I am writing you because we desperately need your help. There are over 200 dogs (originally rescued from puppy mills) in Osaka, Japan that are facing extermination by the Osaka prefecture on Feb. 27th 7a.m. (In Japan time). Many of these dogs have been infected by Brucella canis and that is the reason for extermination. Osaka prefecture has done so little to save these dogs' lives. It seems to me they never meant to help them in the first place. These dogs could be saved by appropriate treatment but nothing has been done. There are couple of organizations in Japan that have been trying to save these dogs, but Osaka prefecture has no ears to listen and ignored all of their attempts to help. We need to stop killing dogs that are treatable and we need your help to change their mind about this.

I urge you please to contact the Japanese embassy in the US, or any other places you can thing of, and implore them to stop killing the dog that can be saved by appropriate treatment. These dogs have been mistreated by human since they were born and it is time to treat them right!

Here's the contact information of Japanese embassy for your convenience. We really don't have time, please show us what you can do to make a difference in this matter.

上の文章ですが、今にも殺されそうになっている犬達を助ける為にアメリカにある日本領事館に連絡をして、犬を殺すのをやめさせるように要請して下さいという事を書いてあります。住所や、電話番号、メールアドレスが載っていますが、それはワシントンＤＣにある日本領事館の連絡先です。（ヒューメイン・ソサエティ・インターナショナルはアメリカのワシントンＤＣにあるので、そこにある日本領事館のアドレスを載せました。）

沢山の皆さんがメールを書けば、間に合うかも知れない。正直、アメリカには時差がある為、非常に難しいところですが、やってみないと分からない！最後まで諦めないで行くべきです。よろしくお願いします！！
