The SPCA has sold dogs that are so dangerous they have be euthanized by their purchasers

Here is one example we posted on just recently. This person will be a witness:

In 2002, when the SPCA was caught red-handed and exposed on TV for killing six nice dogs for space and then lying by saying they were killed for being aggressive, the SPCA had to do damage control...fast! It flew its resident cat expert, Nadine Gourkow, to England (on donator's money) and then it cobbled together a junk-science assessment test that purported to scientifically judge the aggression level in dogs and to make good matches between dogs and owners. Baloney! It was only the SPCA covering its butt so that it could go on killing for space, but now it had the backing of "science" to justify it.

We know of countless cases where the assessments have been used to kill nice dogs for space, and where they are not used at all and aggressive dogs are sold to unsuspecting people, some with small children.

Take the case we were told of today. Leo was a cross of some kind, only seven months old when sold to a very kind family who spent money and ten months trying to get him over his human aggression. After they purchased Leo, they didn't receive one follow-up phone call from the SPCA, and that is another lie the SPCA tells. When they took him in to the SPCA clinic to be neutered, he was so aggressive with the vet that she told them to "get their dog under control". When told that they had purchased him from them, no one offered any advice or showed any interest in his aggression.

When Leo attacked a friend without provocation, going for the face and causing several punctures, this kind family had the horror of having to euthanize him.

Is the SPCA honest in any way at all? Not that we can see.

Why doesn't someone ask Chortyk this? Why did they release Odie the Doberman? *LINK*

Doberman Rescue replies and offers more evidence of dishonesty
SPCA Director Bowen is very naive if she thinks she will change the BC SPCA
Max would have failed the current assessment
RSPCA test: No wonder the SPCA doesn't use it - it's too scientific and fair to dogs
The BCSPCA has stolen a great concept and corrupted it!
The day Cheech was saved was the day someone I know adopted a dog who had been returned to the SPCA because it had bitten two people in the few days
