No to Animal Cruelty.

Speaking of animal cruelty, what about killing chicken or pigs or cows so that people can have meat for food? is that also be considered as animal cruelty? Yes, it is true that animals has can not defend themselves. And it is painful to them to die because want to eat their flesh. How about that?

Unless you are vegan, you are actually torturing animals with every flesh-based meal you eat. Every animal you eat is tortured brutally & for no good reason. The only way to stop this life-long torture is to boycott these "products". You contribute to it with every dollar you give to the industries concerned. Governments provide these horribly inefficient (0.01% efficient!) industries with very generous subsidies & allow this form of legalized murder to continue all day, every day & can't "go after" them because it's called something different: Standard Industry Practice! Lawful killing & lawful torture for the whole life of the animal. One law for one type of animal, like cats & dogs that are owned (as opposed to stray) & yet another completely different rule for another type of animal - intelligent, loving creatures with every bit as much soul as your pets. You can't be serious! One one hand you condemn what has been done to these animals & on the other hand you condone & support & fund the livestock industries who brutally murder after a lifetime of torture over 424 billion (2005 statistics, it's much more these days) innocent, intelligent & loving animals every single year. Hypocrites, the lot of you! For shame! And then you go out & bash vegans on forums like these, who are the only ones with guts enough to actually "walk the talk", "practice what they preach" & put good sentiment, noble intentions and sympathetic thoughts & feelings into positive action! It's not good enough anymore just to want change. You must be the change you want to see in this world. No more idle talk. If you are truly compassionate, show it in your daily actions, then & only then does it count.

Hello totallyundecided, This is another proof of what a sick mind can do. I think he was inspired by those many photos that can be seen all over the Internet with puppies hung to dry on a clothesline. But those pictures are cute, because the puppies didn't suffer during the photo session. But this Jerzon Senador wanted to go further. Why to spoil a baby shirt to make the photo? He imagined he could simply hang the poor puppy by his skin. I hope he will receive what he deserves, more than only those negative comments from animal lovers from all over the world.

That photo is horrible. That poor little puppy. What were those morons thinking? I wouldn't even think of doing something like that to any animal. I think these people should never beable to have pets again. Question is, How do you truely stop them from get other pets? Best Wishes!

Absolutely disguisting. Shameful and totally disrespect for animals. Come on guys they also have life just as we do and more importantly they are most honest than we humans. Just because they cannot communicate that does not mean we can take advantage of them and do whatever we feel like. That picture of thd dog hanging on a clothes line is brutality. I'm sure that the person must be insane. Authorities should do the same with him/her and make them feel the same pain that the poor animal went through. Severe action has to be taken against such people. They should not be left free. I hope that the dog is doin fine and nothing severe has happened to him..

OMG! what a horrid picture! and such a cruel person.... i'm in a literal outrage right now! ugh! disgusting human.... doesn't he know that dogs has emotions too.. what the! if ever i will see that person, i can't promise myself that i will not curse him!

It is sad that some people are able to be cruel to animals. I believe that the way we treat animals shows what sort of people we are. If you can be cruel to animals then you can be cruel to anyone. I would never trust a person who showed any cruelty to animals and I would seriously trust a dog's view of a person. Dog's know if a person is ok or not.

Down with animal cruelty...

I just had a glimpse of that site and all what I can say is that whoever did that is not in his senses and needs to go to a psychiatrist. No normal person will do that. I love animals and I bend backwards to see that my pets are loved, fed well and treated when ill. I hope due action was taken and the matter reported.

definitely no to animal cruelty. a lot of my friends would agree to this because we all love animals big and small

Yes, i agree. I saw it online and i felt for the poor puppy. IT's pegged up on the laundry line with so many pegs. IT sure must hurt a lot for the puppy. I don't know why there are such cruel people, torturing small, defenceless animals for the fun of seeing them in pain. Such irresponsible people or even owners of pets should be jailed, caned, let them suffer the same pain like those animals.

Hello totallyundecided! Yes, my heart hurts for that poor puppy. But I think the lad did not really intend to hurt his puppy. He just gave him a bath and that only proved that he cares for his li'l dog! Sometimes, we all do have this "wild imagination" and this must have prompted the boy to hang his cute pup on the clothesline. Anyway, it's good that he immediately realized his mistake, showed regrets and apologized for his foul action. I think this is another lesson to be learned by many. Let's not just too quick to judge and easy to condemn others. What our society needs is better education and effective awareness campaign about the VALUE of ALL LIVING THINGS...and the RESPECT that they truly deserve!
