BREAKING NEWS: Daniel's Law Passes First Hurdle In Pennsylvania

DANIEL’S LAW (SB 1329) unanimously passed the Pennsylvania Senate Agriculture & Rural Affairs Committee today and now it is now on to the full Senate!

Daniel’s law would stop the gassing of dogs and cats as a form of euthanasia in Pennsylvania. It is still legal in over 30 states. State Senator Andy Dinniman is leading the charge.

The law is named after a Beagle Mix that survived being gassed at a Alabama Shelter earlier this Fall. The shelter staff couldn’t bear gassing him again and reached out for an adopter. That’s when Eleventh Hour Rescue in Morris County, New Jersey stepped in.

Pilot’s ‘n’ Paws flew Daniel up to New Jersey and Eleventh Hour Rescue found a great home for him with dog lover, Joe Dwyer and his family.

“Today’s important first step to pass Daniel’s law in Pennsylvania brought great joy to so many, including Daniel himself who howled in celebration when I told him the news.” said Joe Dwyer, “We must continue on to finalize the Law in Pennsylvania and then take on the rest of our country!”

As Senator Dinniman said this morning, “On to the Senate!”

Thank God there is some humanity left in the world. Gassing animals is the most barbaric inhumane thing we can possibley do to a defenseless companion pet.
