Animal "Protection" League

Animal Protection ????? League

Here are the contact emails for the leaders of JCAPL, the Johnston County Animal "Protection" League. This group supports Sue Sternberg temperament testing, which they brought to the Johnston County shelter in Smithfield to decide which dogs die. It could be a poodle or a cocker spaniel, but if it is too "snippy" it is going to the gas chamber.  Dogs and cats are like people, sometimes you're just not having a good day. I imagine they are stressed out, being in such a horrible place, sensing death all around them.  Or maybe they just don't like to have a plastic hand forced in their face.  Do they deserve the death penalty for that?

According to the Smithfield Herald's recent article, the JCAPL is involved in making decisions at the county shelter!  This shelter sells animals to research (also in the news), and kills most animals in the GAS CHAMBER.
