Justice for Isabelle

 Please like the page - this is our friend Gavin Povey's pet .. awful story (see below)!
JUSTICE FOR ISABELLE:
https://www.facebook.com/justiceforisabelle

and please sign the petition, share and spread the word:
http://www.change.org/petitions/the-irish-government-regulate-hunting

(Gavin says: "Thanks for all your kind returns - please go to 'Justice for Isabelle' on Facebook and add your support if you wish. My daughter Kayleigh is running this page and will be raising a petition to ban the use of dogs for killing other animals. I will pursue this in the courts if possible and also raise interest with the local TD's (politician's for my friends abroad). There is an issue of public safety to address. The dogs were not leashed, nor muzzled, and there was only one member of the hunt with a whip and a hooter, trying to control the dogs.")

01 Dec 2013:
Yesterday, at around 4pm, our beautiful little dog, Isabelle was savaged and mutilated to death in our garden by a pack of approx. 20 hounds. These dogs were part of a hunt organised by The Bray Harriers. Isabelle was out playing in the garden when utter chaos ensued.

This pack of out of control dogs trespassed on our property and chased this small dog, until they caught her and savaged her to d
eath. They entered through our front gate along with horses and their riders, who followed to try to bring these dogs under some form of control. Some riders dismounted, leaving horses to roam around our garden unaccompanied.

This shocking and catastrophic event has left our family devastated. We were not informed that this hunt was taking place. Local Gardaí reported to us that they were not aware that this hunt was taking place. The Bray Harriers website also did not inform anyone that this hunt was due to take place in Ashford. Instead, it says 'Sat 30th Nov TBC'.

This shocking and barbaric sport needs to be strictly regulated. These blood thirsty hounds were out of control and were allowed to roam freely past houses with families, young children and pets. Laws need to be changed so this is never allowed to happen again.

Are we going to wait until a child or adult is hurt and injured while these blood thirsty hounds hunt for their prey?

Sorry won’t bring Isabelle back, but with your support we hope that her death won’t be in vain.
