Chaining dogs should be illegal, simply because it is inhumane and a threat to the safety of the confined dog, other animals and humans! They get lonely and crave for human affection while exposed to extreme weather conditions. Pictured below are chained dogs that I have encountered in the County of Anderson, South Carolina long before I knew anything about animal rescue, laws or that I could possibly change it. All I knew was, these were innocent animals and they deserved so much more than a life on a chain.
What can we do to protect animals from either being chained or kept in a small chain link fence with no shelter??
