Petition text:
We, concerned citizens of animal welfare, call on Davidson County to ban the use of gas chambers in the Davidson County Animal shelter.
This practice has been banned by the state in the use of this method for executions for convicted killers; why should it be used on domestic animals?
The gas chamber is inhumane and ensures a horrible death for the animals, and this community should not allow this to take place.
If euthanasia is last result, it should be done intravenously, offering the animal a peaceful, dignified, and painless death.
The Sheriff's Department needs to be taken out of the shelter, and someone needs to be in charge who has the animals' best interests as a top priority. Prevention and adoption needs to be focused on so that one day euthanasia can be a thing of the past.
