By this law they also<br \/>\nwant to prohibit feeding abandoned animals on public domain and to make<br \/>\nmore strict rules for adopting an animal. So in our dear country (who is<br \/>\nclaiming to be an european contry) 90% from the stray dogs live between<br \/>\npeople in the residential districts so\u2026. there are people who loves<br \/>\ndogs and give them food . I know dogs in my neighborhood  so old\u2026they<br \/>\nhad spent their all life infront of some block of flats and they hadn\u2019t<br \/>\nbitten anyone\u2026..and they don\u2019t let us to give them food anymore?<br \/>\nThey<br \/>\nare complainig that many people have been bitten\u2026a dog never bites<br \/>\nwithout reason\u2026..and our children can\u2019t play in park because nobody<br \/>\ncleans after all this dogs\u2026\u2026i really don\u2019t want to ask them how they<br \/>\nspent the money from the taxes that i\u2019ve been paying them for a long<br \/>\ntime!!!!\u2026.this is politics\u2026<\/div>\n<div>The idea is that we could use some help\u2026because they had already<br \/>\nkilled thousands of stray dogs a few years ago\u2026and this will happen in<br \/>\nthe future too if nobody does something.<br \/>\nI am just a person who loves<br \/>\ndogs i don\u2019t have the power to stop them but i am thinking that maybe<br \/>\nsameone who can will read this or will see news at tv and that person<br \/>\nwill do something.<br \/>\nThe dogs don\u2019t have any fault\u2026make the one who has pay for that.<\/div>\n<div>There has been a <strong>harsh campaign against stray dogs<\/strong><br \/>\nby the media. Since some members of the Bucharest ASL issued statements<br \/>\nadvocating the reinstatement of the law that permitted the killing of<br \/>\nstrays, the newspapers and the TV have been incessantly showing images<br \/>\nof packs of strays and those people bitten throughout the country. In<br \/>\nreality, the law has formally prohibited the killing of strays since<br \/>\n2007, but the <strong>municipalities have skirted the problem by leaving the dogs, in thousands of public facilities <\/strong><strong>spread throughout the country, to simply die of hunger and disease. The law has only prevented large scale killings<\/strong>, such as<\/div>\n<div>those seen before 2007, when strays were killed en masse even in the<br \/>\nstreets, thanks to the absence of an animal protection law. Since no<\/div>\n<div>sterilization plan has been made, the number of dogs has increased exponentially in the meantime and now the <strong>public is asking that drastic <\/strong><strong>measures be taken<\/strong>.<\/div>\n<div>The climate of recent weeks <strong>brings us back to 2001<\/strong> when the then mayor of Bucharest, Basescu, launched the campaign that led to the <strong>extermination of at least 100,000 stray dogs<\/strong> in the capital alone. STD is extremely worried and fears that the municipalities where it operates will exploit the <strong>atmosphere of hysteria and intolerance crafted by the media<\/strong> to undermine our sterilization programs.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/s287.photobucket.com\/albums\/ll160\/advocatefordogs\/?action=view&amp;current=1111111.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong> <\/strong><br \/>\n<\/a><br \/>\n<strong> <\/strong><strong>Please join me at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.msplinks.com\/MDFodHRwOi8vYml0Lmx5L2FUUDhWVg==\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: maroon;font-size: medium\">Friendburst<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.friendburst.com\/advocateforsavingdogs\/\" target=\"_ blank\">Advocate for Saving Dogs\u2122<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.friendburst.com\/Animal_Rights\/\/\" target=\"_ blank\">Animal Rights<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.friendburst.com\/WeAreAllConnected\/\" target=\"blank&quot;\">\u2665We\u2665Are\u2665All\u2665Connected\u2665<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.friendburst.com\/WolfWarrior\/\">Wolfen Warriors<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.friendburst.com\/blog\/18273\/advocate-saving-dogs-list-blogs\/\"> Click Here For A Complete List Of Blogs By AfSD\u2122<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Posted By: AfSD\u2122(ADVOCATE FOR SAVING DOGS\u2122) STOP GENOCIDE OF STRAY DOGS IN ROMANIA!
