10. Criminal Dog Owners
- They vary in size, shape, color and creed.
Whether urban or rural, they
thrive in environments where crime does pay.
This breed may deliberately train dogs to be
human aggressive. This breed has been known to shoot dogs for fun it. They
fight dogs and use sweet tempered dogs as bait. Here in the New York area -
they've been known to feed dogs ground up glass and gun power to toughen them up
- you know-In case the police kick the front door - they're out the back - and
the dogs are in between.
9. Irresponsible and Ignorant Dog Owners
Characterized by a complete lack of common sense and or manners, these dog
owners come in three distinct varieties - Dumb, Dumber and Plain Stupid.
However they do share the same
breed
traits, like
- Complete disregard for local leash or pooper scooper laws
- Stubborn, self-centered rudeness
- The inability to see the potential consequences for their behavior
So here are the three types if I & I's:
- Dumb- When Snowball whines to go out, they throw open the
front door and let her out to wander the neighborhood. Snowball is free to
poop and pee wherever she likes. And if Snowball should wander into my yard
and my dog defends its territory, like many dogs .......we've got a problem.
- Dumber - Easy to recognize, this genius nonchalantly
walks their dog off leash in the neighborhood, like it's no big deal. WEll in
my book - it is a big deal. How would you like it if I let my dog run up to
your children off leash. Or run up to any
person
who may be afraid of dogs. (and BTW - I support off leash space - just not on
the block). And it's not OK if your dog takes a dump in my flowerbed, got
that?
-
Plain Stupid-
Waaaaay short on common sense - they let their children play
unattended with dogs, or let them run up to pet a stranger's dog or get in a
strange dog's face.
8. Negligent or Abusive Dog Owners
Like sociopaths who lack basic the human trait of compassion - this
all-too-common breed is well known for a lack of care or concern. They are,
however, gifted and talented in the areas of neglect or cruelty.
These G & Ts routinely fail to give their animals even the basics of food, water
or shelter or fail to provide vet care.
David Owens, an employee of Child Services
in New York, has been accused of leaving his dying Akita out in the cold for
weeks.
Even
beating the dog is OK
for these people- it's only a dog. Even if it's not their dog!
Kick it if it gets in your way, wants food or attention.
OK - so cruel and unusual punishment is against law, so giving them the
same treatment is out. Too bad.
6. Ignorant Shelter Workers & Rescuers
We give shelter and rescue workers big snaps for the great job they do on a
daily basis. That said - they are some bad apples in this bunch. Who? These
people are marked by their staggering ignorance, leaving the rest of the dog
world stammering in surprise.
Statements from these so-called "professionals" include, "We don't adopt out
Pitbulls - they have locking jaws", and "We don't adopt out Rotties or Dobermans
- they're aggressive". Better yet, they hide a dog's health or behavioral
history, thinking that all dogs can be saved, from adopters who may be in for a
big surprise. Someone needs to teach this breed a lesson - and quick.
5. Ignorant Dog Fanciers
Nose and tail always in the air with, "Breed restrictions don't really apply
to me - I own a PUREBRED dog". Oh, really ? Maybe you'd like to share
you magical powers with the rest of us....or better yet ............
4. Arrogant Dog Fanciers
Not only are nose and tail always in the air, but his type will even dis
their fellow dog fanciers with, "it's not my breed". Ain't that special? Now
bend over ...........this won't hurt a bit....
Numbers 4 and 5 do a diservice to the many hardworking, ethical home breeders
who care deeply about their dogs and the welfare of dogs in general.
3. Irresponsible News Media
They attack -unprovoked, when you least expect it. Out of the blue, and
really just when those ratings are starting to take a dive. That's just the
perfect time to lead with a dog story. These media outlets target large working
breeds, they thrive on fear. And they are yellow to the core.
- Yeah - I'm talking to you, Kathryn McIntyre of the
Commerce City Journal for your lack of editorial integrity for
publishing the street addresses of pitbull owners. Sex offenders have more
privacy rights than dog owners.
- And yeah - I'm talking to you all you local metro broadcast news outlets,
like CBS Channel 2 News in New York
that that invariably portray "dangerous" dogs as Pitbulls or Rottweilers. In
journalism - we don't automatically portray stories of rapes with images of
black or Hispanic men. Nor should we visually support dangerous dog news
stories with pictures of Pitbulls and Rottweilers, by default - like the one
shown here from the CBS News site:
- And yeah, I'm talking to you, for any print or web media that shows that
same doctored photo of a snarling pitbull with digitally elongated teeth.
This ain't news - it's titillating info-tainment designed to spike fear, ad
circ, and ratings at the same time.
It's time to run these out-of-control puppies back thru the basics - you
know, fair and balanced reporting, media ethics - all that stuff they swore by
in journalism school.
2. Greedy Insurers
These insurers aren't dogs - they're pigs. And who's to stop them
when...........
- they can chow down of easy profits on the backs of good dog owners by
denying, limiting or eliminating coverage of dog owners in 37 states?
- they stuff so much of their piggy bank bucks into the pockets of
politicians?
Then politicians, hoggin' up all that campaign dough , do the bidding of the
insurance sector, blocking bills that would make it illegal for insurers to
discriminate against good dogs and good dog owners.
There's a saying - pigs get fat, but hogs get slaughtered. I'd like to invite
you all to a barbeque :-)
1. Opportunistic Politicians
These dogs will whine - they beg - they'll do anything for attention - and
money - especially from those fat cats in the insurance lobby who ensure
obedience with juicy campaign donations. These politicians breed fear, thrive
on ignorance and count on apathy. Prime examples are :
Michael Bryant - Ontario's infamous "Puppykiller"
for the province's sick and twisted breed ban. One must "prove" that a dog
isn't a pitbull and the law requires all pitbull type puppies be shipped out of
the province, sent to reseach facilities or euthanized.
Jackie
Speier of California, AKA "The Breed Exterminator"
,
and notable author of SB 861, which is having a chilling effect on dog ownership
in California
Paul Wesslehoft of Oklahoma
- whose bill to ban certain breeds just went down in flames in the state
legislature there.

Molly Markert of Aurora, Colorado's Town Council - that smiling Miss Prim (we
hear she smirked to the audience when the breed ban passed) - and noted
dog-hater,
a leader in passing Aurora's 12 breed dog
ban
I've got a message for you - kick these headline grabbing, egg-suckin',
political opportunists of ANY political persuasian to the curb in the
next local or state elections.
