Mass sled dog killing probed in B.C.

Source: CBC News

British Columbia SPCA officers headed to Whistler Monday to investigate claims that 100 healthy sled dogs owned by a tourism operator were slaughtered.

The allegations are contained in a filing to WorkSafeBC, the provincial workers' compensation board.

According to a release from Outdoor Adventures Whistler, an employee of a company called Howling Dogs was compensated for post-traumatic stress after shooting 100 dogs in April 2010.

Outdoor Adventures Whistler acknowledges it had a financial stake in Howling Dogs at the time of the cull, but didn't take operational control of the company until May 2010.

Whistler is in Canada. She didn't have anything to do with it.

Canada. Doesn't matter.

It has to be relevant.

So it becomes relevant by incorporating it.

Huskeys are a breed so friendly to people. they deserve to be protected.

Corporations AGAIN creating a horrific situation & then claiming NO fault. :puke:

Motherfuckers.

:argh: people like that need to be culled from the gene pool.

I ran into a guy at the local dog park with three rescued sled dogs, they were so sweet and beautiful (even if my small BC mix wasn't so keene on all their barking).

It takes someone with zero compassion, virtually DEAD walking to do something like this. Bless the rescue groups that save the ones they do.

If someone says "go kill a hundred healthy dogs" and you do (and do so by slitting their throats after you run out of bullets), you're sub-human. The corporation is also at-fault, but the employee deserves every inch of his PTSD.
