Outrageous WA Law
Posted by Gian on November 4th, 2007
It is not illegal to kill a pet in the state of Washington if it is done humanely. This is ridiculous. I can understand if an animal is suffering and your vet euthanizes them, but an owner can, presumably, take their pets into the woods and shoot them? This is outrageous! Who determines if the manor of death is humane? So, if a pet owner is tired of their pet and they decide to “humanely” kill them, this is okay? Shouldn’t there be a VERY good reason to allow for this? We have a responsibility to treat our pets with love and respect, not dispensable! This really is disturbing.
