As a pet owner how do you leave your dog with her puppies out in the cold to die? That’s what Anthony Murphy from Spartanburg, SC did when his pit bull along with her five puppies died from being in the freezing cold and not having any food.
How sad is that to just let your dogs die like that and now Anthony will be having a lot of charges filed again him for his cruel act he did to these dogs.

Down in Mississippi you have an animal controller named Alonzo Esco who has been fired for what is being said that he killed over one hundred dogs and cats and dumped them in a creek in Canton, Miss.
How low is that for a guy who is supposed to be protecting these animals to just shoot these animals.
This is the worst part of the article.
Madison County District Attorney Michael Guest said: It's unbelievable someone could do something like that to these animals. This is worse than Michael Vick. The most Esco likely would face is multiple counts of misdemeanor animal cruelty, which is punishable by up to six months in jail.
Are you for real to say that this lowlife might only get six months in jail for what he did. I would say that a guy who was being paid to protect these animals and did a cruel crime like this should be hit so hard of the head with the book by the judge because he failed to even be a human in life.

Two Different Video’s Of A Dogs Life
Watch CBS News Videos Online
The first video is about a dog who help save his friends life when a cougar tried to attack a child and the other video is about a little dog being abused for no reason by a lowlife named Chris Grant.
I wonder if the little Pomeranian Chihuahua would risk his little life to help protect this lowlife from a cougar if it came down to it after being abused by him, probably not.
That’s why we treat our buddies the best we can to let them know that we care about them because one day you never know there could be a day like little Austin Forman had when his dog saved his life. So please treat your dog as your best friend and they will treat you back the same.

Texas Animal Shelter Hit With Outbreak
The Williamson County Regional Animal Shelter has been hit with a Distemper outbreak which caused the director Cheryl Schnider to make a hard chose when they had to euthanize the twenty four dogs that were in the shelter.
The director of the animal shelter Cheryl Schnider said: The bad thing about distemper is that its easily spreadable, the good thing is that the virus is easily killed just by routine sanitation. The problem is we really don't know where the outbreak originated, whether it was with just a few dogs or with others because some dogs show very minimal symptoms and they could have had it and gotten over it and we would have never known.
It's sad when something like this happens and all the poor dogs had to be killed.

The Puppy Only Wanted Some Love
You know times are getting bad when an animal shelter that has been around close to twenty five years said that they are unable to take in anymore dogs. The Keysborough Animal Shelter in Australia has been overwhelmed with so many dogs being dumped off that no turn away policy has been changed.
Then you have the dog snatchers over in Fort Wayne, ID who went for the money dogs, when they took an Italian Greyhound, A Chiweenie and an English Bulldog. So you wonder why someone would do this when there are so many dogs just sitting in the shelters. You would be surprised to know that there are many of these expensive dogs just waiting to find a home.
Well it looks like the Humane Society has done it again when they got the endorsement of forty five pet stores in the Chicago area to stop selling puppies in their stores.
Now, how great is that to help put a stop to some of these puppy mills. This brings the new total up to four hundred and fifty stores that pledged to be puppy free.
It all the same when you think about it: people go out and buy a puppy to fill some need not realizing all the work that’s it take to raise a dog, but then after a while they want to sit it on the shelf. Owning a pet is a lot of work that involves a lot of love and time to care for them.
I was reading that Nicola Roberts was given two pugs as a Christmas gift and wouldn’t let them out of her site until she got too drunk at a New Years bash. I’m not saying anything was wrong because her BF was there to take care of the dogs, but to some people they are just a show piece and not a dog.
So who is really the one that has to suffer: It's the dog that you brought saying I will take care of it. Then to make an excuse that you just dump your dog off to some shelter without a care. These animals are supposed to be for life and not just a show piece that you can disregard when you feel fit. You wouldn’t want your parents just dumping you in the street one day. Saying you’re on your own and hopefully someone will adopt you before they put you to sleep. Yes that’s the cold fact of a dog’s life…..
A Special Thanks goes out to all those who work in the Animal Shelters

Was Anybody Really Taken Care Of The Animals
They were supposed to be taking care of the animals in the shelter, not abusing them. So now that the executive director of the Birmingham, AL animal welfare group known as TEARS has been fired, hopefully these animals will now have a chance to a new life.
So here is the fired director saying she is worried that the dogs will be euthanized, when you have to wonder why it got to the point it is now. You don’t have possible charges of animal cruelty hanging over your head if you didn’t do something wrong.
A governance consultant named Allison Black said: All of the agencies agreed from the onset that none of the animals would be euthanized. The veterinarians are taking some of the sickest dogs, and I believe a cat to their private clinics for treatment. The veterinarians are working for free and they are treating the animals like gold.
My question is why did it take so long before anybody took some action to put a stop to the abuse. You tell me that none of the employees said anything. How could you work there and not say something if you were a real animal lover and witnessed the abuse going on.
