I just spoke to my best friend who lives in San Pedro. The Town Council has implemented a policy to start poisoning the stray dogs with strychnine. They advised her to keep her own dogs tied up at night. Besides being worried about my friends beloved pets, I am sickened at the thought of my favorite beach dogs dying a horrible painful death to strychnine. Apparently Bron,the local vet, had an agreement with the Town Council that she would do her share to help by spaying and neutering the stray dogs, but despite her efforts, they have decided to use this inhumane form of euthanasia. I love San Pedro and the dogs are such an integral part of the local color. Certainly there has to be other regular visitors who would be upset about these practices. Is there anything we can do to stop this? They were to start the poisoning last Wednesday so there have probably been some casualties already. Hopefully is wasn't your favorite beach dog
