The National Association of Municipalities for Dog Welfare in Chefchaouen is demanding an end to unregulated dog collection and relocation operations. The association stated it has observed the municipality of Chefchaouen working with a private company to gather and remove dogs, expressing strong disapproval of what it describes as “random collection and violence against these creatures.” The group alleges the operations are being carried out without proper legal oversight. They are concerned about the methods used in both the collection and transportation of the animals. The association’s statement, published by Hespress, highlights the need for humane treatment and adherence to legal protocols in animal control. This issue raises concerns regarding animal welfare standards in Chefchaouen.
