If you are opposed to BSL, siezure and destruction of pets including, but certainly not limited to Akita’s, GSD’s, Ridgebacks and Staffordshire Bull Terriers -

Please email these 3 addresses:
cllr_kevin.humphreys@dublincity.ie
minister@environ.ie
johngormley@eircom.net

and voice your disgust on the situation of siezure and destruction of pets in Dublin Council estates, and ridiculous restrictions of 11 breeds of dog throughout the country.
Americans, Britains, whatever you are, please oppose this!

Also you can include something about the TERRIBLE state of animal welfare here. The small County of Wexford kills more dogs each year than the city of London, Scotland and Wales combined! Yes, a small place kills more dogs than a city and 2 whole countries combined!
The number of cats killed is unrecordable.

If You oppose, please email them. And to make this a question - what do you think of this?

Are you opposed?

Thanks.
Will we end up muzzling everything like the oppressed slave in this photo? -

meglin ! asked:


I love animals. Since I was little, I’ve made the decision to dedicate my life to them and improving their lives. Since volunteering at a local animal shelter, I’m completely disgusted by the things some people do to their animals. And because I live by the philosophy of ‘If you don’t like something, change it’: I have started asking myself: How can I change this madness?

One idea was working as an animal rights or an animal welfare lawyer. I know they exist. There are about 20 different fields they cover from bite victims, cruelty, animal custody issues, and so much more. I feel that I’d be able to be the voice for the animals and give them what they deserve.

My question is: Realistically, how good of a dream is this? What is it like being a lawyer? Is it boring? Will animal welfare lawyers make as much as regular lawyers?

I want to do something I enjoy while making a difference in the world. And, of course, I want to be successful woman and make a good living.

How can I prepare for this career while still in high school? What are some other careers if this one doesn’t seem good? What are your opinions? What can you tell me about the career?

If it makes a difference… I’m a 15 year old sophomore in Arizona, have a 4.1 GPA, volunteer at the United State’s 2nd largest animal shelter every Saturday as an adoptions counselor, and have been interested in law for a while. I just always consider it to be boring and I never thought that the fields would interest me… until I found that animal welfare law existed.

Thank you.
