The animals deserve love
There are so many reasons why an animal we don’t want for our pet. Some of the worst excuses for this are: because we are tired and don’t have more time for them, because they are old or sick, because they do not fit into our newest furniture or because we want other animals for our Pet.That condemn them on suffering or death.Very small number of them manage to cope and find a new owner, where they will continue to live. It is really ugly.We must to realize that animals are living beings and not toys.We must to condemn people who kill animals or torture them, they really deserve a lot of love and tenderness and trust.
Finding a new home
Something has happened in your life and you can no longer take care of your pet. Or perhaps you have found a stray cat or dog and need to find him/her a home. Maybe a friend or a relative has died leaving one or more pets to be placed in new homes. You want to be able to do something to help find this animal a new and loving permanent home, rather than turn him/her over to the pound or the local humane society, where they may be euthanized
Police investigate RSPCA for animal cruelty over dog deaths. The RSPCA is being investigated by police over allegations of animal cruelty after its officers were accused of “inhumanely” using a bolt gun to put down unwanted dogs.
The charity is alleged to have ordered the destruction of ten German shepherd dogs whose owner had recently died. The dogs, which had been kept indoors for several weeks and were said to be aggressive and in poor condition, were killed with a captive bolt gun of the kind used in abattoirs to stun livestock before slaughter.
The use of captive bolt guns is deemed “inhumane” and “unacceptable” for the destruction of dogs by the World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA).
Animal shelters and dog rescue charities have condemned the RSPCA and accused it of failing to try to find new homes for the dogs.
Last month German Shepherd Rescue, which rehouses between 200 and 300 of the breed every year, complained to South Wales Police about the incident.
Jayne Shenstone, the founder of German Shepherd Rescue, said the dogs had a treatable condition called sarcoptic mange, a skin disease caused by a mite infection.
She said: “The RSPCA did not consult us or any other dog rescue centre. There was no vet present and there was no diagnosis. The dogs did not need to be killed, especially in such a brutal way.
“The RSPCA has claimed it’s the only time they have heard of such a weapon being used like this, but captive bolts are routinely issued to inspectors.
The RSPCA says that it would have been impossible to rehome the dogs and there was no alternative to having them destroyed.
But instead of being put down with a pain-free injection, they were caught with a “grab” pole – a noose at the end of a stick – before being dragged outside and shot in the head with the bolt gun, which fires a metal bar about three inches long into the animal’s brain.
According to the WSPA, use of the captive bolt gun to put down domestic animals is “unacceptable” because of the difficulty of ensuring a “clean kill”.
The RSPCA, which last year rehomed 15,872 stray unwanted dogs and destroyed a further 8,313, admits that it did not approach animal rescue shelters for help in finding homes for the animals.
