the problem is Humane Officer is a PSCA employee and not a government employee vested with the powers of the state. The control of disipline regulation etc are in the hands solely of the local courts The only real course of action is unfortunatly is in a civil court action. and there is legislation afoot to make this much harder by raising the threshold of from simply negligence to gross negligence et. al.
