What’s up with PETA?

It’s no secret that PETA would be more than thrilled with the mass euthanization of all pit bull type dogs.

“People who genuinely care about dogs won’t be affected by a ban on pits. They can go to the shelter and save one of the countless other 
breeds and lovable mutts sitting on death row through no fault of 
their own.”- January 27, 2000 By INGRID NEWKIRK

Now PETA, notorious for their kill and dump method have teamed up with the notorious Dogsbite.org and Daxton’s Friends with the sole purpose of eradicating multiple breeds on a campaign of deception and fear mongering.

The thing about partnership is that both parties have to have a similar goal. Both parties have to acknowledge and accept each groups stance and behaviors. Is PETA now representing and supporting Dogsbite.org and Daxton’s Friends? Will they publicly accept the violent and extremist behaviors of their partners?

I’m confused. How would a group that makes such a profit by publicly protesting animal abuse of any sort want to team up with groups that openly  promote torture and killing of animals based on breed? Isn’t the whole basis of PETA wanting to euthanize pit bulls to protect them from abuse and cruelty?

This is one of PETA’s campaigns .. People who are violent to animals rarely stop there. Has PETA investigated the Dogsbite.org and Daxton’s Friends? Both groups sit around talking about how to kill dogs DAILY. Hell, the founder of Daxton’s Friends Jeff Borchardt ponders how to get away with poisoning neighborhood dogs.

I mean, I could go on for days showing DBO’s and Daxton’s Friends member ranting about killing dogs….

…..and some more…

….even more….

…. Some of good ‘ole Harve admitting to killing of pit bulls…

….shooting/stabbing them from a moving vehicle…

… Of course the hypothetical torturing.. Because it’s just so funny to talk about torturing dogs….

Really PETA? THESE are the people you want to hold bloody hands with? I guess when you already have blood on your hands, a little more won’t bother you, right?

Come on…..

Come on. Come the f@ck on. Alright, I get there are legitimate breeders out there. Legitimate, ethical breeders that want to better the breeds of dogs that they love. Whatever-  I don’t hold anything against you… but then- you have people like… the Toadline and Iron Mitt Kennels.

You know what, let me just give a great big F@CK You shout out to Iron Mitt Kennels. Seriously. First of all… your over priced mutts (Yes, you read that correctly- over priced mutts) are not a pure bred anything much less an American Pit Bull Terrier.

Hello to the next generation of seemingly legitimate back yard breeders (Yes, that was a purposeful oxy-moron.). Who the heck knows what those dogs are mashed with.  Some American Pit Bull Terrier? Sure! How about some American Bulldog? Well Duh…. Sprinkle in some Mastiff to reach that whopping 155 lbs? Why the hell not? Maybe some…. Mini Schnauzer? Who the hell knows? Great Dane? Could be?!!

 

You know what I see when I read their “resume” of pedigrees? Blah, blah, mutt, fancy mutt, American Bully, mutt, over priced mutt, American Pit Bull Terrier x with what ever, mutt, some more mutt…. and then the “Top Producing American Pitbull Terriers in the country” nonsense. Gee- Where have I heard that before? Oh riiiiiight… from every backyard breeder EVER. Every back yard breeder will tell you their mix mashed mutts up are top of the line!  I wonder how well that line of bullshit worked out for back yard breeders that created Niko- the over 130 lb mutt who killed a young 4 year old girl in Louisiana.

The scary part is…. they inbred these bad boys. They want bigger. Bigger head, bigger body, more mass, deeper chests, bigger, badder and not one single thought of the damage they are doing to millions of innocent dogs.

One thousand dollars as a deposit….

… and the break down of prices…. but HEY! If you can’t afford that, not a big deal! Iron Mitt Kennels out of Michigan offers a swip swap trade for these puppies.

Let’s talk truth for a moment- As long as we (As pit bull, Bully breed or whatever owners) allow this shit to keep going on, we will be fighting Breed Specific Legislation for the rest of our lives and our children and their children will be doing the same thing. What is the solution? I don’t know- but I do know, that as a community that loves our dogs and know just how awesome, strong, hard working and inspiring they are and can be, we are going to have to be the ones that demand some sort of something to protect not just our dogs, but all dogs from this type of greed.

I know that back yard breeders affect every breed out there, but when something goes horribly wrong with back yard breeders breeding dogs like this, like the case of Mia DeRouen– it becomes deadly and horrific. People like Iron Mitt Kennels are the gas that fuels Breed Specific Legislation.

I mean, are these the people that we want representing our dogs? How many times has this dog been bred? How many people have bought or traded jet skis and what not for her puppies?

What happens if that dog from their “purebred American Pit Bull Terrier” line gets tired of being sat on and bites the child? I can tell you what will happen….millions of families and innocent dogs will pay the price for it. Is that what you want?

 

When Pet Ownership Goes Horribly Wrong

 

Honest to Pete…. Some people should never, ever, ever, EVER be allowed to be responsible for another life, whether it be for humans or animals. I’m getting to the point that people should be screened and licensed before they are granted with the privilege of caring for another living soul. Let’s face it- some of the greatest examples of human negligence involves the inability to care for children and pets. Sometimes it’s one OR the other but it’s becoming more common that these cases are involving children AND the pet and many times, some of those cases turn out deadly.

So, according to this mother, the dog put the toddler in the bath and then forced the mother to go outside and get the mail- leaving the two year old unsupervised in the bath THEN decided to lock that poor mom out ON PURPOSE. It’s totally not the mom’s fault, right? What would have happened if that two year old would have drowned? It’s not like two year olds don’t have a history of drowning in water unsupervised….oh wait. They do.

 

……If your dog eats broken glass- jumping on Facebook and asking stupid questions should not be your first choice. How about picking your dog up, putting it in the car, putting yourself in the car and DRIVING TO YOUR VET? Would you ask that same question if your child decided to make a snack out of broken glass?

“Such a great cat! I let my two year old body slam him, sit on him, treat him like a piece of shit and the great cat has never tried to defend it self!” says this candidate for a horrible mother of the year. You know how children learn how to respect animals? From their parents. This is exactly why children get attacked by the “loving” family pets, because parents think it’s cute when their children treat the family pet like their punching bag. It’s great the cat didn’t rip the child’s face off, but now that the mom let their son traumatize the cat, it’s a good guess that the next family won’t be so lucky if they have a toddler.

What the hell is an unplanned heat? If your dog isn’t fixed then you have to know that a heat is coming at some point. Let me guess, this lovely back yard breeder had no clue that if they put their unaltered male great dane with their unaltered female that’s in heat would equal to ….. PUPPIES! With shelters bursting at the seams with puppies and dogs, what’s another 6 babies?

Since I know my BSL advocate fan club like to stalk this blog (Everyone wave Hiiiii!!!) I want them to pay close attention to this picture. Is this okay with you? Is this responsible parenting and dog ownership? Let’s look at the picture a moment- so, the dog has a cone around his head, which might mean he had some kind of medical procedure?  Could the dog not be in his right mind due to pain or medication? Could that change his normal behavior? Alter how he reacts normally? Now put a small child’s face in it. If that dog were to bite, where would it bite? The face? Of course. It would rip that child’s face open. That dog could easily kill that child- and who’s fault would that be? The dog’s? The child’s or the Parents? Obviously the moron taking the picture.

This is why children become statistics when it comes to dog attacks. Children become statistics because the adults make poor decisions when it comes supervising the interactions between dogs and children. Can someone tell me how BSL would prevent this child from being bit? Please explain to me Jeff Borchardt of Daxton’s Friends how BSL will protect this child from becoming a fatality? I’m sorry- what’s that? BSL isn’t supposed to prevent dog bites from all dogs just a select few? Oh that’s right! BSL isn’t about promoting or educating the public about actual dog safety. BSL isn’t about stopping or teaching families how to prevent dog attacks from all dogs….

 

I think it’s incredibly important that none of these animals are what BSL advocates would consider “pit bulls” ( well- unless it bit a person, then it could be passed off as part pit bull…). Irresponsible dog ownership and negligence go hand in hand and it’s not breed specific. For every example of irresponsible and negligent dog ownership that involves a pit bull type dog I can easily find one that is not pit bull related and this is exactly why BSL (Breed Specific Legislation) is such a total failure. Irresponsible ownership, back yard breeding and negligence is not breed specific. From those pesky ankle biters to the 200 lb hulking dogs that have children riding them because parents think it’s soooo cute. You can’t even call BSL a temporary band aid because it doesn’t address the real issue. The majority of dog attacks are caused by human failure. If you look at each and every dog attack or animal attack you will find that humans where the core issue.

  

The problem of strays? Totally human fault. It’s no brainer that the majority of issues involving domestic animals stem from human stupidity. When are we going to stop asking animals to fix the messes that WE created?  If you want to be a pet owner, you should be licensed. You should be screened. You should be held responsible. Animals are not disposable. Our pets should enhance our lives and we should enhance their lives. I remember a blogger getting mad at pet owners that consider their pets their children and for the life of me, I couldn’t figure out what got her undies in such a bunch. If you decide to take on the responsibility of having children or having pets OR having both you have to take it seriously. The bottom line is- our pets are animals and animals have the capability to maim and kill, no matter the size. As parents, it’s our responsibility to do everything in our power to keep our children safe and as pet owners, it’s our responsibility to keep our animals safe and that starts with regulating and holding the human behind the animal responsible. It’s obvious not everyone should own a pet and we need to stop letting animals fall into those hands.

Equality

I honestly was prepared to write something humorous in this post- but that changed the moment I came across an article posted by a friend. The articles glaring headline:

“Pit Bull Euthanized after Killing Yorkshire terrier in Hopewell Township”

but in reality- after reading the story, the head line should have read like this:

“Unleashed Yorkshire terrier killed after Irresponsible owners let small dog attack bigger dog”.

Which is what really happened. According to the article: “Teenie, who was not on a leash and in front of the Lehet house, charge Boou (the pit bull) and the pit bull pulled away from his leash to attack.” 

This isn’t the first time Teenie has been allowed to run unleashed and it’s apparent that Teenie had aggression issues with Boou since Teenie had attempted to attack the larger dog three other times. Unfortunately for Teenie- the fourth time was one to many times.

What is disturbing about this story is that Boou paid the price with his life while Teenie’s owner John and Janice Lehet walk away with absolutely no consequences. I’m sorry- but how is that just? Teenie died because John and Janice Lehet were irresponsible owners who thought it was acceptable to let their small dog aggressive Yorkshire terriers run unleashed. Let’s take Boou out of the picture- if Teenie had run out into the street and was hit by a car…. would it have been the drivers fault that the Lehets didn’t leash their dogs? If Teenie had decided to attack a child- would it have been the child’s fault? If Teenie had started any other dog fight with any other breed of dog and was killed- would it still have been the other person’s fault? How does it not become the Lehet’s responsibility? To add salt to the wound- John Lehet, you know- the man who failed to leash his dogs in the first place has the nerve to tell the press that Boou should not have been on a walk through a residential area. Why Mr. Lehet? Because you want to let your little dog run around the streets unleashed?

Thanks to groups like Dogsbite.org and Daxton’s Friends- excusing negligent dog owners like Lehet will be acceptable. Why? Because Boou was a “pit bull”. Thanks to Dogsbite.org and Daxton’s Friends- they are endorsing that dangerous and aggressive dogs are acceptable AS LONG AS IT’S NOT a PIT BULL- which is what Lindsay Rittenhouse of NJ.com is promoting also as she misleads the public with the headline of her story.

The tragedy is- two dogs were killed by one man’s irresponsible and negligence dog owner ship. John Lehet killed two dogs by his negligent behavior. It’s time to stop making pit bulls the scape goats for irresponsible dog owner of other breeds. It’s time for reporters like Lindsay Rittenhouse to stop fishing for a quick claim to fame by obfuscating the truth. Hold irresponsible dog owners responsible- no matter the breed.

It’s alright ‘cuz Roger Crawford is White

“It’s alright, I’m white ✊😄”- Roger Crawford

What would you do if you saw a large white man stalking your apartment complex armed with a loaded shot gun yelling belligerently at residents?

Call 911.

It seems like the beer chugging gun toting verbally abusive piece of trash over in BSL land is mad because he is unable to bully his apartment complex into throwing out people who have service dogs he doesn’t like….

An epedemic according to Roger the drunk, which probably means he saw ONE pit bull type dog. So, true to DBO form he’s ready to start harassing folks.

Roger- the piece of walking trash thinks it’s a great idea to walk around a complex with children playing with his loaded rifle threatening people and Jennie Sue thinks its a great idea! These people don’t truly care about people or children’s safety- Roger just cares about looking like a bad ass- but in reality, he’s a racists pathetic excuse for a man… But I think deep down he really knows that.

…. Judge all muslims and pit bulls as dangerous. Hilarious. Especially coming from the man who continously talks about killing dogs and harasses people. Roger is a bigger threat to children and people in his community than any dog.

What should worry the authorities is- Roger is a recently hired truck driver for a company called KeHE and he will be driving through many cities and towns with the mindset of terrifying and harassing groups of people and killing dogs.

You know who else had that mindset and was a truck driver?

Keith Jesperson- just another serial killer who was a truck driver.

I think it’s safe to say Roger Crawford can be and is as dangerous as Jesperson….

….but he’s not worried. He’s allowed to terrorize people with guns ‘cuz he’s white.

Something tells me Sprout and KeHE wouldn’t agree. Would you want Roger rolling through your town?

Go ahead and let KeHE know what you think about it if you want….their email is right here.
