Read About Gas Chambers

Killing by gas is not "going to sleep." You don't believe it? Watch gassing being done in Yadkin County, N.C. The animal control agencies in N.C. argue that it is cheaper to kill by gas, which is a painful way to die, but then why is it that 63 of 100 N.C. counties only use injection instead of gas? Cost comparison studies done by the H.S.U.S., the ASPCA and euthanasia expert Doug Fakkema have proven over and over that the costs are roughly the same.

Gas Chamber Exploded Last Week with 10 dogs inside
Read about the Iredell County shelter explosion this morning. More. And more.The fact that the explosion occurred when no one was watching the process is more evidence that the AVMA protocols requiring the viewing of the process were being violated. This was a "new " chamber.

Carbon Monoxide Kills More than Pets Did you know that shelter workers can die from CO exposure because its affects are cumulative? Read about death of kennel worker Vernon Dove in Chattanooga, TN. Did you know that the E.P.A. and O.S.H.A. classify CO as a hazardous material due to its capabilty to explode and suffocate? NC animal shelter leak. Dogs and cats routinely survive gassing only to be frozen or burned alive. Read Gabby's story in Rushville, IN. Read Quentin's story in St. Louis, MO.Read Amazing Grace's story in Savannah, GA.

American Veterinary Medical Association Recommends Injection
Did you know that the A.V.M.A., H.S.U.S., A.S.P.C.A., A.H.A. all recommend injection as the "preferred" manner of euthanasia for dogs and cats and forbid its use altogether for puppies, kittens, the old and the sick but North Carolina violates ALL of the above?
