Animal Control Shoots
Dog in Williamsburg, KY; Public Speaks Out
BY HEATHER DAVIS / NASHVILLE PAW MAGAZINE
There is public outcry after ?a shocking chain of events in
Williamsburg, KY last week. ?Local business owners had been feeding a
friendly stray dog – a Great Pyrenees they’d named Bugsy – and decided
it would be best to call animal control so officials could find a home
for the sweet pooch. What happened, however, was horrifying. The animal
control officer, instead, drove up and shot the dog, killing it. Had
the locals known the dog’s fate, they would have taken rescue measures
into their own hands, and are now speaking out against a system gone
wrong.
Read the full news story here.
Middle Tennesee’s own Big
Fluffy Dog Rescue has stepped up by writing a formal complaint
letter and starting a petition for the city to take action against the
officer. You can make your voice heard by signing
the petition here.
