residence and transported to the Tribal
Reptile Company in Redlands the next day, who quickly responded and had the
animals housed in proper habitats in less than 20 minutes. “The bearded dragon
suffered so severely from bone disease that it lost mobility in most of its limbs,” store
owner Tim Samra said. “And the tortoises were dehydrated and malnourished.”
Thanks to the quick and generous actions of Tribal
Warm and comfy now!
Reptile Company, the animals are now recovering
from their past lives and have a happy and proper home at the store. In
fact, it will be their permanent home unless and until someone chooses
to adopt them who the Samras are convinced will properly care for them.
They allow adoptions for only the cost of the habitat itself, in order to
ensure that the animals do not have to suffer the same life again.
If you know of any animals who are not receiving the necessary and
proper care to survive, or if you feel that you may not be able to provide
the necessary care, call us so we can help. We want all pets to thrive!
I
Letter from the President
am pleased and honored to be part of the Humane Society of San Bernardino Valley’s 40-year
anniversary of service to our community. As stated on page 2, HSSBV was formed by a small
group of area residents who were concerned about pet overpopulation. These individuals chose to
concentrate on spay/neuter services to control the population levels as well as the prevention of animal
suffering. Today we accomplish this in many ways, which include our
veterinary services, cruelty investigations, and humane education. The
efforts of our founders would not have been possible then, or now, without
your generosity and support over these many years. Our 40-year
celebration is just as much yours as it is ours!
I am very proud of the work we do. Our dedicated medical staff and valued
volunteers have been a source of aid and comfort to those who could not
afford to go elsewhere. Within our Medical Clinic we provide low-cost spay/
neuter and basic medical services. Our Cruelty Investigation Officers and
Humane Educator touch the lives of thousands each year to help create a
better tomorrow for our beloved pets.
I am extending a personal invitation to you to visit us and our facility to see your donations at work. We
offer personalized tours of our facility which can be arranged through our Development Coordinator. We
look forward to seeing you.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, Staff and Volunteers thank you again for your generosity and
support as we look forward to another 40 years!

Volunteer of the Quarter
T
here are many friendly volunteers of all
walks of life who are happy to assist you at
the Humane Society. Our newest Volunteer
of the Quarter is certainly with the
best of the best, as she goes above
and beyond to help animals and
people, through her delightfully
engaging personality. We’d like to
honor a special lady that makes a

There are several things Linda said
she enjoys as a volunteer at
HSSBV, but it’s the friendly staff
she likes the most, as well as the
focus on education that the staff
here all take pride in. “I feel
education is the best way we are
helping the community,” she said.
She also helps to educate people in
her church and living community
about the services offered by the
staff here at HSSBV. For example,
“When someone has extra bags of
food that their pet doesn’t eat, I
tell them they can donate it, so our
humane officers can give it to the
animals in the community that may
need it,” Linda said.
She works in our administrative
offices and makes calls to confirm
spay and neuter appointments with
pet owners. Linda also makes sure
to remind them of the proper care

Humane Education
Critter Camp lasts a week, but the learning lasts a lifetime!
A
t Critter Camp we have one rule: Be kind.
Why only one rule? And why be kind? There are
several good reasons, of course. But at our
Critter Camp, we are striving to create a culture of
kindness. We want the students to truly believe that
through their compassionate words and acts of
kindness, they have the power to create a more
peaceful and harmonious society.
What is Critter Camp? It’s a week-long, interactive, animal-centered, hands-on
learning experience for third grade students, held twice a year at the Humane
Society during their off-track schedules. It teaches kids in unforgettable ways
about things like the differences between wild and tame animals, the wonderful
world of bugs, and service animals and guide dogs, as shown in these photos.
Some of our guest presenters included docents from
Moonridge Animal Park and San Bernardino County
Museum, Animal Ambassadors, cartoonist Darlene Douthit,
the Opossum Society of the United States, pet therapy
dogs, San Bernardino County Mounted Posse Search &
Rescue, Guide Dogs of the Desert, and the Parrot Patrol!
Thanks to Banfield Charitable Trust for sending the
FutureVet kits.
We gratefully acknowledge all of the exceptional individuals,
retired educators, and organizations that help us encourage
our youth to discover how to live their lives so that they
may always do less harm and more good.
Donations to the Humane Education program’s Critter Camp
are welcomed and go a long way to cover the expenses for
each session, which includes each child’s admission,
specialized guest presenters, materials, and snacks.
Sponsorship opportunities for Critter Camp are available!
Call us at (909) 386-1400 ext. 224.
Eddie, a Kind Kid
M
eet Eddie. Eddie decided to raise
funds to help abused animals.
After considering how his donation
could do the most good, we reached
the conclusion that purchasing
educational books called “What Is
Animal Cruelty?”, which would be read
by many students and hopefully
Eddie with his sister
shared with others, would have a
wonderful and long-time “ripple effect” to reach and teach
many people. Eddie took on this project and successfully raised
$420 to purchase 420 of these special books!
“I want the word of abused animals to spread like a bee
collecting nectar from a flower,” Eddie said. “The children are
like bees because they are collecting information and spreading
it to others.”
We appreciate you, Eddie, for choosing to make a difference
for animals. We couldn’t be more proud of this kind kid!
From the Doctor’s Desk
It’s spring, time to think about...
FOXTAILS: We are starting to see foxtails embedded in eyes and ears. These are grasses with a seed
carrier which is designed like a spike with tiny hairs that keep the nettle burrowing forward through
whatever is in the way. The foxtail seed carrier can cause severe injuries and even death. Remove the
plants from your yard and steer clear of foxtails on your walks. Check your pet for foxtails daily.
Plant:
Seed Carrier:
FLEAS AND TICKS: Warmer weather will bring out these pests. Stock up on Frontline for your dogs and
cats to keep these pests off them and out of your home.
LOVE IS IN THE AIR: Spay or neuter your pet! Our most common emergency is dealing with dogs that
have been out in traffic and hit by a car. They are almost always unspayed or unneutered pets out
looking for a mate. Our second most common emergency is a pregnant dog unable to deliver puppies
naturally – called dystocia. This is a life-threatening emergency, expensive to treat, and often is fatal for
the mother and/or the pups. Also a common emergency is an unspayed female dog with an infected
uterus – called pyometra. This, too, is life threatening, very expensive to treat, and the dog is often
euthanized. It could be prevented! Spaying and neutering is ALWAYS less expensive.
PUPPIES AND KITTENS: You need to start their vaccines at 6-8 weeks old. Don’t wait! Spring brings
parvo and other viruses out to play havoc.
EARS: Ear mites are very rare in adult dogs, and only seen occasionally in puppies. They are seen
mostly in kittens, and occasionally in adult cats. If your dog or cat has itchy ears, have it seen by a
veterinarian. Many animals which have been treated for “ear mites” by the clerk at local pet shop, really
have a much more serious problem which
may be worsened by the ear mite
medication. NEVER use hydrogen peroxide in
ears (or eyes)! This will cause the formation
of bacteria which can be very difficult to
treat and may damage the animal’s hearing.
Give a Day.
Get a Disney Day.
CUTS & SCRAPES, BUMPS & BRUISES:
Simple cuts and scrapes should be gently
cleaned. Be very careful of using human
products on your pets. Dogs and cats will
lick off medication which may cause
vomiting or diarrhea. NEVER use
acetaminophen (Tylenol) in dogs or cats
– this is very toxic and WILL cause death.
PICNICS: Family gatherings mean fun food
for all – EXCEPT the dog. We frequently see
sick dogs usually three or four days after a
big weekend or holiday. Kids especially love
giving the dog a “treat” making him sick
with vomiting and/or diarrhea.
Do you have more questions? Ask us!
This helpful information was provided for you
by staff veterinarian, Dr. Albert.
T
he Humane Society was pleased to
participate in the very special “Give a Day. Get a
Disney Day.” volunteer program (which has now
concluded), by offering two fun opportunities – a
sewing project to make pet blankets for our hospital
patients’ cages and a grounds clean-up activity.
Just look at how hard the Calimesa students of
Mesa Grande Academy worked. Enjoy your class trip
to Disneyland!
Thank you to all those who support the mission of the Humane Society.

Letters of Love & Remembrance
Some time ago, our son and his wife
had to bring their aging and
suffering Mastiff to be put down.
In spite of the passing of time since
that day, they still remember the
support and compassion you gave
during that painful time.
On October 22, 2009, Ruby, our little cockalier spaniel,
lost her brave battle with Lymphoma, never letting it
get her down, and I might add, never
missing a meal or a treat.
Ruby had a zest for life like no other.
She and her faithful companion of seven
years, Rowdy, were like a married
couple, with Rowdy always looking after
Ruby. They took care of each other.
In keeping with our new family
practice of donating to charitable
groups as our form of gift-giving,
we are donating to honor our
daughter-in-law Joy’s birthday.
She is sorely missed by her mom Pam
Starkweather, dad Doug Bader, as well as cousins Ozzy
and Russo, and other extended family members.
May it help in some small way.
Love you lots, Ruby! We’ll see ya in Heaven!
