We petition Krabloonik owner, Dan Machean to use many online resources for finding homes for these sled dogs rather than shooting some of his dogs in the head.

Machean "said he will change the way he euthanizes old sled dogs or pups that are not healthy. For the last 30 years, his practice has been to shoot them in the head with a .22-caliber rifle and dump them in a pit filled with dog feces."

We petition Dan Machean to look for many
of the online resources which can also
provide him with many options of adopting out these dogs. There are
also many transportation services available within the rescue groups and
shelters that are used to move these
animals out of state for the purpose
of adoption.
We will leave our information in the comments box for you to be able to
contact us (rescuers, shelters, fosters,
transportation services, volunteers, etc..) to lend you our support in this
effort.

We thank the animal welfare and animal rights community for coming to you with
this problem and for you making the
decision to find homes for them rather
than killing them.
