Spain: stop the torture of galgos dogs!

To the Spanish Government:

As citizens from around the world, we strongly urge you to end the cruel practice of dog hunting. Spain is the only country in the EU that still allows this horrible industry, and due to the lack of regulation, it results in the unimaginable suffering of thousands of dogs each year.

Spain: stop the torture of galgos dogs!
Every year, Spanish hunters murder thousands of dogs -- beating them, burning them, dragged them behind cars, skinning them alive -- as a "traditional punishment" for a bad hunting season.

Many of them die in the "piano dance", a disgusting ritual where the dogs are hung from their necks with their paws barely touching the ground.

Spain's the only country in the EU that still allows dog hunting, and could decide soon to end it. But animal rights aren't a priority -- so we need to turn it into one, by dragging this horrific torture into the spotlight.

Add your name to the petition below and share with animal lovers everywhere -- when we get a million signers, Avaaz will run opinion polls, ads, and an advocacy blitz to make sure the torture stops!
