I understand completely DJ. Nothing is 100% safe on the internet ofc, but petition online is a well known and respected site, I have used it many times. They even send petitions to number 10, who then acknowledges them, so I think the site is safe.
I used Babel Fish to come up with this translation of the petition, a bit of a mess I'm sure but it at least gives the idea. Just use your intials or something to sign, it doesn't really matter that much I would think. When you do go to sign, the fields will also be in Spanish, and they are basically name, email address, town and country fields.
Translation of petition:

One of the "artists", Guillermo Habacuc Vargas (

He is inadmissible that pisoteen of this form the rights of the animals and that the "artist" had gathered it of the street to let it die moored with a cord to the wall of the gallery when she had the opportunity of not making it or even save it.

"According to I knew the dog died on the following day by lack of food. During the inauguration I knew that the dog was persecuted in the evening between the houses of aluminum and cardboard of a district of Managua with santo name who Habacuc that could not need at the moment. 5 children of whom they helped in the capture received 10 bonds of córdobas by their collaboration. During the exhibition some people requested the freedom of the small dog, to which he artist refused himself. The name of the dog was (it was) Natividad, and I let myself to him die of at sight hunger of all, as if the death of a poor dog was a shameless mediatic show in which nobody does nothing else that to applaud or to watch disturbed."
Nothing we can do by this dog but if to treat of which the organizers of the Central American Biennial Honduras 2008 do not admit this "maltratador artist" of animals. I request to you you adhere to this request and that you spread more than it is to you possible shameful east act to gather the maximum of companies and to veto it in the biennial.
Sincerely,
