Petition to stop Greyhound Racing and abuse of millions of dogs
- In
Spain it's customary to sell former greyhound racers to hunters
who keep them only for the duration of the hunting season. The dogs
are then killed,usually by hanging: those who were good hunting
dogs die quickly; less competent dogs are subjected to a slow and
more agonizing death,sometimes taking hours to die.To see picturesclick

petition for the end of animal extermination by Brazilian Public
Health Authorities - There is no Brazilian who never felt disgust
at the sight of an animal being captured by the infamous dog catcher
animal control truck in Brazil. And as if being captured was not
bad enough, these animals are killed 3 to 15 days afterwards. The
conditions of most of these public kennels are precarious and this
fact, on its own, constitutes cruelty to the captive animals.To

Petition
to stop the torture of St. Benard dogs in China - -A WSPA investigation
in China has revealed a trend towards the gross intensification
of the trade in dog meat, with millions of dogs passing through
the hands of breeders and slaughterhouses every year. The Saint
Bernard is the latest breed of pedigree dog to fall victim to the
increasing commercialization of the dog meat industry, after producers
of the most commonly eaten dog in China - the Mongolian Chinese
Meat Dog - discovered the benefits of introducing a Saint Bernard
strain into the meat chain. Learn More at: http://www.wspa-international.org/campaigns/dogsinasia/stbernard1.html

A
Disturbing Account of the Cruelty to Dogs in Philippines
- Charles Wartenberg, Director of the International Wildlife Coalition
in the United Kingdom, recently returned from an investigative tour
to the Philippine Islands. What he witnessed shocked and appalled
him. Dog meat is consumed by humans in the Philippine Islands. The
conditions these tortured creatures must endure before their deaths
are incredibly horrible. Dogs are kept and transported tens or even
hundreds of miles in the cramped, hot, small wire cages you see
in the above photo. The animals receive no food or water and the
cages can be seen stacked on top of one another in market places
in temperatures in excess of 290C (900F). The
web sites below contain very distressing pictures.
