I used to support the RSPCA, in fact my wife used to help out at the weekend many years ago. Then I heard that they had destroyed 10 healthy German Shepherd’s with a captive bolt gun dragging each one out of its kennel and killing it in front of the others . This is a terrible cruel way to kill any healthy animal and pushing a metal rod in the brain of the dog after the bolt gun is used to make sure the poor creature is dead. It’s known as pithing and the operator of such a device needs to be correctly trained in how to use. The U.K. German Shepherd rescue had offered to take these animal but were refused. Since I heard about this I started looking into reviews and found out they have a dreadful reputation in the U.K. For reasons stated above I will never support such an organisation and there are plenty of accounts of this organisation that have harassed vets, lawyers and former employees resulting in one lady taking her own life.
