We at strongly show our loving support of our canine educator peers and dear friends working in India.

We are shocked the lack of compassion knowledge and empathy demonstrated by the Judges of the Indian Supreme Court.

This amounts to canine genocide!

They need to 🛑 STOP and listen to voices of expert practitioners who know and understand these dogs

Professionals and fellow dog lovers please share 💔🐾🐕
