CARTA MODELO/SAMPLE LETTER

(Copiala y pegala en un nuevo mensaje)

 

Dear Ambassadors of the Philippines ,

I am writing to you to express my strong concerns about the dog meat trade in

the Philippines. I commend your government for instituting national legislation

banning the dog meat trade, but I understand that stronger laws and increased

enforcement are needed to put a final end to this cruel practice.

 

I was horrified to learn from Global Action Network that dogs destined for

slaughter in Baguio are transported under such appalling conditions that up to

50% of them die en-route, while the survivors have their throats cut while still

conscious.

 

I urge you to do all within your power to encourage your government to further

its efforts to eliminate the dog meat trade completely. As a compassionate

traveller, I choose tourism destinations that are committed to treating animals

humanely. Only when the dog meat trade has been ended, will I consider

travelling to the Philippines.

 

Yours Sincerely,

 

FIRMA:

Estimados embajadores de Filipinas,

 

Les estoy escribiendo para expresar mi profunda preocupacion por el comercio

de carne de perro en las Filipinas.

Elogio a su gobierno por instituir la legislación nacional que prohíbe el

comercio de carne del perro, pero entiendo que leyes más fuertes y el

incremento de su aplicación son necesarios para poner fin a esta práctica

cruel.

 

Me horrorizó saber por Global Action Network que los perros destinados para la

matanza en Baguio son transportados bajo tales aterradoras condiciones que

hasta el hasta 50% de ellos mueren en el camino, mientras que a los

sobrevivientes se les cortan la garganta mientras que aún estan conscientes.

Le impulso a hacer todo lo que esté en su poder paa animar a su gobierno a

aumentar sus esfuerzos para eliminar el comercio de carne de perro

definitivamente. Como viajero compasivo, elijo los destinos turisticos que están

preocupados en tratar a los animales humanamente. Solamente cuando se haya

terminado el comercio de la carne de perro, consideraré viajar a las Filipinas.

Atentamente

Network for Animals

 

PLEASE HELP ME END TERRIBLE CRUELTY

TO ANIMALS IN THE PHILIPPINES

 

Let me explain why I am asking for your assistance at this time.

 

You see, NETWORK for ANIMALS is tasked with enforcing laws outlawing the

slaughter of dogs for human consumption in the Philippines. As you progress

through this web site you will see what we have accomplished so far.

 

What has become clear, however, is that new, strongly punitive laws are

needed.

 

Continuing our unrelenting effort to end appalling suffering we have proposed

to the Senate Agricultural Committee an amendment to The Philippine Animal

Welfare Act.

 

This amendment includes sharply increased fines and jail terms for convicted

offenders and, crucially, mandates the confiscation by the government of

vehicles used to transport the dogs.

If these vital new laws are passed, first in committee and then by parliament,

it will crush the economic viability of an evil business.

 

But we have run into a political roadblock. Our friends in Manila tell me that

we must generate an outcry in support of our proposals both internationally and

within the Philippines, before legislators will act.

 

Generating a massive outpouring of criticism of the weak laws that currently

lead to the continuance of one of the most brutal of animal cruelties needs the

support of people like you. Individuals who, like me, look at the pictures of

suffering animals and really feel their pain.

 

In another life, as founder of the International Fund for Animal Welfare, I

took on the seemingly impossible challenge of ending the annual clubbing of

tens-of-thousands of white coated, nursing baby seals in Canada. It took

nineteen years but with good and kind people like you by my side we did it. I

promise to give the same commitment to the dogs of the Philippines for all the

years I have left to me.

 

For the sake of dogs that shudder with a terrible fear as they await their

turn for death in illegal slaughterhouses, I am begging you to support this

crusade against cruelty by making a donation at this time. As well, to

demonstrate growing international outrage, please email our

message<http://www.networkforanimals.org/protest.htm> to the Philippine

ambassadors included in this web site.

P.S. What would be hugely helpful in the context of forward planning for our

international campaign of awareness of this issue would be a small monthly

donation<http://www.networkforanimals.org/donate.htm> to NETWORK for ANIMALS via

a Standing Order. Two or three pounds or more if you can afford it would really

help.
