http://www.pet-abuse.com/profiles/5376 David Mabra continues to stand by his ‘friend’, Kimi Peck. Following is what he said in 2005, after she was legally, YES LEGALLY, forced out of Burbank. Mabra has to be aware that Chihuahua Rescue has raised well over $1,000,000.00 in donations, much of these donations were used to pay for illegal kennels and Kimi Peck’s personal expenses. Much of these donations were collected using deceptive advertising. David Mabra is a board member for Chihuahua Rescue aka the Dog Angels, he opens himself up to public scrutiney and many wonder how a man who claims to have dignity, would continue to sit on a board of ‘rescues’ run by a woman with a history of animal related neglect. Following is what David Mabra said in 2005 after Peck was legally forced out of Burbank. The comment was posted on one of the many websites the Chihuahua Rescue ‘group’ has created over the years to slander anybody who questioned serial animal hoarder Kimi Peck’s unethical treatment of animals and monies. Since he wrote this letter, Kimi Peck was legally forced to shut down two more illegal kennels, was arrested, harassed and stalked her Tehachapi neighbors and was forced to give up close to 200 animals to the HSUS…

From 2005: My name is David Mabra. I have been a friend of Kimi Pecks for 10 years and have assisted her in her rescue efforts for the last 9 years. I have been with her through the "thick and thin" of a rescuers life. It is a thankless life that VERY FEW people in the world would even attempt to live through. Everyone is a critic and it seems that everyone has a "better" way to save dogs. However, VERY FEW people have saved as many dogs as Ms. Peck and raised such awareness to the plight of dogs (and cats and other animals) as Ms. Peck. I can’t tell you how many hundreds of "home deliveries" I have been on with Kimi because she insists on making sure the dogs end up in the BEST possible enviornment. NINETY percent of the animals we have saved were "throw-aways" (old, sick, dying, or about to be euthanized to "make space" for other unwanted animals). I personally cleaned and fed these dogs and rushed them to the vets as needed. I witnessed Kimi spend EVERY cent she had and when she would run out of money she made the impossible happen and "pulled rabbits out of hats" to get dogs medical attention when needed. She also spent her own money to have dogs spayed and/or neutered to assure that there would be NO more unwanted offsprings. Her efforts at spay and neutering have saved our communities thousands of dollars in animal control. There are hundreds of testimonies from people who have adopted dogs that Kimi has saved and love her for saving their new "FAMILY MEMBERS". I was with Kimi at every location she was forced to move to on her trek to the current "beautiful" kennel in Burbank. There were times along the way that Kimi sacrificed her own dignity and welfare for the sake of the dogs. NO dog EVER went without food or water but I know for a fact there were times when Kimi went without the means to support herself at the expense of helping the dogs. It is true she struggled financially at times and wasn’t able to maintain the "idyllic" conditions that she wanted for the dogs, however, NO dog EVER suffered from neglect while in her care. Again, everyone thinks they have a "better" way (like euthansia – most of the dogs didn’t think that was BETTER!) and everyone is entitled to their "opinion" – including Kimi Peck. Three of the landlords along the way believed in euthansia because, in my opinion, they didn’t want to take time or money from their shallow lives to take care of those less fortunate. NONE of the landlords we had to deal with could even conceive of "GIVING UP THEIR LIFESTYLE" to save dogs. No one I have met before or since has the kind of compassion and comittment that Kimi Peck has. Kimi is not perfect, and she has had more than her share of trouble in her struggle to save dogs, but she has NEVER faltered or given up because some people didn’t agree with the way she did things. Even Jesus had people who thought his way was the wrong way. My hope is that everyone who reads the vile things being posted about Kimi Peck know that those things are meant to hurt Kimi – not help the dogs. The dogs in Kimi Pecks care are in a wonderful situation that has been APPROVED BY BURBANK ANIMAL CONTROL to stay in operation until she has been able to relocate to a bigger facility AT HER OWN REQUEST. I am posting my personal email address if anyone should question the authenticity of this posting. Also, if ANYONE uses my name in a "slanderous and/or libelous" internet posting I WILL take IMMEDIATE court action against such person(s). As the "so-called" lawyer for this group knows, Kimi Peck, as a celebrity is an easier target than an average citizen like myself. Sincerely, David Mabra

We have to feel bad for the innocent people who Kimi Peck is now dragging into her animal hoarding lifestyle. She dug up another 10-year-old picture she found when Delta Burke was helping her promote Chihuahua Rescue before Peck was given official title of ‘ANIMAL HOARDER’. Does Delta Burke know Kimi Peck’s criminal history including the fact she was ARRESTED in 2010!

**SO CAL DNA/DNR ALERT** KIMI PECK, of disgusting chihuahua hoarding fame is back on the rescue scene with a new FB page called "Chihuahua Rescue Beverly Hills". PLEASE DO NOT give this woman dogs, pull for her, fake adopt for her, etc. …DO NOT help her obtain any more pups. Simple Google check turns up all you need to know about Ms Peck’s "rescue" standards and practices. Please ‘flag/report’ her FB page and PM Angels for Animals Network immediately if you see her on any of our threads so we can ban her. Thank you and please help keep animals out of dangerous irresponsible hands. xx

One of the pictures Kimi Peck has decided to use to promote herself as a ‘rescuer’, again, with Allison Sweeney was taken ten years ago – since this picture was taken, Peck has been legally forced out of Burbank and Kern County due to animal related neglect. We highly doubt that Alison Sweeney would be promoting Kimi Peck now. Kimi Peck is NOT an animal rescuer. She is an animal hoarder.

We decided to re-post a blog written by Bakersfield.com’s, James Burger, back in January of 2010. Kimi Peck is not only an animal hoarder, she’s also, as we have stated over and over again, CRAZY. This blog will confirm that Kimi Peck is CRAZY. She’s always blaming somebody for her hoarding addiction. Here she blames retired County Supervisor, Don Maben

posted by Jburger on Jan 5, 2010 at 02:38 PM The hearing on Peck has begun. Engineering and Survey Services Director Chuck Lackey is making his report to the board. "We have determined that the keeping of approximately 170 dogs is not incidental to the use of the residential site," Lackey said. That means, basically, that the dogs aren’t there because Peck lives there but Peck lives there so she can keep the dogs there. That, Lackey said, is a violation of county ordinances. "She was informed that she could not keep the animals on the property unless she got a conditional use permit," Lackey said. Report Violation posted by Jburger on Jan 5, 2010 at 02:43 PM Peck told the county this morning that she removed around 40 dogs At the previous hearing Peck argued that the pets are her personal property, Lackey said, and that she is keeping old, injured and unwanted animals to live out their lives. That is, Lackey said, the definition of an animal shelter according to county law. "The housing of the animals has become the primary use of the property," Lackey said. To maintain a shelter on the property, Lackey said, Peck has to have a conditional use permit. But she has refused to apply for one. Even if the license issue is resolved that does not resolve the land use problems on the property, Lackey said. Report Violation posted by Jburger on Jan 5, 2010 at 02:58 PM Peck is arguing that county ordinances "Stop this witch hunt. Don’t make me sue you. Stop these fines now," Peck said. "How much did Michael Goland pay you." (Michael Goland is Susan Marlowe’s ex-husband and Peck has repeatedly accused county officials of being paid off by Goland to harass her.) Pecks calling the board corrupt and "unbelieveably cruel." "Just try and fine me," she dared supervisors. "try." Property owner Susan Marlowe up to speak. She said the ordinance allows the breeding and raising of animals is allowed on the property. Note: Peck said in the hearing that the animals are old and unlovely and are just on the property to live out their lives. Report Violation posted by Jburger on Jan 5, 2010 at 03:01 PM Marlowe said she has eviction proceedings started against Peck. Janet Wingfield, Kimi Peck’s supporter, is speaking. "I think she has been chased down like a rabid dog," Wingfield said. Report Violation posted by Jburger on Jan 5, 2010 at 03:07 PM "There is conspiracy against Ms. Peck," Wingfield said. Wingfield is accusing the county of conspiring with people who destroyed a water tank on Peck’s Water Canyon Road property. She’s accusing county animal control officers of falsifying court documents to try and get Kimi Peck. She and Peck both acused Supervisor Don Maben of vowing to get Kimi Peck in any way possible. Report Violation posted by Jburger on Jan 5, 2010 at 03:14 PM It’s back to staff. Ted James is speaking. He said Marlowe’s comments about animal breeding is in ordinances Before Peck left the Water Canyon Road property, James said, he and Lackey made it very clear that zone "She acknowledged that she needed to get a conditional use permit," James said. "There is no witch hunt. There is no sidestepping." Lackey said Peck is arguing that animal control regulations allow her to choose between licensing her dogs and getting a conditional use permit. But the county is arguing that she is violating land use laws — not animal control laws. They brought action against Peck, Lackey said, because "It appeared that Ms. Peck was ignoring our requirements to comply." "She moved to another piece of property and we started all over again," he said. He said they want Peck to keep the animals. But they also want her to comply with county zoning laws. Report Violation posted by Jburger on Jan 5, 2010 at 03:26 PM "We wouldn’t be here today if you had listened to staff and applied for a conditional use permit," Maben told Peck. "You picked a good location to move your dogs to." He called for a $5,000 fine against both Peck and Marlowe and an ongoing $500 fine against both – but freeze the penalty for 30 days to give Peck a chance to apply for a conditional use permit. "Why would I get a permit on a house I don’t own," Peck shouted from the audience. She said the house she lives in was sold at auction Tuesday morning. But Maben said he does not have that fact in evidence and can’t rely on it to make a decision today. County lawyer Bruce Divelbiss recommended that the supervisors might push back action on the issue until more information is produced. Peck just about got removed from the building by the Sheriff’s deputy in the back because she talked over supervisors and refused to leave the podium. There should be due notice for any buyer of the property, Lackey said. Supervisors delayed the issue until Feb. 9.

If a woman is found unfit in a Court of Law (according to her son) to be a mother, how can she be ‘fit’ to care for hundreds of animals? Thanks to Chris G who offered some insight on his ‘lack’ of relationship with his animal hoarding mother, Kimi Peck. We are posting this because we think it’s important for people to see that Peck abandoned her own two sons and now her granddaughter. She’s done the same to many animals. Let’s stop her from neglecting anymore!

Some of Chris G’s statement. Though he gave us permission to use his last name, we decided not to because he is such a nice guy. Oh, Chris was raised by his father and stepmother. Chris said his stepmom was great! Thanks, Chris! "I think it’s definitely obvious though that she has problems… Well there were certainly times when her house in Burbank that I would stay in when I was younger over the summer months was more than disgusting…I think it’s definitely obvious though that she has problems and also the psyche of a child that wants to get her way but can’t…I met that lady Janet a couple years ago and she was such a strange woman…It never really occured to me at a young age that there was anything wrong with the animals situation but now that I think back to it it’s pretty obvious…And to be honest I don’t really want a relationship with her anymore because it always seems to be more trouble then it’s worth…Yeah I really doubt she will be getting any help for her problems because she has lived in a weird state of denial all of her life and I doubt she is about to change any of that sometime soon…No Kimi never had custody over either of us because it was pretty much proven in court that she was unfit to be a mother…she didn’t even take care of her flesh and blood animals let alone some little dogs.

Visit Kern Hoarders facebook page to learn about infamous animal hoarders (just a few) that have operated hoarding sanctuaries in Kern County

Animal Hoarder Kimi Peck, 63, has a new alias, Cole Storribro – from Riverside California. Here is Kimi Peck’s latest description of Kimi Peck: ‘quite probably the most dedicated and selfless animal recuer and advocate ever: the successful and talented screenwriter, producer and former daughter-in-law of actor Gregory Peck, Ms. Kimi Peck.’

Thanks to everybody who has sent e-mails to Hoardingchihuahuas alerting us that Kimi Peck is actively and desperately seeking donations and animals to keep up her animal hoarding lifestyle AND addiction! Please, do NOT give Kimi Peck or anybody associated with her money and/or especially animals. We must not forget about Peck’s history of hoarding and alleged abuse/neglect – Remember this: Nearly Blind Chihuahua and Almost 200 Other Animals Now Safe – At Chihuahua Rescue in Tehachapi, Calif., The Humane Society of the United States and Kern County Animal Control rescued approximately 150 dogs ranging from Chihuahuas to border collies, 18 cats, 10 chickens, and several rabbits. The dogs will be available for adoption at the Sacramento SPCA. One small long-haired Chihuahua named George especially tugged at the rescuers’ heartstrings. A veterinarian discovered that his eyes were so badly infected that he was nearly blind. In spite of what must have been confusing changes that he couldn’t see, George gave friendly kisses and trusting tail wags to everyone who handled him. This rescue was a success for George and the other animals, but we rescued more animals in distress this week in Montana, and there will be more after that.
