Election In Victoria

[vicdrg]

If you are from Victoria and you believe the current pound and animal welfare system is wrong please go to the vicdrg page and look at the information on the threads and in Notes and write or telephone the premier, minister, opposition leader, opposition minister and particularly your local politician.

This isn't about what group you are in or with whom you are friends but purely about trying to get some changes. We were successful last election in getting community fostercare networks written into the Domestic Animals Act and being allowed to have Section 84ys.

Change, however incremental, is possible if people speak and write.

If we had the right to take pound animals we would not have examples such as what is happening in Mildura, with everything grace and favour of a manager above pound level who has a pretty horrible track record.

It is all power games with rescue groups being used.

Speak up so that rescue groups operate WITH the pounds and councils, not FOR them.
