We Have had the following in from Rishi in India; please help if you are able – also spread the word around the networks.

Thanks – SAV.

Hi Rishi,

I got your reference through Smita.

I am in dire need of a loving family/familes for my homeland strays. They are not safe in my neighbourhood as most of the residents here are quite cruel when it comes to parking their cars. They’ve run over the pups and their mother several times.

They are three very social, affectionate and tame pariah family. It started with one female (pepsi) and her daughter (cola) who’s pup (scooby) I’ve kept; he was run over as a pup. Now the Mother (Baby) in the photos is his elder sibling.

Her pics as a pup are there as well nursing on her mother. I want her and her two remaining pups (Gurly & Bear) to be adopted as the other people who are not dog lovers around tend to ill treat them a lot.(Baby’s been run over twice by cars who were parking at a very slow speed and saw her too but didn’t stop). 

Mentioned ahead is the link for their photos apart from the photos attached.

Europe: ENDCAP – Seeing an End to the Keeping and Exploitation of Wild Animals in Captivity for Human Entertainment

http://www.endcaptivity.org/

The European network to END the keeping of wild animals in CAPtivity

The Network

 

ENDCAP is a network of established European animal welfare organisations and wildlife professionals who share a common goal in wanting to see an end to the keeping and exploitation of wild animals in captivity for human entertainment.

 

Our Mission

ENDCAP is an international network of European organisations dedicated to the protection and conservation of wildlife in the wild and opposed to the exploitation of wild animals in captivity. Through scientific research, education, campaigning and sharing of expertise and information, the Network seeks to; expose neglect, suffering and cruelty endured by wild animals in zoological collections, circuses and dolphinaria; investigate the plight of wild animals held by private individuals and related trade issues; and, where possible, alleviate animal suffering. Focusing predominantly on the issues relating to zoos and circuses as well as the implementation and enforcement of national legislation stemming from Directive 1999/22/EC (relating to the keeping of wild animals in zoos), the Network aims to influence and encourage a change in priorities away from captivity, through a non-breeding and non-replacement policy, towards the protection of wild animals in their natural habitat.

India (Mumbai): ‘Ronnie’ and ‘Dannie’ Looking for New Homes

inda00011

 

Dear Dog lover

 

Both have similar stories and looks, making you wonder if they were twins(not identical) lost in a Mela aka Bollywood. But alas, both were abandoned in two different parts of Mumbai City. Ronnie was thrown out of a car at Cuffe Parade one evening and Danny was found abandoned near the Lokhandwala mangroves at Andheri.

 

Danny is a white hairy male, Corgi-ish short and has been sterilized and vaccinated against 7-in-one and rabies. He is very playful and sweet but does not like other dogs or children very much.

Ronnie on the other hand is much younger around less than a year. He is also white with a grayish path on his face. He is very loving and will do ‘namaste’ to you if you come to meet him. Ronnie is shorter than an average dog just like a Corgi. He too has been sterilised and vaccinated.

India: Meerut administration has unleashed shocking brutality on the stray dogs to protect & shield the ILLEGAL CATTLE SLAUGHTER HOUSES

inda0001

Please click on ‘pictures1’ link immediately below to view images.

Here’s proof that the Meerut administration has unleashed shocking brutality on the stray dogs in the area to protect & shield the ILLEGAL CATTLE SLAUGHTER HOUSES.

 

For the government of U.P. and its functionaries it seems like a perfect solution that people are venting out their anger by killing ALL and INNOCENT dogs. It suits the bureaucracy as it does not to bother the SLAUGHTER HOUSES and STOP the EVER FOURISHING TRADE OF Illegal CATTLE MEAT INDUSTRY in Meerut. 

 

Several misguided youth have also followed suit.

 

They are ostensibly ‘remedying’ the situation that led to death of two children in village Kazipur, Meerut, allegedly due to stray dog attacks. In fact, there is an illegal abattoir in village Kazipur, which is violating every possible norm – pollution control, animal waste disposal, etc. Apparently, 5000 animals, mainly cattle, INCLUDING COWS are slaughtered in the abattoir every day – and then, the animal parts that are not used, and blood, bones, etc., are all allowed to flow into an open nullah adjacent to the abattoir, that flows through village Kazipur and beyond.   The strays of the area feed on these animal remains as a consequence ; or attacked children who ventured too close to the nullah that is their food source.

 

THIS IS THE REAL CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM .

 

THE ADMINISTRATION TURNS A BLIND EYE TO THIS WHILE PEOPLE TAKE LAW IN THEIR HANDS.  PEOPLE ARE ENJOYING THE ACT OF KILLING DOGS AS AN ENTERTAINMENT FOR THEM (see pictures).

In any event, what has followed, and continues to unfold every single day, is murder, and cruelty beyond belief. They are caught, they are cornered, many have been viciously beaten to death. The dogs are caught in the most brutal manner possible, kept without food and water for 2 – 3 days until a sizeable number are ‘collected’, and then – mainly released into the forest, or surreptitiously put down or beaten to death 

 

AS NO LAW AND ORDER IS RESPECTED IN MEERUT anymore.

 

INCLUDING THE POLICE, D.M., MAYOR, or U.P. GOVERNMENT, no one is bothered to stop/ control people from taking the law in their hands and brutally slaughtering dogs using innovative methods, which also includes use of arms and weapons.

 

All this despite the SUPREME COURT of INDIA has put a STAY AGAINST ANY KIND OF KILLING OF DOGS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY.

series of photographs are attached, forwarded by Jeev Karuna Sanstha, Meerut. Some of them are 15 – 25 days old, and some as recent as 3 – 5 days. 

The Animal Welfare Board of India has written thrice to various functionaries within the administration. They have advised the administration regarding the correct method of controlling stray dog population. They have apprised them  as to the law – the PCA Act, the ABC Rules, etc. They have offered help and guidance, for setting up the requisite sterilization, immunization infrastructure within Meerut. Eventually, they have threatened legal action, but to no avail. 

 

  

PLEASE lets all write to them & Let them know that we know what is going on and we condemn the government and their functionaries for loosing the control over law and order in their state & one small city and for protecting an ILLEGAL SLAUGHTER HOUSE of CATTLE  :-

Bleak Day for Animals in Laboratories – MEPs IGNORE PUBLIC OPINION on Animal Welfare – Note: EU Elections: June 2009

ECEAE – The European Coalition to End Animal Experiments

News

Posted: 01/04/09

Bleak day for animals in laboratories

MEPs ignore public opinion on animal welfare

The ECEAE has reacted with dismay after Members of the Agriculture Parliamentary Committee today voted out measures that would have afforded greater protection to animals in laboratories.

 

Members of the European Parliament, heavily lobbied by the multi-billion pound animal research industry, have not only gone against public opinion but have undermined proposals originally put forward by the EU Commission to make major long over-due improvements in animal welfare during the revision of the 20 year old EU legislation governing animal experiments.

 

Claims made by Neil Parish MEP, the parliament’s draftsman of the proposals, that the directive will result in improved animal welfare and set the framework to allow the EU to move towards the goal of ending animal experimentation will mislead the public into believing that this is a great day for animals in laboratories.

 

The opposite is the case as the outcome of today’s vote will result in:

 

• the continued use of wild-caught monkeys and the weakening of a proposed ban on the use of great apes


severe and prolonged suffering


repeated re-use of the same animal


animals such as primates, cats and dogs to be used in experiments, even in principle, for trivial purposes


no requirement for official approval for experiments, and the suffering they cause, in the vast majority of cases

a highly secretive system

with little information for the public
