Human and canine guests at this<br />

year’s 8th Annual <strong>PAWS</strong> <strong>Chicago</strong><br />

Beach Party proudly stood by<br />

as Governor Quinn signed the<br />

Antifreeze Safety Bill and Primate<br />

Pet Ban. The Antifreeze Safety<br />

Bill requires the addition of a bitter<br />

flavor agent to antifreeze and<br />

engine coolant to help prevent pet<br />

poisoning. The Primate Pet Ban<br />

prohibits people from keeping<br />

primates as pets. Governor Quinn<br />

brought his own dog, Bailey, who he<br />

said “is a strong supporter of these<br />

two bills.” He also thanked <strong>PAWS</strong><br />

<strong>Chicago</strong>’s strong commitment<br />

to making sure our animals are<br />

humanely treated.<br />
