Giving You More Than Just My Two Cents
Wacky Animal Activists
Look, Im all for the humane treatment of animals, but these people in the Southern Tier have taken things a little too far.
Its the annual "Chain Off" where humans will spend the night in dog crates and chained up. Well keep them there. Someone should go put a pad lock on those crates overnight.
We crate our beagle during the day but its not to be mean, its for his own good. Hes a beagle and chews on everything and anything, when we are not home the chances of him ingesting something he shouldn't are extremely high, not to mention the chances of him destroying our personal belongings.
These people are just overdoing it just a bit here.I realize there is the other extreme of crating your dog and leaving them in there for excessive periods, but for all intensive purposes when we are not at home, he is in the crate. He is left with water and something to chew on, we usually come home on lunch and let him out for a few minutes and then he does the second half of the day.
Id love to ask these people what they do with their dogs......I guess they either have perfect dogs or they stay home all day.
I think that some/most animal activism is overzealous in its' desire to project human characteristics upon or animal friends. Farmers rarely seem to keep any animals in the house, with dogs chained to a dog house out back. Our society is tore up from the floor up and these wackos are just a sign o' the times. Dogs, cats pigs, goats, cows who the frig cares? People could guve a shit less about each other and the people who can't deal at all with other people cling to animals who love unconditionally of how fat and stupid U may be, Just my 2 cents. PEACE!!
Scooter, absolutely, not to take anything away from treating your animals humanely, thats something we should do absolutely, what is the alternative to the dog house and the chain? Your pet running around the neighborhood off its leash?
Id like to hear from from one of these activists and what their point really is. Would they prefer the invisible fence?
Aww they look so cute. This can't be a real story...is it? What a bunch of crap. Should have had boarded them in the dog houses
