Centro Canino dogs to be taken from their refuge - for the fourth time
A Palma judge has ruled that our dogs must be removed AGAIN from the Centro Canino within 5 days, even though another judge had ruled they must stay! This will be fourth time in four years and the news is devastating.
Our latest video on the issue can be seen here
Even though we disagree with the ruling, and it breaks our hearts, we are forced to comply with it.
Therefore, on Thursday, 15th of April we must take our dogs away from the refuge, the only place many of them have ever felt safe and loved.
We feel totally let down by our politicians and judicial system that allow hundreds of cases of animal cruelty to go unpunished, but clamp down on a respected animal protection charity which has been rescuing and rehoming literally thousands of abandoned animals for more than 40 years with zero cost to public funds.
We have suffered constant harassment on the part of Palma Council which has shown little interest in the work of the many volunteers and supporters who struggle tirelessly to improve animal welfare. Perhaps it is too much to expect even a smidgen of sensitivity and compassion amidst the shameful political corruption scandals rocking the community.
Only one thing appears to matter – money.
We have informed Dña Begoña Sanchez, Regidora de Sanidad of Palma Council and Dña Rosa Llinás that we are to take legal action, because a sound reading, carried out by the “Patrulla Verde” police from a private home and NOT the Centro Canino Internacional, was used in the court case. (Crazy)
In addition, with all respect to the judge, we cannot understand why she has accepted our request for an independent sound reading while ordering the removal of our dogs, meaning of course, that there will no longer be any dogs at the refuge when the sound reading is carried out! (Unbelievable). One has to wonder if the outcome has already been decided.
In the meantime, foster homes and permanent homes are urgently needed.
We will keep you all informed about what action we will be taking, and about up and coming events. We cannot sit back and do nothing. We must save the animals and their beautiful refuge!
