Petition to remove pitbulls from June Wiggins (Hercules)

The Issue

This petition is for the removal of June Wiggins (Hercules) two pitbulls from her home/property in Brooklyn, NY.  These neglected and abused animals came to the attention of the public this past weekend when she left them outside with inadequate shelter during the blizzard..  According to neighbors and news reports, she leaves them outside with inadequate shelter, no socialization and only keeps them for "protection."  The two pitbulls are elderly and have spent most of their lives enduring the elements because June does not want them to "track dirt inside."  

This is a call to the NYPD, NYC Animal Care & Control and the ASPCA to work to remove the dogs from her.  This petition gives a voice to those of us who are horrified by this situation and demand these dogs be removed and a voice for poor dogs who have lived their lives neglected.  This is a demand for policy reform- stronger laws WITHOUT loopholes!  Please sign to give these dogs a voice.
