I have been helping and attempting to save the animals for over 20 years. I once lived in a small country town in Cleveland MS. They had more animals in there shelter which they euthanized daily due to lack of space-this place was a 1/4 of the size of a major city, very sad. They also had Pitt Bull breeding for fighting purposes as well as rooster fighting. I saw first hand when I first moved there ( only because I married a bumpkin) at least a dozen Pitts chained to a tire and a dog house, as well as roosters chained by their ankles as well to the yard. The roosters supposedly belonged to a Sherriff-who had cock fights on a regular basis. I was upset and wanted to report everything to the ASPCA but I was warned not to- I would never have been able to find my way back to what I had seen in either situation-and no one was willing to help me out of fear. I have been back in Fla. for 6 years now trying to forget the HUNTING, gunshots, etc. I did bring back 3 strays with me. 5 months ago my newest found me while I was walking one of my dogs-he was chipped-never registered, I ran ads everywhere, no one cared. I kept him. I could never understand why anyone would ever be so cruel and not care? Any human that could harm an animal could kill a human without thinking twice, I do believe. <em>wendybird's last blog post..<a href='http://queenofhercastle.blogspot.com/2008/03/natural-flea-control-environment.html' rel="nofollow">Natural Flea Control Environment Friendly</a></em> Hi, new here.

Lots of thought provoking articles and comments here. I realize that blogs about animal abuse are not as 'popular' as blogs about current celebrities and other trivial nonsense, but I feel compelled to do something to raise awareness about the abuse that goes on in many Indian Reserves throughout Canada. (see my blog: http://respectmeansyou.blogspot.com Closing our eyes to what is going on will not stop the abuse, for sure. Because Canada is such a huge country with so few people, (only 31 million, which is the population of California!) there is a real problem in trying to update our animal cruelty laws here across so many different provinces. Animal cruelty laws have not been changed since 1892 in Canada. Bit outdated, wouldn't you say? Animals are still considered property here and have no rights. People caught harming or killing an animal get no jail time & are seldom fined. This needs to change, and fast. I hope you will check out my blog, and take a moment to send an email to our politicians to SUPPORT Bill C-373, which will really add teeth to our current inadequate laws. Many Americans do not support seal slaughter and I believe this is equally as important an issue. Indian Reserves in Canada currently are not punished for companion animals killed within their Reserve. The law needs to serve everyone equally and should make no distinction between Indian and non Indian. Anyone who abuses an animal should be punished. The connection between people who abuse animals going on to abuse (or worse, kill) humans is strong and has been proven by many animal groups, such as Humane Society of the US. Please lend your voice to this and help our companion animals by pushing Bill C-373 to make it law! Would love to hear from anyone who has any suggestions or comments.
