Gas Chamber When you hear or see the words Gas Chamber you are
immediately reminded of Nazi Germany and the Holocaust. Well this is
not humans but it is the same for dogs. Rarely is just one dog at a
time put in the gas chamber. Usually 5 to 15 and more at a time. This
is in no way a humane death. The dogs tend to urinate and defecate on
themselves as the poison gets into their little bodies. You can hear
cries and howls as they suffocate. It takes some time before the dog is
killed. This allows the dog to become very frightened and anxious. They
struggle very hard to get out and survive. However, it is somewhat
common for dogs to survive the terrifying gas chamber. Of course they
suffer major damage. Usually they survive just to be locked back in yet
again. This form of Euthanasia is more common than you may think. In some states it is illegal, as it
should be. 
Heart Stake or Heart Staking
Shooting
Electrocution This form of Euthanasia is performed under the radar and in other countries as well. Dog fighters also use this form to kill the “losers” after a match. Electrocution is done in several ways. Most frequently using a car battery. The dog is connected to the car battery by jumper cables. The electricity is then passed to the dog, killing them. This is a very inhumane and horribly painful way to die. In Mexico it is used as a way to control the overpopulation problem. |
