FACTS:
The Animals Protection Law nr.205 ("Monitorul Oficial" May 26th 2004 ) as well as Annexe no.1 specifie the conditions in which a dog should live in the owner'garden:
Each dog should have a fenced area in the owner'garden where he must have enough place to move around.It is forbidden to chain dogs and those must have assured plenty of water and enough food,as well as the others minimal decent conditions to have a content life.
The problem is that especially at countryside(but in town's area where houses with gardens!)almost all peoples are chaining their dogs FOR LIFETIME,because romanians have the concept that dog become more protective when he is kept in chain...and in this way,poor dog will better protect humans'property! ROLDA statistics shows that 98% houses in rural environment keep the dogs chained and more than 65% houses in towns are abusing in the same way dogs' rights to move freely .
There are dogs in Romania that are staying a lifetime in chain,some of them are dieing chained...A chained life it's not a real life!
What YOU can DO:
Report the cruelty case to the local police office.
Urge your local school, officials to take cruelty to animals seriously.
Support ROLDA Antichain Campaign!
ROLDA is asking YOU:
"Don't chain your best friend!"
