We are asking you to ask the Dairy Farmers of Ontario, and all Farmers of the world, to end the cruel and inhumane practise of using Electric Shock Bars over dairy cows backs which SHOCK the dairy cow every time the cow naturally humps her back to urinate or poo.  At the same time, we are asking you to release the cows tail restraints so that she may swish flies and/or itches.  We believe these practises amount to "cruel and unusual punishment" of the innocent cows who have never done anyone any harm.  We also believe these heinous torture tools do not add to product quality and are solely for the convenience of the farmer, allowing you to spend less time cleaning behind your cows and thus allowing you to have more cows to treat this miserable way.

"Water boarding" has been banned in Guantanamo -- it is time that these torturous crimes against the defenceless dairy cows of Ontario, Canada, and all countries practising such crimes is ended as well!

The cows deserve better, the consumers deserve better, and You the farmer deserve SUCH A BETTER nights sleep knowing that you are doing "RIGHT" for your cows. You and I know your cows have done their best for you!

Until such time that these wrongs against the dairy cows of Ontario, Canada, and the world are righted WE, the consumers PROMISE to do everything in our power to reduce our Milk and other dairy product consumption..... "Pinky Swear"

We the undersigned are asking you the Dairy Farmers of Ontario (DFO) to immediately  disconnect and remove the "Shock Bars"and "Tail Restraints" from your "Tie Stall" dairy cow barns in Ontario Canada.  We find your practice of shocking dairy cows to keep them from naturally humping their back to Urinate and Poo totally unacceptable.  In our opinion the practice of restraining the dairy cows tail so that she cannot naturally "swish" an itch or flies amounts to "cruel and unusual punishment", Quite like tying a humans hands and putting them in a fly infested environment. We understand that the "sole reason" for these "Barbaric" practices is the convenience of the Farmer and these practices do not contribute in any positive way to the welfare of the cows or the milk quality. This type of "torture" would NOT even be allowed in Guantanamo, you must end it NOW! Your ending these practices would require very little time an NO capital cost.  Until you do end these practices, we the consumers of your milk products PROMISE  to do everything we can to reduce our milk consumption.


Thank you for listening, ending these barbaric practices, and doing so in a timely fashion.

Utterly (or udderly!) unacceptable! Humans who do, and condone, such things are despicable creatures who deserve treatment (payback) FAR worse than even this horrid misery they are inflicting upon the poor cows. How low can the human race stoop? Obviously, VERY.

Cette pétition devrait être pour tous les pays du monde, qui reproduisent cette forme cruelle d'élevage.

Est la pratique consistant à lier les queues des vaches laitières et choquants quand ils bosse naturellement leur dos pour faire pipi caca et acceptable pour vous?
