UPDATE TO THE Undercover video footage that reveals inmate workers at the Sumner County Animal Shelter in Tennessee were lifting dogs into the air by the skin on their necks and dangling them in front of veterinarian William Baber, who illegally jabbed them in their hearts through the chest wall with a long needle. With NO anesthesia.
HE HAD HIS LICENSE SUSPENDED 12/13 for only 4 months, AND HIS OFFICE IS CLOSED.
BUT.......................
MORE GOOD NEWS EVERYONE, THE VET HAS BEEN CHARGED WITH 12 DIFFERENT COUNTS....... HE WAS PICKED UP AND TAKEN TO JAIL YESTERDAY. YEAAAAAAA !!! WE ARE ALL JUMPING UP AND DOWN. THE D.A. DID WHAT HE WAS SUPPOSED TO DO. HE DID IT RIGHT. FELONY AND CRUELTY CHARGES ARE AMONG THE CHARGES TOO. THIS WILL MAKE ALL VETS IN THIS STATE TAKE STOCK OF HOW THEY ARE TREATING ANIMALS NOW. MOST ARE PRETTY GOOD, BUT THERE ARE STILL SOME WHO NEED TO GET THIS MESSAGE LOUD AND CLEAR.
We need this petition to show the prosecutors that citizens all over America will not tolerate this kind of cruelty to animals, EVER.
Help stop cruelty in all Animal shelters in Tennessee. So please continue to pass this along to family and friends who care about animals. Some Vets don't place the same importance on shelter dogs. Dr. Baber stated that in his court hearing. It is as if they have a Gold Star on their foreheads the minute they arrive. Scheduled for execution unless the owner comes to rescue them or a new parent adopts them. In many cases the word "shelter" is a misnomer, "what shelter does it provide" we have to ask. A cage to sit and wait for death? They are better off on the street than in there. This State needs to get the picture that other states have gotten, CLEAN UP THE PUPPY MILLS, and spay and neuter mobile clinics are desperately needed. That is the long term answer.
Thank you, from all the animals who must die. At least it is now humane, and a vet is doing this "free" for the County, and this man is getting exactly what he deserves.
thanks everyone.
