This awesome piece by Jean Donaldson written for Your Pit Bull and You is a must-read. Dogs would like us to understand that they’re fed up with our utterly cavalier rampant destruction of their psychological well-being and, most of all, with our nightmarish acts of “training.” It is 2014 and it is still okay to use electric shock and collars that dig spikes into their necks. It’s okay to choke them with metal chains or with rope collars that are specially designed to fit really high and tight against the non-muscle-protected part of their throats. It’s okay to hit them, kick them, throw stuff at them, pin them on their backs until they urinate in terror, and strangle them until their tongues turn blue or they pass out. It’s not only still legal* to do this stuff, it’s done by well-meaning people, people who recycle and consider spousal battery heinous, who work to end school bullying, people who donate to the humane society. It’s also done by some of the humane societies themselves.... These practices are elective. Read on & please share...
