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 />
