I believe that it's cruel to allow easy access to this pesticides that cause death to our beautiful animals

Our dogs become our family instantly and we lose them to stupid pesticides that should be controlled and not harmful

Our dogs are humans too...

There are pet and child friendly pesticides available. Every company should be forced to use them. If a safer option is out there it does not make sense and is not ethical to continue to use products that threaten the lives of people's loved ones, that includes their pets.

I believe our animals are an extension of our family and we want to keep them safe just as we would any member of our family. and that is by all means. using pesticides have a huge impact on our animals as well as humans too

(Johannesburg, 2017-06-19)

i am against pet poisoning

(johannesburg, 2017-06-19)

#109

Animals have feelings too. More often than not people tend to overlook the fact that pets are family too simply because we're not of the same species. I say, they eat, drink, breathe, love and hurt just as we do.

(Johannesburg, 2017-06-19)

#116

This is a worthy cause!!

(Port Elizabeth, 2017-06-19)

#120

Because no one needs a reason to protect defenseless animals... It's awful that some ugly has to happen before anyone stands up and acts up. Come on people; do the right thing!

(Johannesburg, 2017-06-19)

#121

I lost my 1st dog as a result of someone poisoning him. I cannot verify that it was pesticide but if others are losing pets and children as a result of it then there needs to be some sort of intervention.

(Johannesburg, 2017-06-19)

#122

This is unacceptable and needs to come to end. I fully support and stand by this initiative.
Something needs to be done

I am an animal lover and an animal rights activist.

(Johannesburg, 2017-06-19)

#132

The author of this petition has made compelling facts about the nature of pesticides and the possible harm and danger it poses in plain sight of animals and babies. A safe alternative should most definitely be manufactured and replace the current harmful products that are so readily available. The question is not is it a possibility because it most definitely is, the question is how many more petitions and life threatening situations must be brought forward before change is demanded and implemented.

Because my dogs come before everything else.

(Johannesburg, 2017-06-19)

When I was a child in wanted to be a vet because I truly loved firstly dogs amongst other furry creatures. I didn't become a vet for a number of reasons but I never stopped loving them nor did I stop wanting to help. This is me just doing my small part..

What happened to Xena happened to my mum's pit bull , Brooklyn. Her senseless death devastated us and my mum has not been able to even get another dog. Dying from poison is excruciating. There are so many options for humans but not enough for our fur babies. Dogs and humans are both capable of emotions and experiencing trauma and pain. Difference is that we can speak, so it is our job to represent their best interests and pesticides are not in their best interests. Let's work together to make earth a better place for all!

I know how it feels to lose a puppy, been there twice.

(Johannesburg, 2017-06-19)

#173

I have a crossbreed that looks similar to Xena. My heart aches for her. I would never want the same to happen to my fur baby. Behind this 100%!

I am a proud mummy of 5 Persians. It is my responsibility to keep them healthy at all times and that includes what I feed the. Pesticides are not gonna take any of my teddies away. We need to be their voices. #catpower

#180

It's about time our voices gets heard. Our pets are not just animals. They're part of our family. Many people might not see it that way but to us they mean the world and there's nothing that would fill that void once they're gone. Prevention is better than a cure, because 9 times out of 10 the cure doesn't even work

(Johannesburg, 2017-06-20)

No pets of my own. But signing this to raise awareness for all those who do

I few years ago I had a boerboel puppy. I came home from school to find that he was gone. A few days later I found my puppy dumped outside my gate, He was poisoned.
Kindness and love should not only be shown towards human but towards animals too.

STOP KILLING OUR ANIMALS. We NEED them, We LOVE them, We Cherish them..
they might not have voices to speak for themselves but they do have more HEART than YOU...
Leave them alone, You might not need them or care for them but we DO..

My cat was poisoned and he was a big part of our family. What was worse was that the SPCA took liberty in cremating him before they had even told us that he hadn't made it. They are helpless and joyful. These killings are totally out of hand.

I'm not a pet person but they're God's creation too ... #Supportingafriend
