	        |      100 sled dogs shot when B.C. tour business slows        http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/a...after-olympics   Quote:    
			
				WHISTLER, B.C.—An official of the SPCA in British Columbia says word of a slaughter of sled dogs in Whistler warrants a criminal investigation.   
Marcie Moriarty, general manager of the group’s cruelty investigations, says the description of the April 2010 incident is an “absolutely criminal code offence,” although there is no indication a police investigation is underway.   
Documents obtained by CKNW radio reveal about 100 healthy sled dogs were killed in a mass slaughter in Whistler last April 21 and 23.   
According to the WorkSafe B.C. documents, an employee of Outdoor Adventures Whistler has been compensated for post-traumatic stress disorder after being ordered to shoot the animals.   
The documents reveal bookings for dog sled tours collapsed after the Olympics and when the company could not find homes for its animals, it ordered the cull.   
Outdoor Adventures Whistler did not contest the details in the WorkSafe documents except to indicate that the injured worker claimed to have killed 70 dogs, but 100 were actually destroyed.   |       Seriously, WTF!!  
There are so many people out there that would help in the effort to place these dogs yet they just decide to put them all down. I want to see what the investigation shows.

			if they failed to find homes for the dogs, couldnt they have held some kinda charity and gather donations to continue housing these dogs?   
obviously i dont know the full story, or the extent of their effort (if any) to care for these dogs.   
but im definitely willing to donate some money to keep 100 dogs alive ;[

This is disgusting. As someone who's been involved in animal rescue on and off for a decade I can say surely that they didn't try very hard to find homes for these dogs as I have seen what dog rescues will do to mobilize if they're told 'these dogs will die if they aren't rehomed' and it's absolutely amazing how fast they can organize a railroad (different rescuers taking a few dogs each for different legs of the trip) to get animals across the country or even internationally to safety or to a rescue or what have you. Additionally I'm fairly certain someone would have given them funding to care for the animals until someone could take them.

			What I don't get is why they had to shoot the dogs too? Money issue? It would be much more humaine to at least put them to sleep with a vet.

Which should have been a red flag that they were doing something wrong.

" I phoned the guy, Kelly who  
did the shooting and he just  
laughed! He said he got paid  
well to do that and now gets  
to get compensation from the  
government!  
He said he was going to get  
laid off, because of a work  
shortage and they were actually  
asking for volunteers! Said it was  
as easy as shooting fish in a barrel!  
He actually is an idiot! Feel free  
to call him.Not sure of his address  
but he is on the north side of ..........  
around ........a yellow rancher  
house with a veranda...  
His number is: 604............... Kelly "

			This is an utterly disgusting act. Like yeah I get the point that your not making money anymore but couldn't you have just sent these dogs somewhere else where they would be a use for someone say like up in Alaska or something? Like fuck, I have no sympathy for him at ALL. I hope he goes to jail n dies from the ass raping he gets. :@  Posted via RS Mobile     |

			This sick fuck also had to slit their throats in some cases and or chase them down after only wounding them.    
This kelly guy is in for a shitstorm once more people find out where he lives and what he looks like.

			I think posting this Kelly guy's information was completely the wrong thing to do.    
No matter what his attitude was to killing the dogs and being "compensated for PTSD", he didn't deserve to have his personal information put out there. He may be a flippant douche according to that forum post, but hes still a person.    
There are some truly unbalanced people out there and sometimes all they need is (what they believe is) an excuse to go over the edge and hurt someone. This is a human being who may be in serious danger.

			I have no sympathy for the shooter, his information should be spread across the internet to make him suffer in retribution for the suffering he caused innocent animals. The person had the option to refuse his boss's instructions, but he chose to carry them out and now he WILL suffer the consequences one way or another.    
The execution of the animals occurred only seven weeks post winter Olympics and only five weeks post special Olympics, which leads me to believe they made no effort to adopt out the animals since the final tourists were only just departing at that point.

			a dog can potentially serve humans, such as "seeing eye dogs" for blind people, police dogs trained to sniff out drugs and track down criminals and find missing people. dogs also make for a very loyal and friendly pet/companion.   
cows stand there and eat grass.   
please dont interpret what i said as not caring for cows, because i think killing all animals for no reason is bad. but alot of cows are raised with the intention of milking or killing for beef and other things. dogs are not.
