Oh, no! Gaston County Animal shelter is a high volume kill shelter that still uses inhumane gas chambers!
North Carolina Gas Chamber Workshop with Live Victims – VIDEO For the Love of the Dog
It failed a state inspection just a year ago.
Lost animals getting killed within 24 hrs in violation of NCGS 130A-192, because, according to the vet who "euthanized" it, "it was old and skinny and blind." Apparently Gaston County Animal Control does not believe that pet owners have a right to have their lost pet returned to them if it is "old" or "skinny" or "blind." Animals are refused to be held overnight even though rescue groups agreed to pick it up the next day...The failed inspection stated that the disposition paperwork on the animals, which is required by state law to be created and preserved, was either incomplete or nonexistent. Either broken or no food or water bowls was common.
