Serbia: ‘Lizi’ – Rescued After 2 Days On The Road After Being Hit by a Car – Her Story (and Donation Link).

This is the story about Lizi (Njanja).

Lizi on the road as she was found

Milan Calic, who is running the shelter “Riska”, traveled to the south of Serbia and on the road found a dog, who was hit by the car. He found out that the dog was lying there for 2 days. Of course, Milan took the dog to shelter “Riska”. 

At the vets waiting for treatment

We have found the donor for her operation. DVM Jugoslav Vasic operated both legs, but he insisted that there is no need to  X-ray her spine. 

Unfortunately, not even 15 days after the surgery, could she stand on her own. We consulted the other vet DVM Milan Matic. X-ray was taken and we found out that the spine was hurt and that she is pregnant. DVM Milan Matic said, he can operate the spine but he needs a MR. MR was taken under the anesthesia. During that, an accident occurred and Lizi was without oxygen longer period of time and she got blind.

Then she was sterilized and 10 days after her spine was operated. Unfortunately, our Lizi, who is now blind, can’t stand on her back legs. Also her muscles atrophied. We are taking her again tomorrow on X-ray.

Post treatment

What more can I say. She eats very well and she is full of optimism. It would be great if we could find someone, who would take care of her because I believe, that with the right treatment and perhaps a wheel chair, she could walk again. 

She has a chip and she is vaccinated against rabies.

Kind regards,

Canada: Whistler Sled Dogs Update – SPCA Unearths 52 Dogs From Mass Grave.

SPCA unearths 52 dogs from mass grave

Date: Sunday May. 8, 2011 5:27 PM PT

The B.C. SPCA said Sunday it has new evidence to forward to Crown council for possible animal cruelty charges against the Whistler, B.C. tour company that shot and killed more than 100 healthy sled dogs in April last year.

So far, animal welfare agents have dug up the remains of 52 of more than 100 animals buried in a mass grave near the popular ski resort city.

The agency believes exhuming the grave should be completed by Tuesday.

More than 50 of the bodies have been sent away for necropsies, but results will not be available for several weeks.

Marcie Moriarty of the SPCA said the agency is pursuing Criminal Code charges for causing unnecessary pain and suffering to an animal. If found guilty, the person responsible could face up to five years behind bars.

“Throats have been cut and the animal bled out. That is not an acceptable way to kill an animal in Canada,” she said.

“If the animal was bludgeoned to death and didn’t die instantly from a shot to the head for example. If multiple gunshot wounds and the science could show the first shot didn’t kill the animal, all of those could be examples.”

The SPCA estimates the investigation could cost up to $225,000. The provincial government has committed $100,000, while the rest will come from donations to the non-profit agency.

Moriarty says the hefty price tag is justified.

“This is absolutely worth it to speak for animals in B.C. We’re an enforcement agency, we don’t get to pick and choose what case we do,” she told CTV News on Sunday.

SPCA members are being helped by a team of forensic experts from across North America, including some of whom who aided in the investigation of serial killer Robert Pickton.

The initial dig was severely slowed because of debris covering the ground, said forensic anthropologist Dr. Bill Hagland.

“We started out first couple of days as just moving hundreds of wooden boxes, dog house boxes. This is just a big dumping area for the work that these people do with the sled dogs tour group company.”

Hagland said workers will begin working on their hands and knees with more delicate instruments once the remaining bodies are exposed.

“They’re dead but they’re going to have a story to tell us,” he said. “I’m here to help the dogs.”

Moriarty said the animals will get a proper burial after the investigation is complete.

News of the gruesome cull surfaced earlier this winter after workers’ compensation documents were leaked to the media. The documents outlined a claim by a worker who said he was experiencing post-traumatic stress after killing the dogs.

The animals were under the control of a Howling Dog Tours. Another firm called Outdoor Adventures had a stake in the company when the cull took place, but insists it had no idea about what had happened.

In his claim, Robert Fawcell said he shot or slit the throats of at least 70 dogs in “execution-style killings” over the course of two days, at the end of a slow sledding season. In some cases, Fawcett stood on the animals with one foot to shoot them. Several that didn’t die from the gunshots were stabbed multiple times.

Following a public outcry, the B.C. government appointed a task force to review the local dogsled industry. The task force published 10 recommendations last month, which include boosting penalties for animal cruelty, instituting standards for the sled-dog industry and increasing funding for B.C.’s SPCA by $100,000.

Premier Christy Clark endorsed the report’s recommendations after it was released and pledged to enact what she called the toughest animal cruelty legislation in the country.

Clark said the province will increase the maximum penalty in animal cruelty cases to a $75,000 fine, 24 months in jail, or both. The current law allows for a maximum fine of $10,000 and a maximum jail sentence of six months. The changes will also extend the current six-month statute of limitations in such cases.

Uk: **Uk Residents ONLY ** – David Cameron MP – Uk Prime Minister – Is He Now Going to U Turn on His Green Government Promise and Betray British Wildlife ?? – Petition To Sign Please.

The ‘Green’ Animal Welfare Betrayer ? ! ?

– David Cameron MP – will this pro-hunt Prime Minister (Uk) who promised to run ‘the greenest government ever’ now do yet another U turn and be the biggest wildlife criminal the Uk has seen ?

On Monday, it was revealed that the government might scrap vital laws which protect wildlife and the countryside and help stop climate change. Hardliners have branded the rules ‘red tape’ and say they could be scrapped within months. [1]

We need to work together to make sure our wildlife, our countryside and our planet are protected.

In the past, David Cameron has made headlines promising to run “the greenest government ever”. [2] We need to convince him that scrapping these laws would be a disaster for his reputation. A huge petition will prove to Cameron that he can’t afford to break his green promises.

*** UK RESIDENTS ONLY ***

Please take 30 seconds to speak up for legal protection for wildlife and the environment:

http://www.38degrees.org.uk/


Among the laws under threat are the Climate Change Act and the Wildlife and Countryside Act. These aren’t little-known laws that no one cares about. The Wildlife and Countryside Act protects wild birds, their nests and eggs, and makes sure that national parks and marine reserves are protected. The UK’s Climate Change Act was a world first which helps make sure we reduce our emissions. [3]

We know that when we work together we can make sure the government doesn’t get away with plans which could hurt the environment. When they decided to try to sell off our forests, over half a million of us got together and convinced them to drop their plans. [4]

The government says it is “consulting” before scrapping these laws – so let’s give them a consultation response they can’t ignore! Please help make sure we have a huge petition telling the government to keep laws which protect our wildlife and our environment.

Sign the petition to send a powerful message to David Cameron and the government:

*** UK RESIDENTS ONLY ***

http://www.38degrees.org.uk/

Thanks for being involved,

Hannah, David, Johnny, Charlotte and the 38 Degrees Team
 

PS: The laws under threat in the government’s “red tape challenge” include the Climate Change Act, National Parks Act, Clean Air Act and the Wildlife and Countryside Act. Do these sound like “red tape” to you? Please add your name and tell the government that protecting our countryside and our planet should be a priority: http://www.38degrees.org.uk/dont-scrap-environment-laws

Civilized people everywhere are disgusted, horrified, outraged by the treatment of stray animals in Greece. This problem is ongoing and pervasive and it’s apparent that Greek officials have no intention of doing anything about it. I’ll NEVER visit Greece again and have informed all my animal loving friends and family about the unconscionable, inhumane abuse of animals in Greece, the cradle of uncivilized cruelty! (zelda)

And finally  – Protest in London about Romanian strays:

Dear Friends,

On Thursday 26th May we plan to hold a protest in London close to the Romanian Embassy and also walk along to the Romanian Consulate Office , both located in Kensington.  This is long over-due given the fact that most other Western European  and Northern European have already held large and effective protests against the proposed change in the law which would allow the Romanian authorities to systematically massacre hundred of thousands of street and shelter dogs…. all in the name of money allowing corrupt businesses to get very rich on the back of slaughter!

The vote to bring on whether to bring in this law has been postponed several times already largely due to the pressure from the animal loving International community and from those within Romania itself.

Kendra and myself have quickly put together the website below specifically for this event.  On here you will find information being updated constantly, links to FB, Twitter, Blogs etc. There are also car sharing opportunities listed if you’re not based in/around London.

http://afra.moonfruit.com/

PLEASE join us, this really could be our last chance to take a stand!  If enough people turn out on the day it will send a message LOUD AND CLEAR that mass illegal killings of this kind will not be tolerated.  Although those in power in Romania care little for animals they DO care about their image and standing in Europe and so will definitely take note!!.  We have to hold the protest on a week day to avoid the Consulate and the Embassy being closed.  We are working in conjunction with the police and they have helped us establish a meeting place, a route etc.  We’ve also been granted permission to deliver by hand any petitions directly to the Embassy.

If you really can’t attend, we ask you to kindly crosspost, forward and share this email to any and all animal loving friends, family and colleagues.

Adopted ‘Rommies’ would be most welcome on the day so please bring them along… they will make perfect mascots and ambassadors for their fellow dogs at risk back home!

Warmest wishes

– zbog  izrade nezakonitih podzakonskih akata  i davanja Skupstini grada na usvajanje kao da su zakoniti   u sta je Skupstina grada  vec tri  puta poverovala ,

-zbog postupanja po nezakonitim opstinskim odlukama od Sl list grada 63/2003 i 33/2008,  cime je omogucila  nezakonito  trosenje  novca iz gradskog budzeta , cime je        omogucila sticanje protivpravne dobiti  firmi JKP `Cistoca i zelenilo`  u kojoj radi njen suprug i  privatnoj firmi VS `Veterinar` vlasnika  g. Grge Tikvickog , svog kucnog prijatelja i partijskog kolege .

 

Dajuci  izjave medijima , g.Dulic Suzana ,clan Gradskog veca za komunalne delatnosti i zastitu zivotne sredine , namerno  je oklevetala organizaciju Prijatelj  koja koristi adresu organizacije EPAR , tako da su njene klevete pogodile obe organizacije , i organizaciju Prijatelj i organizaciju  EPAR-OIPA Srbija,  lazuci javnosti da je zbrinjavanje napustenih pasa hobi   udruzenja gradjana Prijatelj  , dok je istina  da je   zbog nezakonitog postupanja grada prema gradjanima, javnom novcu- preko 60 miliona dinara ,  i  napustenim psima  (Odfluka Ustavnog suda  Sl gl RS 9/2010), drustvo Prijatelj  bilo primorano da  2004. godine  registruje prihvatiliste  i vrsi zbrinjavanje ovih zivotinja,  jer  grad  do 3.5.2006.  nije imao  objekat ,a od tada ima samo za privremeni smestaj u kojem ih  ubija sto je u suprotnosti sa zakonom i predstavlja krivicno delo koje je grad  cinio  sve do juna 2010. godine  po nezakonitim opstinskim odlukama  ciji je  odgovorni autor g.Suzana Dulic i g.Matilda Seker  , i  Suzana Dulic  je odgovorna   za postupanje po nezakonitim podzakonskim aktima   ( Odluka Ustavnog suda  Sl gl RS 9/2010 )a  grad  je postupao , a  i dalje postupa  nezakonito ,jer  je ubijao najmanje  1x nedeljno , i  jer i sada ubija najmanje 1x mesecno pse i macke  , dok je njihovo ubijanje u Srbiji zabranjeno ( Zakljucak Ustavnog suda IU 27/2010 ) ,  a istovremeno grad odvaja  za finansiranje nezakonito obavljenih poslova  :

 

4,2 miliona dinara, plus x dinara -2004

5,2 miliona,plus  5,8 miliona, plus 15 miliona, plus xx dinara – 2009. godine

4,2 miliona,plus  x dinara – 2010.

 

Uvereni smo da  je grad  kupio  i vozni park  zoohigijenskoj sluzbi , kao i jos   neke sume koje treba da sadrzi Analitika odobrenih sredstava  za poslove hvatanja i unistavanja pasa i macaka lutalica ( nakon sto im se obratio Ustavni sud , 2008. su licemerno samo promenili terminologiju , a sustina je ostala ista  sto je Ustavni sud  konstatovao i osudio  –  rec unistavnje, zamenili su  recju zbrinjavanje ),  za koje moraju postojati stvarni racuni .

 

.Dozvoljen nacin kontrole brojnosti populacije pasa i macaka je : sterilizacija .

 

Ova  dugogodisnja krivicna dela  gospodje Suzane Dulic i saradnika  , omogucena  njihovim sluzbenim polozajem u gradskoj upravi ,su indukovala  ponasanje  novog zastupnika Prijatelj-epar  (  28.10.2010. je promenjen zastupnik na nezakonit nacin ) , koji je i sam na mesto zastupnika  dosao  na nezakonit nacin ,  i to nakon  sastanka sa g.Suzanom Dulic i sardanika   tj. nakon laznih obecanja datih od strane Suzane Dulic  i saradnika  i  koja je  grubo  izmanipulisala gospodju Branku Bojanin  dajuci joj uslovljena obecanja koja zatim nije ispostovala nego je prevarila  g.Branku Bojanin i novo rukovodstvo Prijatelj-epar.

 

Na ovaj nacin  stvarajuci laznu sliku , Suzana Dulic svesno i sa namerom blati ugled nevladinog sektora , u ovom slucaju je  potpuno izblatila organizaciju Prijatelj, koja  8 godina obavlja poslove  za koje grad daje pare   firmi u kojoj je zaposlen suprug gospodje Suzane Dulic :JKP`Cistoca i zelenilo` i davao je  450 000 dinara mesecno za poslove hvatanja i unistavanja pasa i macaka lutalica  i onda kada je toj firmi  Resenjem republicke veterinarske inspekcije  od 2.9.2004. do 3.5.2006. bio zabranjen rad na ovim poslovima .

 

Takodje  g.Suzana Dulic krsi ljudska prava , postupa u suprotnosti sa nalozima Zakona protiv diskriminacije  nezakonitim podzakonskim aktima -opstinskim odlukama  i ignorisanjem  ljudi koji  godinama  bezuspesno zahtevaju zakonito postupanje gradske uprave,g. Suzana Dulic i g. Matilda Seker   odrzavaju  situaciju u kojoj  pojedinci bivaju eksploatisani  , a drugi  istovremeno sticu protivpravnu dobit  ,

 eksploatacija  nastaje zbog uverenja da  se prema zivotinjama ima postupati zakonito u interesu gradjana i zivotinja , dok pomenuta lica nipodastavaju  , omalovazavaju i  ignorisu  tudj   licni novac koji je  ulozen za  dosadasnjih  8 godina zbrinjavanja napustenih pasa u legalnom prihvatilistu ,  dajuci javnosti lazne informacije da ce   `grad zakonito postupati ` –  a grad   bio gonjen cak  i od Ustavnog suda – jos uvek bezuspesno   , i da ce  grad  uzeti pse   u  cije zbrinjavanje do danas je ulozen  ogroman licni novac gradjana  za koji ovi gradjani imaju racune , i 4500 eura  a potom jos 1000 eura  od OIPA  organizacije  u prvim godinama  izgradnje  prihvatilista , i to je novac koji  g.Dulic  Suzana  i sar  ima nameru  nedozvoljeno prisvojiti  tj s njim   nedozvoljeno raspolagati , a  zna da  grad nema ni  inicijalne uslove  za zakonito postupanje prema napustenim psima i mackama   i  da ih nikada nije imao ,  i zna da   javnosti  svesno i s namerom :  govori lazi .

 

Prilazemo- vidi atachment , jedan od  brojnih clanaka , slicni su  u svim srbijanskim  medijima,  koji su preneli  klevete i lazne informacije javnosti  kojima g. Suzana Dulic  zeli da zastiti  svoj  i svjih bliskih saradnika :dugogodisnji nezakonit rad  utemeljen na  lazima radi pribavljanja protipravne  dobiti  jednoj javnoj- u kojoj radi njen  suprug ,  i jednoj privatnoj firme  , a  sumnjamo da ni njoj  nije  sve ovo `dzabe`, ali za  to  trenutno  mi nemamo direktne dokaze stoga  iznosimo samo  svoju sumnju, a na organima je da  ovu sumnju  provere  uporedjivanjem  zakonitih prihoda i  materijalnog statusa ove gospodje  .

 Rukovodstvo Drustva  Prijatelj  koje je vodilo ovu organizaciju do 28.10.2010. i koje je izgradilo  ovo prihvatiliste , obracalo se od 2003. godine  gradskoj vlasti svake godine  veliki broj puta – i bilo je primorano , ne iz hobija ,nego iz nuzde  da zastiti gradjane i zivotinje  izgradnjom i legalizacijom prihvatilista koje  grad zbog aktivnosti g.Suzane Dulic, Matilde Seker , Koledin Dobrivoja, Vlade Dragina  i danas  nipodastava , premda  je ova organizacija  ustvari  bila primorana  od 2003. godine obavljati poslove grada  o licnom trosku pojedinaca , i legalizovati prihvatiliste  dok je gradski novac  koji je  izdvajan za ove potrebe gradjana  ,bio zloupotrebljavan godinama  kao i danas.

 

Prilozicemo  u pisarnicu OJT Subotica  kopije svih  relevantnih dokumenata ,  od ogromnog broja  dokazne  dokumentacije,  za sve svoje navode u ovoj prijavi  i po potrebi prikazati ih javnosti ,  ako javnost bude zainteresovana , jer  ova dokumentacija nije tajna .

EU: International Call For the EU to Introduce an 8 Hour Maximum Journey Time for All Animals in Transport – Petition Link and Paper Copy to Download.

Link:   http://www.8hours.eu/8hours_en

As someone who has personally been involved with live animal transport investigations for the last 22 years, as well as:

  • making presentations to the Uk Agriculture Ministry regarding horse export investigations
  • being the author of over 20 formal complaints to the EU Legal Affairs team in Brussels regarding live animal (calf and sheep) transport investigations,
  • being the author of a recent investigation report into the calf export trade from Ireland to mainland Europe, undertaken as a combined series of investigations by european animal welfare groups,

it can be clearly said that I personally have a real hatred of witnessing animals being transported for hours and hours packed inside livestock transporters.

Part of the title of my most recent report for the EU, which was produced last August, simply said “Time for Change“.  Now, more than ever, it is time for change within the EU regarding transport times for live animals.

COVER

I ask you please to put your name to the campaign which is being presented here by Christa and Dan which calls for a maximum duration of 8 hours for all livestock being transported within the EU.

I am informed from my very helpful contacts at the EU Legal Affairs team in Brussels, that all of our investigation work and public support for reduced transportation hours are very much being listened to.  You can help us add even more weight to this call by adding your name to the campaign for 8 hours maximum.

Link:   http://www.8hours.eu/8hours_en

The link below provides access to a paper copy of the petition which is being run for this campaign.  By accessing this you can print off paper copies as required and get all your friends and family to support the call.

Link for paper copy of petition –  just access and print off your copies !       8 Hours Petition

Completed forms can be sent to Animals’ Angels e.V. in Germany – the full address is provided at the bottom of the form as per the example sheet above.  Completed forms need to be sent to Germany by end of August 2011.  The forms, as well as the online petition (link above) will then be presented to the competent political boards of the EU in September.

Now is the time for major changes to EU live animal transport legislation throughout Europe – please add your support to this.

Thank You.
