FROZEN DOGS: How Many Animals Will Freeze to Death Tonight? *PIC*

Tonight .. Clear. Windy. Low minus 8. Windchill minus 15. And that's just Vancouver. Prince George: Tonight .. Clear. Low minus 33.

How many dogs, unable to get out of the freezing wind, will die helplessly on the ends of their chains while the SPCA says that it cannot prevent the keeping of dogs this way because it is "reasonable and generally accepted practice of animal management"? (PCA Act, Section 24 (2))

It also claims that the Act does not permit it to seize dogs kept like the one below for the same reason. When will BC SPCA CEO Craig Daniell do what he has said the SPCA is doing, and seize for social/psychological suffering?

"The message is clear - if you are inflicting cruelty to animals, including psychological and emotional abuse, you will be charged."
That statement was made by Craig Daniell in the BC SPCA's Fall Animal Sense magazine.

We still have not heard that the SPCA has actually seized an animal for psychological and emotional abuse, but we hear every day about the freezing, lonely, dirty, and cruelly isolated dogs that the SPCA is ignoring.
