Question
HI,
What to do when someone says next time your dog in in the street I am going to kill him?
Thank you,
Paula Lopes
Under what circumstances? Why is your dog out on the street anyway? Has he done anything to annoy this person? I would try to talk to this person and negotiate with him. Explain that you fully appreciate his concern and explain why your dog is on the street. If he issues further death threats you should try to keep your dog away from him for his protection and you could contact your local council or RSPCA for the stance that the law takes on such threats.

I can answer questions on animal cruelty and can provide links to animal charities involved with this work. I cannot answer questions on legal bills. I can provide information on upcoming events and general information about veganism and vegetarianism. I do not want to be attacked for my beliefs and any such questions will be ignored.

I write emails to help prevent animal cruelty and have also done peaceful demonstrations and fundraising for animals. I also attend vegan fairs on a regular basis. I am currently at university studying Wildlife Conservation.
