Despite offers of assistance from PETA and other organizations, Iraqi officials continue to poison and shoot stray dogs in Baghdad. Many dogs are obviously social and can be seen in videos online wagging their tails and playing before being poisoned and shot to death. Please urge U.S. and Iraqi officials to immediately halt the cruel killing methods.
Your voice is desperately needed today to ensure action.

From CNN:
The shotgun blast rips into the stray dog's midsection, sending it tumbling over and over. Agonizing yelps echo through the streets as it tries to reach and bite at the gaping wound. Minutes later, the dog is dead.
A few miles away, a puppy eats a piece of poisoned meat. Its body starts to twitch and spasm as the toxins kick in. It dies within 15 minutes.
The two strays were among the thousands that roam the streets of Baghdad. Authorities have been killing them since November, trying to prevent the spread of disease and attacks on residents.
