Target: British Columbia, Canada Attorney General Niki Sharma
Goal: Ensure full prosecution of individual(s) reportedly responsible for dragging a dog behind a vehicle, causing severe injuries.
A young collie mix named Sunny was reportedly tethered to a vehicle and dragged about 200 meters, resulting in severe injuries. The dog allegedly suffered abrasions to his front and back paw pads, shredded nails, and is significantly underweight with a body score of two out of nine. This disturbing incident has raised serious concerns about animal welfare and the enforcement of cruelty prevention laws.
Sunny was rescued by the BC SPCA and taken to a veterinary clinic for assessment and treatment. The apparent severity of his injuries suggests prolonged suffering, and it is unclear whether he will be put up for adoption. The BC SPCA has stated they will recommend charges under the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act against those reportedly responsible.
This alarming case underscores the urgent need for strict enforcement of animal cruelty laws to deter such heinous acts. Ensuring that the individual(s) reportedly responsible are fully prosecuted will send a strong message that animal abuse will not be tolerated. Demand that authorities take decisive legal action to protect innocent animals like Sunny and prevent future cruelty.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Attorney General Niki Sharma,
I am writing to express deep concern over the reported case of severe animal cruelty involving a young collie mix named Sunny. According to reports, Sunny was tethered to a vehicle and dragged approximately 200 meters, resulting in serious injuries including abrasions to his paw pads and shredded nails. Such a disturbing act of cruelty is unacceptable and demands immediate attention.
Sunny is currently under the care of the BC SPCA, recovering from his injuries. The severity of his condition highlights the immense suffering he has endured. The BC SPCA has indicated they will recommend charges under the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, emphasizing the need for justice in this case.
We urge your office to ensure that the individual(s) reportedly responsible for this heinous act are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Taking decisive legal action will demonstrate a commitment to justice, deter future acts of animal cruelty, and protect vulnerable animals from harm. Please act to ensure that justice is served for Sunny and to uphold the standards of animal welfare in our community.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

I always say in these circumstances that I would like to do the same for the person responsible for such abuse,meaning I would gladly take the abuser/driver for a nice ride-with him or her behind the vehicle.
You are saying exactly what I’m thinking.An eye for an eye. Animal abusers should be punished the same way they make suffer the animal(s). Jail is not enough.
Drag this pos monster behind a very fast moving vehicle, see how it feels!! Poor dog, may he heal and recover soon.
