MONTPELIER, Vt. -
Animal welfare advocates presented Governor Shumlin a petition to strengthen animal abuse laws in the state.
A press release says that the advocates urged lawmakers to pass legislation that would ban extreme confinement of breeding pigs in gestation crates, strengthen standards for commercial dog breeders, require complex surgical procedures on animals to be performed by veterinarians and to expedite hearings on animal cruelty cases to allow for the adoption of animals into new homes more quickly.
The petition delivered to Shumlin had more than 1,300 signatures on it.
FOX44 and ABC22 reporter David Hodges will have more on this story tonight on ABC22 at 6,7 and FOX44 at 10 p.m.
