HSUS Guardianship -Beware!

While HSUS started out to truly help endangered animals, they are now stepping into the same venue as PETA attempting to take our rights as pet owners away.

The drive to change the name from "Ownership" to "Guardianship" is a legal move to allow organizations such as HSUS and PETA to be able to bring law suits against pet owners in the name of their very own pets. Think of it as a sort of Doggie DYFS. You and your pet no longer have the autonomy to live a free and enjoyable life, now you as an owner must be faced with worrying that anything you say or do with your dog could misinterpreted, disliked, or become part of a grudge outlet. You end up in court, your dog ends up in a shelter and HSUS who has billions of dollars will now use them to build a legal case against you.

Now to make things even worse, the HSUS president is making jokes about proposing that dogs can no longer be called DOGS but rather must be referred to as CANINE AMERICANS. Although this appears to be a joking matter in a speech, in the HOSES mind, they wish dogs to have the same status as any other person living in the United States. Simple, dogs are no longer a different species, they now are equal to and part of the human species.
Will this new title give dogs more access to public buildings and transportation, no it will not. It will however give your neighbor or some stranger on the street the right turn you over to the police for using a leash and collar if said person believes a leash and collar to be abusive.
Will it give you the right to take your dog to state parks and hike free with the dog. No it will not, it will give a look out member of HOSES the right to take your dog away in the name of safety.
Where does all of this leave the dogs.
Their lives will not be better served but potentially get them separated from their families to placed in shelters while owners await trial.
HOSES does not really care about the true welfare of your pets but is more concerned with their own agendas.
Beware of the true meaning and agendas promoted in the Animal Welfare and Animal Rights. These groups are already in schools running programs to indoctrinate your children against you!

Dog Rights

There are legal battles going on each and everyday around the country over the rights of your dog and your rights as a dog owner.
Most people are unaware of these legislative moves being made to limit and reduce rights you have as a dog owner.
What are some of these battles called:
BSL - breed specific legislation. A term coined about the lack of due process to those individuals who own a dog of a particular breed. Presently it is the Pit Bull and any dog which looks like in any fashion, whether its genetics is actual linked to a Pit Bull. These dogs are faced with eradication from the face of the earth, which has actually happened in the city of Denver. The really scary part is the long list of dogs who will be eradicated right behind the Pit Bull such as German Shepherds, Rottwielers and Dobermans. What the list doesn't show you any and all dogs who have ever bitten will and are part of this insidious form of genocide.
Fueled by media, fueled by fear and emotional tactics but more importantly fueled by Animal Rights groups whose main issue is to get rid of all dogs which brings us to the next legal battle.

Spay and Neuter Laws. Many municipalities are building a spay neuter law which will force everyone to eventually spay or neuter their pets. This push is generated by the mis-information of over crowding in shelters by excessive breeding of dogs. In fact many shelters have to transport dogs from other areas of the country to keep their doors open. Fact, over 85% of the dogs in shelters are there due to behavioral and lack of training. Fact, this contrived notion of over crowding is again the brain child of the Animal Rights groups, especially PETA. The end result of this viscous law is this. In about 15 years from the inception of such a law, most all family and companion dogs will be gone from the face of the earth. Again, this is fueled by the Animal Rights groups who have spent may years and the billions of dollars unsuspecting individuals have given them in the name of caring for animals.

Leash and muzzles laws. Everyone is aware of leash laws but what many do not know is where and how leash laws are changing to the detriment of dogs. Soon all dogs will have to be kept in a confined area such as special pen where they cannot ever have any opportunity of getting free, not just in a fenced in yard. They will have to be walked on only a 3 foot leash, be muzzled when in public and never allowed into any area where the public may be present. Where then will you be able to walk your dogs, take those who can to play off leash with other dogs, be able to train your dogs to levels of off leash commands for the benefits of your dogs mental, emotional and physical well being?
Another of the animal Rights doing. Force people to not enjoy having dogs and no dogs will be owned.

These exaggerated laws and media contrived fears are getting way out of hand. In New Mexico the new laws stipulating what size and type cages a dog can be kept in prevents trainers legal from being able to safely and effective house train a dog or do many training tried and true training techniques which will successfully help owners with their dogs/ This law was made by people who have no idea of how to train dogs or what is even safe for a dog. Again fueled by Animal Rights groups.

Get a better idea of what is really happening in al the towns across America and how a move is marching across the land to suppress, intimidate and bring the end of companion dogs as we know it!

Pit Bull Slaughter in Kansas City

Owners have two weeks to turn their Pit bull dogs over for execution in Kansas City for elimination by the government.
This illegal behavior is unconstitutional, immoral, unethical, inhumane and ineffective in controlling dog bite related problems.

In Denver where the first illegal executions began, 83% of the dogs slaughtered were found to be social and well behaved dogs. The only thing Denver's laws solved was an extinction of a breed.

What breed do you have?
If you have any breed with Bull in the title, a Rottwieler, German Shepard, Akita or Doberman, kiss them good bye. Once all the Pit Bulls are destroyed, the elimination machine will march through your backyard.

Anyone in Kansas who doesn't write their legislator now, is an accomplice to this atrocity.
Anyone living in any other state had better be prepared to act quickly.

What can you do?
Train your dogs to be well behaved and under control at all times. This is every breed and size.
Keep your dogs secure when out in the yard.
Walk them on leashes and have complete leash control when out and about.
If you have a dog who is difficult to control get to an experienced trainer who can and does teach high level distraction training for real life.

Don't think because Pit Bulls are now the focal point your dog won't be next. Every BSL law has a list of other breeds already attached to it, so your dog may already be on the list for the Ultimate Solution, extermination!
If it happens to one it can happen to all!

More Bred Specific Legislation - which bred is next

Greetings ... if your breed of choice is the Rottweiler have the Kleenex close. The link below is to a BSL video that, we hope, will be useful in reminding us what is at stake in our battle against Breed Specific Legislation.

Does your dog get to vote!

Dogs Vote

There is much going on behind the scenes that pet owners are not aware of. These activities are slowly taking our rights as dog owners and the rights of dogs to live within our society.
Groups are finally starting to take some action and dog owners are starting to be heard.
Please take a look at this site and decide to step in and step up for our pets and the right to own dogs.
Don't forget in Denver, they came into homes and took dogs away to be destroyed simply because of the breed, good dogs were killed because it fit the description of a law.
Ban lists and laws are ready to be implemented that will eliminate other breeds and limit the potential of owning dogs free of ridiculously restrictive laws.
Take a stand now!

A thinking dog

Many people are looking for what will give them a well behaved and calm dog in the house.
There is a simple solution, make your dog think!
What do you need to do to have a thinking dog, anything that will cause them to use brain power.
Rather than just playing fetch, make the dog sit and wait. Hide the toy in an easy to find place. This will allow the dog the think as well as exercise.

Have you ever been to a all day seminar or lecture for work?
At the end of the day you are exhausted but haven't done any more than use your brain.
Brain power causes a chemical change which relax the body.

Now think of a marathon runner. What do they do to increase their ability to run longer distances, they run. Exercising our dogs is very important for their health and happiness. But exercise builds energy. So, walking or running your dog will only physically tire it for short period of time.
Now put thought power into place and you will have a calm dog.
Utilize your commands more frequently. To sit for any length of time requires the dog to focus it's energies into a single command and creates brain power.
A calm dog is a thinking dog, so make your dog think and you will both be happier.

Alfatoxin killing pets

Most likely, you have heard about the tragic situation in the news recently. At least 100 dogs nationwide died as a result of eating contaminated pet food from a well-known pet food company. This company has recalled 19 varieties of dog and cat food in 23 states. The toxin comes from a fungus found on corn and other crops and can cause severe liver damage in pets. Unfortunately, this terrible tragedy has not ended yet … more dogs are showing symptoms of the toxin.This is an extremely difficult time and our hearts go out to the families of those dogs that have died. As you know, our pets are our family and the loss of a dog or cat is just as painful as the loss of a family member.That is why I want to assure you that your pet is not in any danger eating any of our HealthyPetNet foods. As a veterinarian and formulator, I am aware of how the aflatoxin mold attaches itself to corn and other crops. That is why we have never used corn or wheat in our foods and we never will. Of equal importance is our quality control program, which is designed to keep our pet foods safe.

Anti-PAWS

There are underlying attempts by individual organization to limit and eventual remove dogs from our lives. These Animal Rights organizations have profited from emotional propaganda to get people to support their industry to the tune of billions of dollars. Now they have the funding and placed their people into the political arena to begin their swipe of dog and animal ownership.
Please review this information below and go the link provide to sign a petition against this never ending drive to control dog/pet ownership.
animal welfare has nothing at all to do with the welfare of animals. I has to do with the removal of and use of animals in our lives!
To: U.S. Congress
Whereas, S1139, and HR2669, known as the Pet Animal Welfare Act of 2005/2006 (PAWS) have nothing to do with the protection of animals, but are a usurpation of animal ownership, and use rights, and place the federal government into every private property of every animal owner in the United States of America. And whereas, the animal owner citizenry of the United States of America have written letters to our members of Congress voicing our opposition to S1139/HR2669, but have received answers that thank us for our support. And whereas, we who stand in opposition to S1139/HR2669 were not allowed to participate in the public hearings to voice our opposition. And whereas, Wayne Pacelle, of the Humane Society of the US, lied to the Senate Agriculture Committee, testifying that we who stand in opposition to S1139/HR2669 are "dogfighters". And Whereas, we the undersigned law abiding citizen animal owners have no option but to post our opposition to S1139/HR2669 to this petition on this public forum. Respectfully we stand firmly in opposition to S1139/HR2669, and further we vow with our signatures to refuse to comply with S1139/HR2669 should Congress pass them into law.
Sincerely,
The Undersigned http://www.petitiononline.com/nopaws/petition.html

Train them don't blame them!

This is Casey. He weighs about 140 pounds.
You would think a 140 pound dog gets to do what ever he wants!
Not true, Casey is a well trained, well behaved dog who can go with his owners anywhere and be as calm as he appears to be in this picture.

No one gets a dog with the intent of having problems.
Casey's owners were aware that he would grow from a small little bundle into a very big dog, so they trained him.
They trained him to be around other dogs, people and in different environments. They trained him to respond to their commands quickly and effectively.
They trained him to listen and respond no matter where he was or what was going on around him.
He was trained with a balance of reward and correction.
