Petition to save Briarfields Animal Sanctuary

SIGN HERE

[T]he sanctuary is under threat of immediate shut down. Roscommon County Council have issued a 3 months closure notice on the grounds that the sanctuary has no planning permission and is a “nuisance” & “health hazard”. (Incidentally the sanctuary is on 7 acres of land, down a quiet by road, the nearest neighbours on either side are a quarter of a mile away & to the front are literally hundreds of acres of open bog.) No earlier complaints have been made.

Official statistics for 2005 show that almost 17,000 dogs were euthanised through local dog pounds, the vast majority of which were beautiful otherwise healthy creatures who just happened to be unwanted & surplus to requirements.
