Dear Romanian Members of the European Parliament, Tortured, beaten, killed dogs, horses beaten in the streets and fairs till mutilation, cadavers in the street edges, the camps of the town hall - these are images that characterize your Romania when we mention the animals. Romania is well known all over the Europe by the cruel treatment applied to the animals and especially to street dogs. Hundreds of thousands of street dogs have been killed in whole Romania at a cost of tens of millions of Euros. If killing worked the stray dog populations of Romania’s towns would have been eliminated long ago. The result of the extermination campaigns: ZERO. And you want again to adopt these CRIMINAL amendments!!!!!!!!! Catch & Kill programme have become one of the biggest business for the Romanian municipalities and for the people involved in managing stray dogs. Easy profits from killing dogs: “THE STREET DOG BUSINESS”. The problem of surplus dogs must be solved logically in an effective and civilised way. Control of reproduction, combined with education in responsible dog ownership, is the only practical solution: free NEUTERING AND RETURNING of all dogs, with and without owners, to the territory where they were found or to their owner or keeper. ‘Neuter & Return’ is the only practical, cheap and permanent solution. The Romanian authorities will achieve nothing for as long as they address only the symptoms, rather than the causes, of the problem. We urge you to VOTE FOR THE LEGISLATIVE PROJECT PL No. 912 – NEUTER & RETURN ALL DOGS AND CATS with or without owners!
