Hi,
On September 13, 2010, a British Citizen named Mr.Nathan Kershaw came
to Friendicoes SECA and informed the rescue team that some sort of
government vehicle was picking up dogs from around the Akshardham
temple. Even small pups were being picked up and mercilessly thrown
into the van. He managed to save two of the dogs and got them to
Friendicoes. These dogs were 3-4 months old. Now, per the laws of
India, the only dogs to be picked up are grown up dogs for neutering /
spaying purposes. So why was this van picking up 3-4 months and
younger pups?
When I sent an email to Nathan he replied with the following:
“…..These 2 young dogs, brother and sister who are completely
harmless being caught around the neck and scared more than anything
else. I stopped it from happening and took them to friendicoe’s….”
Mr. Nathan
Best, Smita
