—->*UPDATE<———————————-

Animal Rights told Oprah to “adopt, adopt, adopt” and she did, did….now her first pup died of parvo and the 2nd one is very ill. Oprah went on TV with the sick dog and potentially contaminated other pups. The dogs came from Chicago PAWS group with the $9million facility. So who messed up? You don’t bring out new pups from rescue and subject them to other pups until adequate time has passed w/adequate vaccinations. Obviously this wasn’t done as pups don’t have immunity at 8 weeks even with the shots. Duh.

NEW: HATCHED IN THE USA    The bird people groups have produced both a new website and U tube video + new bumper stickers regarding the HSUS.  HSUS is targeting all pets, even fish.

The new laws do not exempt birds, reptiles, or fish, rabbits, hamsters, etc. Rescued animals (birds, rabbits,snakes, lizards,mice etc) are all included in the HSUS “no pet” mentality. The reason this is so, is because HSUS is just another PETA group, only HSUS has more money, power, political clout+more Photoshop sob stories about “poor” little birdie, puppy, kitty ad nauseam. See petdefense (on wordpress) to view the video!

 HSUS trying to stop the sale of animals or even displaying animals in specified, named public areas, including “outdoor special sales” which could include just about any sale outside!  CA AB1122 filed by H$US, Peta, ASPCA et al

Further, the law is saying if any group or person, does not have a 501(c)(3) corporation status, then that group CANNOT be exempted from displaying animals for sale,trade,etc. 

 That would mean (to us) that if are a volunteer group that works with dogs that need new homes, we cannot bring the dogs to a park and show people during a dog training class, that these dogs need homes since the proposed law says one cannot “display” any animal on a public right of way, which includes a public park in our book, or a bike trail park setting? 

CALIF–HSUS helping advocate  another J. Mancuso bill, this time it’s a re-hash of MSN, by saying intact dogs need special extra licensing/or fees–didn’t finish reading it because anything Mancuso sponsors is from PETA so why bother. It’s all trash, and ignores the reality of shelters. Animal rights ignores reality and focuses instead on hyper-emotionalism based on Photoshop type pictures without facts. Typical, and usually no verification of any numbers they used, nor any verification of any evidence. Bottom line: They tell stories.

FEDERAL APPEAL, DENVER:  The Dias et al case appeal has been filed in Denver Federal Appeals Ct, 10th Circuit. From looking at the appeal, it seems unlikely that it would prevail, but one never knows. HSUS tried to claim that DNA testing is 99% accurate by quoting a company blurb. (HSUS, the same group that raised Katrina $$ and can’t account for the $34million of donations. Yeah, THAT HSUS.) 

PA Case, on laws pushed by HSUS+ASPCA re commercial kennels; Federal Lawsuit filed in February 2009, alleging unconstitutional provisions affecting commerce and more. Filed by Non profit association for dog breeders,constitutional questions, the complaint looked good, allegations rational.

LOUISVILLE KY CASE:  CURRENTLY (3/2009)  THE ANIMAL CONTROL IS ENGAGING IN SEARCH/SEIZURE LAW THAT IS LIKELY ILLEGAL AND LAWSUITS ARE BEING FILED, POSSIBLY ALSO CLASS ACTION……..The awful law by the city (which HSUS set up for them) I believe was voided out, however there is now Federal litigation case re  the constitutional aspects pending. HSUS attempted to file an amicus brief TWICE–and the court REFUSED to allow them to file it.  that was a good sign. The law contains many worthless and unbelievable conditions, such as you must notifiy AC when you go on vacation and tell them where your dog will be? 

TN, IL, MN, FL,NV,TX,CA,WA,PA,WV,NM,MI, (34 states)  and many other states are now targets of HSUS+ASPCA inspired legislation. For example: Ownership of a dog with cropped ears would be prima facie evidence of a FELONY. due to animal “ABUSE”……When is enough, enough??!!!! Horses pulling carriages means animal abuse?! De-barking,de-clawing,tail docking, same thing–animal abuse, according to animal rights.

LOS ANGELES MSN: No news yet, we will have to check the file. Still alive but preliminary injunction not granted; it was filed in late April 08 on a Writ of Mandate.  

NEW:  Dade County, MIAMI re BSL……..Judge found that the BSL law using the dog show standards of either AKC or UKC etc. failed to meet the muster required under constitutional provisions (vague challenge) and despite case law of 20 years having claimed that such use is ‘rational’ (and therefore legal) the Judge ruled in favor of the dog owner. It reamins to be seen how this will transpire down the line. In addition, there is a proposed bill in Ohio (Lucas County) to change the prima facia provision of APBT or what looks like APBT dogs–to be like any other dog. Currently Ohio has the only law in the nation which categorizes such dogs as prima facia “vicious” which cannot be challenged.                      

~*~*~* AB1634, CA proposed MANDATORY ALTERING OF 98% OF PETS–was GUTTED AND MSN IS DISMANTLED!! as of 6/19/08, there is NO Mandated altering in the bill for 98% of pets as formerly touted by Mancuso.

NOW the ARs have brought it back, in 2009 this time with different wording, but essentially it keeps saying the same thing.  [It should be mentioned that in June 2007, Levine had the proposed AB1634 worded whereby it stated, that IF one was to be allowed to have ONE litter (and only one) of pups, the owner of the litter MUST GIVE THE PUPS AWAY FOR FREE.]

 REPEAT–THE OWNER MUST GIVE THE PUPS AWAY FOR FREE. *[In other words, the animal rights claim a person or business cannot make any profit off any animals, plain and simple.] Below is a typical AR profit stunt to get donations and to be on TV.

HSUS’ goal is to  be the ‘bigman’ of the AR groups. By not holding protests (like on TV), H$US claims to be “mainstream”, but there no such thing as “mainstream” Animal Rights.

 

 Despite the glib smile and misleading statements by HSUS attempting to make the public believe that buying a pet is wrong—  HSUS does not care about shelter dogs. Shelter animals are just a ploy for the animal rights to achieve their hidden agenda lifestyle.

Where no one can use, own or employ any animals or animal products. A close look at H$U$ shows they do the same thing as PETA but carefully ATTEMPT to make it appear as if they are “mainstream” and they claim they are “mainstream” so as not to get people turned off by radical antics–and lose donations! 

 Yet H$U$ is actually WORSE because they file ALL the animal rights legislation in the USA–in up to 34 states RIGHT NOW, 2009. Just look at the AKC legislative page online. It’s all spelled out. Also the American Sporting Dog Alliance spells it out in detail. Don’t believe for one second that this is nonsense. It is the truth.

We know because HSUS tells shelters to KILL animals after 72hr!!!

HSUS recently had over 140 dogs and PUPPIES killed, in NC,  where many pups were yanked out of foster homes to kill them. Then, HSUS says that HSUS is starting a “pitbull training team” in Atlanta and will rescue pitbull dogs from dogfighting?  Does that make sense to kill all dogs in a raid, refuse to test them, despite the 3rd party offers, then claim they will rescue such dogs and train them?  HSUS testified in COURT that it costs “$190,000″ to rehab a dog. Of course that is false, but if it did cost that much, then why would HSUS bother to rehab/train pitbulls while telling courts and everyone else, to kill them?

  It’s a sad day in the United States when radicals (animal extremists with hidden agenda)– think they can affect every pet owner in this way. Check out  humanewatch.org for the lowdown on how hsus continues to act as the AR legislative arm, while misleading the public into thinking it spends $ on saving or running shelters.

It does not run any shelters. Instead it actually spends most money on raising more $$$, media lobbying, political pandering, filing lawsuits and aiming legislation at dog commerce. It publishes an online/print magazine pertaining to shelters. Petdefense.wordpress.com  or endangeredowner.blogspot.com or saveourdogs.net all explain the big picture of how pet/animal commerce natiowide–has been under attack.

The big picture is, according to HSUS, ”all breeders” (of anything) are bad,bad,bad. So to differentiate between which is a ‘good’ vs ‘bad’ breeder then becomes an AR strategy. (Their ALLEGED rationale is to get rid of the ‘bad’ people, however, anyone who breeds an animal is bad to ARs, so obviously they are set on getting rid of all of it)

Therefore, as advocates we can’t differentiate or employ one upmanship. Collectively as a unified group, combined with the public however, we have far, far more people than any AR group could ever hope to have. They are in the minority but they are loud and they take donations from unknowing members of the public. 

And unknown to most until recently, certain animal rights extremists attempted last year to snuff out a well known canine advocate; the perpetrator (one of them) will be sentenced to federal prison soon when his sentence is approved, for attempted murder–which will be long, hopefully.. So don’t believe that animal extremists don’t commit crimes against people–they most certainly do.  And it is not surprising that canine advocates or breast cancer scientists are targeted.  

Restraining orders granted for UCLA against ARs that did home invasion against scientist… Recent animal rights terrorists were indicted under the AETA (Animal Rights Terrorism Act) in CA for extortion or blackmail because they further threatened people with more harm [where the people were involved with science/animals] 

     Greetings……..

We are advocates against anti-pet laws. It appears that winning the battle against the ARs requires using fire against fire. We need to bring the TRUTH to the forefront by showing groups like H$U$ have credibility problems, since they claim to save animals, but kill dog/pups; they claim to protect animals, but seize animals having no problems by calling them abused; they claim to make laws protecting pets, but go behind our backs, and make legislation which is anti-pet in nature, disguised by using purposeful terms which are extremely vague, with the intent that such words can cover a vast number of circumstances, thus eliminating their target areas.

The Animal Rights Hidden Agenda has 12 Steps (like Alcoholics Anonymous) and all animal rights follows the 12 steps. HSUS is currently working on about 5 of those steps at one time. Included in the 12 steps is the ELIMINATION OF THE PET TRADE, PETS, BREEDING OF PETS.

First they, the ARs, say eliminate this breed. Then, eliminate all breeding. Then, eliminate all dogs being sold. Then, eliminate all dogs as pets. It’s not that difficult to figure out. They even tell us that is their plan. PETA,  in particular,  advocates to kill all pitbulls to end “abuse” of the dogs.

Recently evidence has shown that “rehomed”, rescued  and shelter dogs are responsible for a substantial amount of the fatal attacks across the country. [Only approx. 15% of all dogs are Re-homed,rescued+shelter dogs.  That leaves the other 85% that are not rescued. But even if we assume less than 85% are "not" rehomed, it is obvious that many re-homed dogs have issues unless they were given up for a totally benign reason and had absolutely no issues at all.]  

About 50%+ of the attacks have been attributed to dogs which are either rescued, re-homes (like Craigslist) or shelters.

 THIS INDICATES THAT RE-HOMED, RESCUED AND SHELTER DOGS ARE 500% MORE LIKELY TO INFLICT A FATAL ATTACK.  We should not be concentrating on “tethering” as tethering is not necessarily the cause of killing. 82% of fatalities are from dogs at large.

What is not surprising about this, is the fact that many rescue people believe in “saving” animals even if they have questionable temperaments, and they believe that the dog ‘may’ bite people, but allegedly it won’t bite people IF you do such-and-such with the dog.

An example:  Rescue from around Fairfield, CA, collected mostly bad dogs to adopt out. One dog had already been returned 3-4 times for aggression. Another was a known biter.  Another was anti-social and hated kids.  Another had already harmed a child. But still, these dogs were being adopted out. AND the leader of the rescue claimed there was nothing wrong with these dogs.

Sure enough, a poster on infamous Craigslist, posted the story of adopting the known biter. She took the dog home and it immediately tried to bite a family member. The rescuer person then lashed out at the adopter and blamed her for letting a family member attempt to pet the dog.  When we see scenarios like this, we are not surprised at the number of dog altercations out there.  Thank God, this rescue is no longer showing pets  in Sacramento, and the rescue has closed down.

Another study done/ recently published,  in attempting to categorize dogs which bite children, showed that 93% of the dogs which had bitten (not fatal attacks)  children were ALTERED. The study did not state the source of such dogs, but it would not be surprising to find that they may have been rescued dogs. This was surprising to the people doing the study, as many believe that altering a dog will render it non-aggressive. This is not true and in some instances it might reduce some dog-dog aggression, whereas in others it may have little and no effect.

          ~~~~~DOG SAFETY ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For new dog owners without any dog experience, it is best to avoid a dog where you cannot ascertain the history of its background, esp. if you have small kids such as age 4.  Many dogs are mistreated and if temperament testing does not show aggression, they assume the dog is ok when it is NOT ok. This has nothing to do with breed of dog but everything to do with the unknown background.

One of the best defenses against dog BITES is to safety train your kids *BEFORE*  you get a dog, no matter what type dog it is. It is a fact that many bites are done by smaller dogs, and it is a fact that many owners of smaller dogs allow the dogs to rule the roost, and thereby allow the dog to control the master. 

 When this is done by a larger dog, everyone blames the dog.  When this is done by a smaller dog, very few people blame the dog. Lots and lots of small, yappy dogs are biters. And having owners that let them get away with such behavior is inappropriate.
