As we previously reported,
In a lawsuit by rescuers against the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care & Control, the Court of Appeal unanimously ruled that California shelters cannot kill dogs rescue groups are willing to save “based upon its determination that the animal has a behavioral problem or is not adoptable or treatable.”
But now, Los Angeles County has petitioned the California Supreme Court for review. It is asking the state’s highest court to overturn that ruling by fear-mongering that unless it does so, dangerous dogs will “threaten [the] life, health, and safety of humans and fellow animals.”
It is a lie, as dangerous dogs are already exempt from rescue.
We will oppose their effort to kill more dogs like Bowie.
Stay tuned...
