Make the Olympics humane ! STOP Sochi City Hall Orders to kill Stray Dogs

Short before the Olympics will start which supposed to be he most expensive Olympics ever, the russian authorities of Sochi decided to eliminate as many stray dogs as possible.

They don't even kill them in a quick way, they simply poison them and the poor pooches have to suffer up to 1 hour to die. WHO in their right mind can do such a cruel an evil thing? How can these monsters sleep at night?

"Stray dogs are not uncommon in Sochi and the surrounding area, and many tend to gather near construction sites where they are likely to get food and shelter from workers. They have even been able to get inside the Olympic Park.

Sorokin's company operates in the Krasnodar region, which encompasses Sochi and the neighboring area. Sorokin refused to say how many dogs they kill a year, calling it "a commercial secret."

"His company is involved in what he described as the "catching and disposing" of dogs. Sorokin refused to specify whether they shoot or poison dogs or say where they take the carcasses."

"

Sochi city hall last year announced a contract "to catch and dispose" of stray dogs in Sochi but animal activists vehemently protested the move. Authorities pledged to give up the practice and build animal shelters for stray dogs instead.

Activists say there is no evidence that a shelter has been built. The city hall would not immediately respond to the AP's calls and emails seeking comment.

Shooting stray dogs has been common practice in a lot of Russian regions despite activists' efforts to push authorities for more humane ways of dealing with the issue.""

Excerps from Associated Press
