**********************************
The stray dog population is something normal in citizens life being a very old reality since decades. The massive demolitions during the communist regime, from the 80's generated stray dogs population increase and except massive extermination, nobody in Romania took action to settle a sterilization program based on human and decent methods of caching, selection, tagging, neutering and releasing the stray dogs.
Our proposal:
Please help us to:
- convince the local authorities to manage this problem in a human way, respecting international standards, laws and conventions that Romania signed to become part of European Union in 2007,
- stop the slaughter of the animals,
- make the authorities to understand the importance of respecting animal and human rights, according with international regulations,
- convince the authorities that the solution offered by local and international NGO’s in this issue is a solution based an scientific research, the only solution that can solve the problem.
We do believe that Romania cannot be integrated in European Union if we cannot deal with this problem in a fair way and we are rushing to start a real massacre instead of finding a decent solution.
THANK YOU! |
