Pictures and Words

You can read about the St Bernard Dog shootings here. If you do not know what happened I will be brief. St Bernard Parish police officers allegedly slaughtered 33 helpless dogs located in schools around St Bernard Parish. These dogs were left behind by their owners during Hurricane Katrina. The owners of these animals had no choice and I don't think I can stress this enough. They left notes written in black permanent sharpie begging people not to shoot their pets as they would return and rescue them or one of the animal rescue crews like Pasado's would rescue them and give them shelter. Many witnesses saw police officers shooting dogs in the streets. These defenseless animals were gunned down and not in any sort of humane way. They were shot in the torso which prolonged their suffering and some dogs were gunned down trying to escape. These were peoples pets. I am so hopeful Pasado's can get the photos they need to put these monsters behind bars. Their tortured corpses were found in schools by Pasado's volunteers and the case continues.

Thank you to the National Guard for taking care of the pets they could.
