Photos: Smederevo-GS in plastic bag-

Observation: Dogs face shows signs of beating,

Legs are bloody- more stained with blood.. Like when blood flows down the legs…

Photos: September 20. 2006., town Smederevo.

Before brutal death these dogs were kept in cramped place* in cages size 1, 5x1, 5meter,
30 dogs in one tiny cage. Without food and without water, on filthy and wet concrete floors.
Under “humane euthanasia”, officials imply use of T-61 which works as respiratory blockade -animals die by suffocation- (T-61= banned in many EU countries-
T 61>> CAS Type 1 Name 4,4'-methylenebis (N,N,N-trimethylcyclohexanaminium), diiodide, mixt. with 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl 4-(butylamino)benzoate monohydrochloride, N,N-dimethylformamide & N-(2-ethyl-2-(3-methoxyphenyl)butyl)-4-hydroxybutanamide. Chemical Synonyms T-61 Tanax CAS Registry No.66424-27-9 )
Methods of killings are always the same- brutal and inhumane. Wide use of various poisons like Nuvan,Kreozan are recorded.. Various methods of clubbing to death: by hack-picks, by head smashing onto the floor, hanging, etc,  .

These are pictures of "New strategy for stray animals” that Authorities propose.

Authorities have strategy that include 90% of animals to be killed, 10% to be sterilized, (and those same dogs may be firstly sterilized, and then killed, for city budget).
We are very ashamed for showing this dirty face of Serbia, but this is the truth. This is what Animals endure in Serbia every day, along with Animals people that care for Animals have to cope with all sorts of aggressions.
This is that dirty face of Serbian authorities. They only give nice empty promises and do nothing, while thinking that they have “better things to do” they did not have time to hear grate words of  Gandhi saying: "What ever you do to help will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it"
We are grateful to Mrs Vesna Arsenovic, and Mrs.Andjelka Jovanovic , for having strength to take these horrible photographs in Smederevo, on 20-th September 2006.
