In Response To: Vancouver to adopt a Minimum Standard of Care for Dogs *LINK* ()

In 2001, AAS asked Vancouver to adopt the bylaws and to go further - to ban the keeping of dogs in yards. We offered our report "IT'S TIME!" at a presentation to Mayor and Council. The report contained all the research and expert opinion on why permitting "yard dogs" is not only inhumane, but a public danger. The report documented many examples of suffering dogs in Vancouver.

Read the report and the dogs's stories here....

Vancouver to adopt a Minimum Standard of Care for Dogs *LINK*
The SPCA fought these bylaws for years *LINK*

The City's response?
It only took four years for Vancouver to do the right thing for dogs in spite of SPCA interference and lack of action *LINK*
The City's other dodge was to say it was up to the SPCA to deal with this *LINK*
This is one of the reasons so many people became disenchanted with the SPCA
