Ban the tethering of animals- Help set them Free!

The Issue

HELP IS NEEDED TO SET THEM FREE!

The misery and suffering of horses and other animals including dogs that have been tethered continues to go unnoticed by the majority. The hours, days, weeks and even years of neglect and harm that occurs as a direct result of tethering an animal is inhumane and causes physical and psychological trauma to that animal. It should be illegal to leave a horse or a dog tied to a small spot outside in an exposed location usually without shelter, warmth, enough food and water. Entrapping an animal and leaving it to suffer and just survive is cruel. It is unnatural for the animal and causes them distress, and in particular, it goes against their natural instinct to find shelter, water, freedom or just relief from the situation. The condition and health of these animals is often apauling, and some of the wounds they incur from this practice are horrendous. People who feel the need to treat animals this way should not be in possession of the animal in the first place. In today’s society there is no need to intentionally neglect or endanger our animals this way. Some people will not be educated, so we have to stop them. We have to find a way to SET THEM FREE!
