I am appealing to all animal lovers to support this petition. This
outrageous incident occurred in Guangdong, China. A helpless dog was tied to
the back of a truck and dragged on the streets for miles. It all happened in
broad daylight, in front of other drivers and pedestrians. But the perpetrator
couldn’t care less, driving around town like nothing was wrong.
What possible explanation could there be for such an outrageous
behavior? What did that dog ever do to deserve this cruel fate? Sadly, after
being dragged for miles, this innocent dog succumbed to his harrowing injuries
and died. What is even more outrageous is the fact that the perpetrator was
booked, but only handed a warning for causing a scene in public, before being
let go. This is all the punishment this monster is ever going to receive for
his truly sick deeds. This is what the life of a dog is worth in China:
absolutely nothing.
Sadly, without any animal welfare laws in place, none of the
millions of animals that are abused each year in China will get justice and
attackers will get to walk scot-free. This must be changed, such behavior is
outrageous and inhumane. A society that aspires to be modern and civilized
cannot, under any circumstances, allow such actions to unfold.
We, the undersigned, call upon the Beijing government to adopt the
much-needed animal rights laws and confer protection to all the animals in
China. There is too much abuse going on – these voiceless souls have seen it
all, from being boiled alive for their meat, dragged behind cars, trucks or
motorbikes, pounded with sticks and shovels or skinned alive for entertainment.
Such monstrosities must be stopped as soon as possible!
Please support animal rights in China – sign and share this campaign
now. In addition, please avoid purchasing products made in China until our
demands are taken into consideration.
