ENGLISH VERSION: Because there are only 2 or 3 animal shelters in Bosnia & Herzegovina, the government sets in hunters to shoot these dogs. For every tail they bring in, the hunters will receive new bullets. Often the dogs are left behind, half dead and heavily mutilated, to die a slow and painful death. In case of the puppies, the tails are cut off alive, to spare bullets.......By radio people are informed at what time the hunters will make their appearance the next morning, so that people know why they hear gunshots. Daily, the amount of dogs and cats shot is registered and the numbers are shocking: in only 3 months, over 500 dogs and 300 cats have been the victims of these cruel and bizar methods. The animals are left for garbage where people and children can see them lying by the side of the road. Most of the animals find a slow death in a most horrific way, because they were not killed, but just wounded. If a mother dog is found with her pups, just the mother is killed. This saves bullets, since the pups will die anyway without their mother. Let�s give a voice to these animals, because this can no longer go on in silence. Bosnia.............is forgotten country, where refugee camps are still full and poverty still present. We care about the animals in this country. If we don't do it, who will............. Lets make this world a bit better place!!!! *Please note that by entering your name & e-mail and clicking on Sign Petition button your voice has been proceed.No other actions are necessary!

BOSNIAN VERSION: Upravo zbog cinjenice da u Bosni & Hercegovini postoji nesluzbeno 2 ili 3 azila za nezbrinjene zivotinje,vlada unajmljuje lovce na divljaci da ubijaju ulicne pse. Za svaki odsjeceni rep ubijenog ulicnog psa koji se donese na uvid, lovci dobijaju nove metke. Vrlo cesto ovi psi su ostavljeni napola ubijeni tesko izranjavani da umiru u sporoj i bolnoj patnji. U slucajevima malih kucica, repovi im se sjeku dok su zivi kako bi se ustedjelo na mecima.......Putem radija stanovnici pojedinih gradova se prvo informisu o vremenskom periodu akcija kada ce se lovci poceti pojavljivati narednog jutra tako da znaju zbog cega se cuju pucnji lovackih pusaka. Dnevna brojka registrovanih ubijenih pasa i macaka je sokirajuca: za samo 3 mjeseca preko 500 pasa i 300 macaka je postalo zrtvama ove nehumane i bizarne metode. Ubijene ili izranjavane zivotinje se ostavljaju na smecu ili na ulicama gdje ih prolaznici kao i djeca mogu vidjeti kako leze u lokvama krvi. Smrt po vecinu ovih zivotinja dolazi polako na najjadniji nacin jer ih je vecina samo izranjavana a ne ubijena. Ako se pronadje zenka sa malim kucicima, samo se ona ubije. Na ovaj nacin se sacuvaju metci jer ce kucici svakako uginuti bez njihove majke. Mi dajemo glas ovim zivotinjama jer se ovo vise nemoze desavati u tisini. Bosna ........ jedna zaboravljena zemlja gdje su izbjeglicki kampovi puni i siromastvo jos uvijek prisutno. Mi brinemo o �ivotinjama u ovoj zemlji. Ukoliko mi to ne uradimo, ko ce................ Hajde da zajedno napravimo svijet boljim mjestom za sve nas!!!!! *Molimo Vas da nakon sto unesete Vase ime & e-mail i kliknete na dugme "Petition" Vas glas ce biti unesen.Slobodno igorisite sve ostale zahtijeve web stranice! U slucaju da zelite provjeriti da li je Vase ime uneseno u bazu ili ne, idite na "Signatures" iznad teksta nase peticije. DUTCH VERSION: Omdat er maar 2 tot 3 dierenasielen in Bosnië Hercegovina zijn zet de overheid jagers in om de zwerfhonden af te schieten. Voor iedere staart die de jagers inleveren krijgen ze een nieuwe kogel. Vaak worden de honden halfdood en ernstig verwond achtergelaten waar ze een langzame en pijnlijke dood sterven. De staarten van puppies worden levend afgesneden omdat dit de kogel bespaard. Via de radio wordt men gewaarschuwd op welke tijden de jagers aan het 'werk' zijn zodat men voorbereid is op geweerschoten. Er is een dagelijkse registratie van de afgeschoten zwerfhonden en -katten en deze getallen zijn schokkend. In 3 maanden tijd zijn er meer dan 500 honden en 300 katten slachtoffer geworden van deze wrede en inhumane werkwijze. De zwerfdieren worden als afval achtergelaten zodat volwassenen en kinderen ze gewoon zien liggen aan de kant van de weg. Meestal is het een langzame en zeer pijnlijke dood omdat ze niet ernstig genoeg verwond zijn om direct te overlijden. Als een moederhond bij haar nest wordt gevonden dan wordt alleen zij doodgemaakt omdat dit kogels bespaard, de puppies zonder zullen hulp van de moeder sowiezo overlijden. Zij lijden en sterven in stilte. Laat ons hen een stem geven zodat zij niet langer in stilte lijden. Bosnië is een vergeten land waar nog steeds volle vluchtenlingenkampen zijn en waar armoede heerst. Wij geven om de dieren in dit land, als wij dit niet doen, wie doet het dan wel *Het invullen van uw naam en email en het klikken op de "teken petitie" knop is voldoende om uw stem te laten horen.

The reach of this petition has grown significantly beyond my initial expectations. I am encouraged by the collective concern for these animals because it confirms that their suffering is no longer being ignored by the international community.

The campaign is approaching one thousand signatures as more people learn of the cruelty occurring in Bosnia and Herzegovina. This milestone will provide necessary evidence for our appeal to government officials. Please forward this petition to others so we can demonstrate the scale of international concern.

Please find a way to re-home these dogs and do not kill them in the way that you are doing. Sometimes you are leaving defenceless puppies without their mothers and they die and sometimes you are shooting the animals and leaving them to die an agonising and slow death. Please grow a heart and find another more humane way of dealing with your stray dog problem. Killing all the dogs is not the answer!

This cruel practice must stop. The government ought not to encourage hunters to go out and kill these dogs. The way to stop having strays is to spay and neuter them so they don't reproduce.This abuse is for to vicious. Not to have stray dogs is something any government has to work on shooting them down is not the solution!!!

This country must never be allowed to join the EU! We don't want barbaric, cruel behaviour such as this in the EU. The government are endorsing it, most EU countries would find this horrific. Keep their vile government and their vile people who do this out. Completely horrific extreme cruelty for just being a dumb dog. Shame on you, they have a right to be on this earth too. Want to do something about it? NEUTER!!!! Is it so bloody hard!

In Bosnia, it is currently better and much easier to be a war criminal than a stray dog.It is better to be a killer, rapist, pedophile, abuser… Even if you are all this together, the corrupt levels of government will still treat you better and in a more humane way than a stray dog: poor, unprotected, abused and left in cold.

GOD-willing, very soon the very best and enforceable animal welfare laws and regulations shall become prevalent throughout the world. May GOD-ALMIGHTY save animals from the horrors of human induced abuse, cruelty, torture, neglect, and habitat destruction.
