You're out for a walk with your dog when two men suddenly appear and grab him before you have a chance to react. In an instant, your canine companion is gone. Then--as if that weren't horrifying enough--you later learn that your beloved friend is caged in

like leaving a child leashed and unattended, what is wrong with people? not surprised to read that someone so apathetic to animal welfare would steal the animals they torture to death.

Horrible! It used to be "never leave your toddler unattended", now dogs too!

I am against any animal experiments because what they think meat proteins or prescription drugs can do, flowers, herbs, your greens are more capable to doing. From painkillers to alternative meds for cancer and diabetes. Holistic is what I believe in.

Peru does not have animal rights laws. A while ago a congressman shot a dog and walked like nothing happened.

Please read the exerpt in the article that tells you how to help safegaurd your pet and to end vivisection.

Never give animals away "free to a good home."
Never allow animals outside without supervision.
Persuade schools to replace training on animals with superior non-animal methods.

Maybe in time - the voiceless won't be sacrificed for greed and we'll actually get the cures we've been waiting for.

Thanks Cher!

Thanks for posting, Cher. Thanks also to Teri for her comments!
There used to be warnings in a suburb of Los Angeles, where there were many Vietnamese, that warned about keeping a very close eye on your dogs, especially small ones!! I think that's been stopped now, at least I sure hope so.
