In AUSTRALIA, a New South Wales local-council caught taking unwanted dogs to the local tip, shooting them in the head and throwing their bodies on to piles of rubbish is under investigation by the RSPCA.

The photo attached shows dead dogs allegedly shot by Gloucester Shire Council rangers.

Gloucester Shire Council went into damage control after its so-called euthanasia practices were revealed by a local pensioner, who witnessed the shootings late last month.

"I was gut-wrenched, just totally shocked," the pensioner said yesterday. "I was up at the tip and the ranger came in with these dogs on board."I watched this bloke drive down the back,
I heard the 'pop, pop, pop, pop' of him shooting the dogs, then he drove over to the general waste and just threw them straight off the back of his ute on to the household rubbish.

"Sickening photos show 11 dead dogs, including five puppies, lying unburied on piles of garbage.

Gloucester Mayor Geoff Slack is the person ultimately responsible for this.

Geoff is quoted on the council website as saying, -
"I was elected to Council in April 2004 and to date i have enjoyed the experience."

Here are his contact details if any leakers wish to share their thoughts on the above -
