DoggieNews: Taking a Stand for the Dogs

Taking a Stand for the Dogs

Monday, November 13, 2006

You gotta admit, this is the Apocalypse for dogs in China...
Yesterday's protest was sparked by police raids on an area of luxury villas. According to the state news agency, Xinhua, the security forces discovered six "large unlicensed dogs" in the dragnet. It did not disclose their fate. Elsewhere, residents have reported seeing policemen beating dogs to death in the street. Only dogs shorter than 14 inches are allowed. "Mastiffs, dobermans, saint bernards and great danes are banned," Xinhua said, along with any dog considered "dangerous".
What I wanted to point out is that the only ones risking their necks to save these dogs are the dog owners themselves. They're the only ones who love dogs enough to take a stand against a government that isn't shy about gunning down its own citizens.

The Chinese people demonstrated in defiance against police, against the new law that limits each family to one dog, and only small dogs at that. All other dogs get killed.

They kill the dogs for their fur,
They kill the dogs for rabies even ones with out rabies, now they are killing them for size?
I think they enjoy it. They should have a LAW there to keep the poor dogs safe. The killing of dogs like that is a SIN!

Strays animals in Mexico are treated just as badly and inhumanely. They are clubbed to death or electrocuted in an ancient machine that is truly a torture device. There are brave souls who volunteer their time to operate animal sanctuaries in Baja and San Felipe, on a shoestring budget. If you can, please look up their websites and donate!

They are sinful, bloodthirsty, brutal, inhuman, merciless, savage,
barbarous, vicious, and ruthless beasts!
