Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)

The Cold Truth About Man’s Best Friend.

SAV Comment:

For years, maybe decades; animal welfare people and groups have been trying everything to stop the Iditarod sled race.  Major sponsors have been targetted in their hundreds with e mail campaigns etc. 

Always the same response – that everything is ok and that all the dogs are looked after very well.  Well maybe this new movie will blow the lid off this race and the world will see what we have campaigned about for years.  A cruel race with untold amounts of animals suffering

It will be interesting, after this is made public; to see what the response of the ‘no problems’ corporate sponsorship organisations are.  Will they stop sponsorship or will they continue ? – will the race continue ?
