"Suspicious" departure of
forty dogs . Highest
attention on the
administrative fates of the
district kennel of
Ponterosso
Assisi (PG) - A gathering of
signatures has been promoted
by ENPA [national Unit for
the Protection of Animals]*
and by the counselors of the
PD [Democratic Party]
Claudio Passeri e Claudia
Travicelli directed to the
citizens of Assisi, Bastia,
Bettona, Cannara and
Valfabbrica in order to ask
to the Mayor of Assisi ,in
the quality of leader of the
consortium which is
beneficiary of the services
from the district kennel of
Ponterosso, an order system
of regulations for the
foster cares which has to be
inspired by the circulars of
the Ministers for the Public
Health ,Veronesi (2001) and
Garavaglia (1993).The
gathering of signatures
takes clue because of the
projected departure of 40
dogs, 1/3 of those ones who
are currently in the
structure,a departure made
for some people of German
nationality ,to whom ASL [local
Sanitary estabilishment] gave
its positive opinion which
has been forwarded to the
Municipality of Assisi and
the Municipality asked to
the Mayors of other
municipalities and to the
Regional Service for Animal
Health ,their opinions .The
Mayor has received a demand
for a new urgent meeting
-from Bastia e Valfabbrica -
a meeting to discuss both on
the "widely spoken"
administration in the hands
of Pro Animale, and for the
foster of the 40 dogs,
whereas- before the election
days - the Mayor of Cannara
has deliberated negatively both
on the foster of the 40 dogs ,
and on the" widely spoken "administration
by Pro Animale. In the
gathering of signatures,
above all, they ask Ricci
make a decree which
contemplates,among its
irremovable points, - among
all the others- that the
foster has to be made only
to the person who's
personally interested into
it and that it has to be
limited to the physical
persons inhabitant in the
regional territory ,except
for exception to be
evaluated.More in general,the
decree should be inspired by
the circulars made by the
Minister for the Public
Health ,which are yet in act
and obligatory for the ASLs
,circular in which the
welfare of the stray dogs is
identified also within the
activities that drive their
foster and the pertinent
check/control(Veronesi) and
these circulars establish
principles born just to
avoid fosters that could put
the animals in a circuit of
trades,born to foster
animals only to the person
who's interested into and
that comes personally [to
the structure] and to
establish the highest
control on the guaranties of
good treatment that this
person provides. (Garavaglia)
