Service dog killed in traffic ends up at San Jose rendering plant

Commonly, the dead animals taken to tallow plants are boiled down to oil that goes into a range of products, including fertilizer, soap and stock feed.

Wait what??

& the government wonders why MAD COW keeps popping up!! WTH!!

I feel horrible for the dog & the owner, but that comment about stock feed is FAR FAR FAR more frightning & THAT needs to be investigated more (as well)!!

I thought that stuff was banned in the USA??

I know its banned in Canada & the hormone shots, but assumed the feed thing was banned in the USA aswell... if not, thats so gross!!!!

I am so sorry for this beloved service dog's owner. To think that your beloved friend could be hauled away & dumped like trash is very upsetting.

How awful. I can't imagine what that poor dog's owner, and its raiser, are going through right now. Even thinking about my animal being disposed in that kind of way makes me angry.

This is the last time I'll use soap....maybe my stinkiness can be used in an animal rights campaign...

If you're going to protest the use of tallow and rendered animal products, make sure you don't use any steel (tallow is used in the rolling process), and a number of other industrial processes.
