2008-05-13 Dismal Situa= Tion At Overcrowded Kennels (from York Press)

Theyre seeing similar situations over here; its tragic. The animals always lose out, and a lot of this is because people just had to have foreign holidays or a new plasma screen TV. A pet is for life, people. I already have several cats so I cant take another animal, but I did donate food and cash to a couple of local shelters. If I had a yard Id foster an animal to ease overcrowding; the council should look into that. A lot of shelters here in the USA have a foster program to relieve overcrowding in their kennels; it also helps to socialize difficult or shy animals. Once I move to a place with a yard (later this summer), I will be applying to foster a dog. Even if you cant take on an animal permanently, talk to the CYC and see if theyll allow you to foster an animal temporarily. It could mean the difference

2008-04-09 Coshocton Tribune Coshocton, OH

No dog should be kept tied outside for long periods. Its no place for a social animal like a dog. Bored and lonely dogs bark, dig, whine, pace, and become aggressive when tied out because they are miserable and have nothing better to do. They are also at the mercy of other dogs children, or adults. Bring the dog into your home, train him and make him a member of your family or give him to someone who will. Animals are not toys to be picked up and put down at will. They are living, breathing beings who need your constant interaction to be happy, healthy and sane. "

2008-03-29 The Daily News Online Area News Boy bitten by dog recovering; dog euthanized

Love should be unconditional for your child, but that has nothing to do with the dog biting. I dont really care what the kid did. The dog got what it deserved. A dog that bites in anyway and especially causing such great damage is the problem. A dog thinks its a member of a pack, a family. The family has a hierarchy and any dog that doesnt realize that its at the bottom of the hierarchy is just an accident waiting to happen. That is why animals need to be trained early. Most people are simply not qualifed to train their dogs and these are the results we can expect. "

2008-06-26 The Mount Airy News Archives News Local News Animal control officers save woman from near dog attack

I would like to commend Animal Control for the way they handled this situation. Some might put the welfare of a dog above the price of a human life, but I think these guys had their priorities right. I agree that the owners should be prosecuted and the property owner should have enough info to give authorities so they can find them. I run a business and people are bad about dumping animals and I have always been able to count on Animal Control when I called them. You failed to ask what time of day they called Animal Control. They fact that the dog was tied and had some food gave them a little more time to respond. Maybe confused needs to be put in the same situation and then lets see what they would be saying about how it was handled. Some people find fault with everything. "

2008-07-25 Pit bull rescued after abuse / Your Severe Weather Station, South Bend, Indiana News, Weather, Sports, Notre Dame News, StormTeam 16

I dont believe that there are any domesticated dogs that are "vicious by nature". Aggression isnt bred, it is taught through abuse or is a result of a neurological impairment. Bait dogs wont fight back the way they want them to, that is why they are bait dogs. Although there is no way of determining for sure if lingering trauma might cause some latent behavior problems in the future, it seems logical that this particular dog has been temperament tested and deemed worthy of rescue. A cute little mill dog purchased at a pet store might have similar issues. As mentioned previously, it is NOT the breed that is the problem. Animals should be considered our companions, not commodities or status symbols. I invite anyone to go into any kill shelter in the area and put an animal to sleep like the workers there have to do every day.

2008-08-26 Letter (Web version)_ ID collars_ microchipping can prevent pet tragedies The Journal Gazette

The dog was, in fact, at the shelter, having been picked up early in the morning on the July 1 as a stray. Because the dog was not wearing any identification and was not microchipped, there was no way to notify the owner that he had been picked up. Staff could not assist the family when they called other than to advise them to come in after the long holiday. July Fourth is the busiest and longest weekend of the year for the shelter because of animals being frightened by fireworks. The shelter even paid overtime to staff to come in on Sunday, July 6, so they could return pets who had identification if the pet could be traced and their owners reached that day.

2008-06-25 CTV Toronto- Multiple sources of poison behind dog deaths - CTV News, Shows and Sports -- Canadian Television

While this whole case is unfortunate and unlawful and clearly the people need to be caught there are a number of issues in High Park that should be mentioned. It feels like at least 1/2 the park is off-leash area - is this park primarily for enjoyment of people or dogs All too often owners of what they feel are "well trained" dogs have dogs off leash in clearly posted leashed areas. Second, Ive seen people barked at, jumped on by dogs that have been in water/mud, etc. in High Park. Ive seen children and parents who walk in the walking paved paths approached by off-leash pets who run up and want to lick them, play with them, or maybe bite them - you never know. Shakespeare in the park - Ive seen it interrupted of off leash dogs too. Not to mention the frequent poop I personaly have to avoid when walking with a stroller.

2008-03-03 Alison Stein Wellner: Mush. The 2008 Iditarod Begins - Living on The Huffington Post

Which has led those protests, is not endorsing the race but is not actively campaigning against it. The organization is focused on other programs, said spokesman John Balzar, who once served as a press liaison for the Quest. "Three to four million dogs are euthanized in America in shelters every year for not having a home; 300 million farm animals are kept in cruel confinement and 75 million animals are killed for their fur alone," Balzar said. "The Iditarod and competitive dog mushing are not one of our programs. " Iditarod officials, mushers and other supporters say huge strides have been made in dog care. And mushers say critics are just wrong when they say the dogs are forced to run. "No way we can make a dog go a thousand miles by being mean to it," (defending Iditarod champion Lance) Mackey said.

2008-05-17 L. A. animal events this weekend : L. A. Unleashed : Los Angeles Times

A general assignment reporter, has covered animals and their people across the state of California (and occasionally beyond. ) She chronicled the Oakland Zoos attempts to hand-raise a baby African elephant and followed the Los Angeles Zoos LA-born gorilla, Caesar, on his trek to a new home at Zoo Atlanta several years ago. Preferring to get up close and personal with her subjects, she once fed corn cobs to the LA Zoos now-deceased elephant, Gita (no connection between her demise and the feeding) and spent hours interviewing pit bulls at the Laurel Canyon Dog Park. Currently animal-less, she still insists on plying people with anecdotes about her cat, Arnold, who died ten years ago.
