Saudi Arabia's religious police have announced a ban on selling cats and dogs as pets, or walking them in public in the Saudi capital, because of men using them as a means of making passes at women, an official said on Wednesday.
Othman al-Othman, head of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice in Riyadh, known as the Muttawa, told the Saudi edition of al-Hayat daily that the commission has started enforcing an old religious edict.
He said the commission was implementing a decision taken a month ago by the acting governor of the capital, Prince Sattam bin Abdul Aziz, adding that it follows an old edict issued by the supreme council of Saudi scholars.
The reason behind reinforcing the edict now was a rising fashion among some men using pets in public "to make passes on women and disturb families," he said, without giving more details.

This is an opportunity for those speed seduction web sites. They need to open a special section for Saudi guys that is Koranically compliant but still gets the chicks.
And Saudi chicks must have given the doggie gambit some success, or Saudi guys would not have kept at it, leading to its banishment by the virtue police.
It’s a dog’s life.
The koran calls dogs evil and that they should be killed and never be held as pets.
Do they have produce sections in Saudi grocery stores?
The only problem is that most girls go ga-ga over the little frou-frou lap dogs, so that a guy can't get a manly kind of dog like a Chessie.
Of course, I go ga-ga over Chessies, and Labs, and Boykins, but I work retrievers and I've been married for 31 years . . . .
That just goes to show you how warped they are.
They got it half right, though... cats are the evil ones.
hehe
I do not know about produce sections, but alcohol is not allowed.
This means NO BEER GOGGLES.
What does a Saudi guy do without beer if it turns out there is a good reason for her keeping the burkha on?
All of us should be thankful we do not live there.
Cheers.
Certainly they have paper bags in Saudi Arabia!
I was eating lunch in a restaurant when an elderly man carrying a tiny Yorkshire Terrier strolled by the window. He was constantly being stopped by beautiful young women who cooed over the little dog.
My sister and I went outside to talk to him. He was 83 years old and told me he’d met more women in the six months since he bought the dog than he had in the previous 60 years!
I own an English Pointer and an English Springer Spaniel. I’d love to get a Boykin and adore Chessies! But then I subscribe to Gun Dog magazine, Astronomy magazine, and Traditional Home magazine. Not exactly a normal thing for women to do. LOL!
“The koran calls dogs evil and that they should be killed and never be held as pets.”
I say koranimals are evil and should never be held as pets.
My Siberian Husky would have fought to his death to protect me or one of my family members and a day hasn’t passed since we had to put him to sleep that I haven’t thought of him and missed him. The muslims hatred for dogs is offensive to me. It’s almost as bad as those that hate kids. I can understand people not wanting to have pets because of how much work they are. Hating them though, what the hell for?
My younger dog apparently started out as a Great Dane/Black Lab cross, but grew up to be an 85 lb. Black Lab/Pit cross. Sweetest dog in the world.
Islam has religious, legal, political, economic and military components. The religious component is a beard for all the other components.
Islamization occurs when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their so-called "religious rights."
When politically correct and culturally diverse societies agree to "the reasonable" Muslim demands for their "religious rights," they also get the other components under the table.Here's how it works (percentages source CIA: The World Fact Book (2007)).
As long as the Muslim population remains around 1% of any given country they will be regarded as a peace-loving minority and not as a threat to anyone. In fact, they may be featured in articles and films, stereotyped for their colorful uniqueness:
United States -- Muslim 1.0%
Australia -- Muslim 1.5%
Canada -- Muslim 1.9%
China -- Muslim 1%-2%
Italy -- Muslim 1.5%
Norway -- Muslim 1.8%
At 2% and 3% they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs:
Denmark -- Muslim 2%
Germany -- Muslim 3.7%
United Kingdom -- Muslim 2. 7%
Spain -- Muslim 4%
Thailand -- Muslim 4.6%
From 5% on they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population.
They will push for the introduction of halaal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature it on their shelves -- along with threats for failure to comply. (United States).
France -- Muslim 8%
Philippines -- Muslim 5%
Sweden -- Muslim 5%
Switzerland -- Muslim 4.3%
The Netherlands -- Muslim 5.5%
Trinidad & Tobago -- Muslim 5.8%
At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islam is not to convert the world but to establish Sharia law over the entire world.
When Muslims reach 10% of the population, they will increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions (Paris -- car-burnings). Any non-Muslim action that offends Islam will result in uprisings and threats (Amsterdam -- Mohammed cartoons).
Guyana -- Muslim 10%
India -- Muslim 13.4%
Israel -- Muslim 16%
Kenya -- Muslim 10%
Russia -- Muslim 10-15%
After reaching 20% expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings and church and synagogue burning:
Ethiopia -- Muslim 32.8%
At 40% you will find widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks and ongoing militia warfare:
Bosnia -- Muslim 40%
Chad -- Muslim 53.1%
Lebanon -- Muslim 59.7%
From 60% you may expect unfettered persecution of non-believers and other religions, sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels:
Albania -- Muslim 70%
Malaysia -- Muslim 60.4%
Qatar -- Muslim 77.5%
Sudan -- Muslim 70%
After 80% expect State run ethnic cleansing and genocide:
Bangladesh -- Muslim 83%
Egypt -- Muslim 90%
Gaza -- Muslim 98.7%
Indonesia -- Muslim 86.1%
Iran -- Muslim 98%
Iraq -- Muslim 97%
Jordan -- Muslim 92%
Morocco -- Muslim 98.7%
Pakistan -- Muslim 97%
Palestine -- Muslim 99%
Syria -- Muslim 90%
Tajikistan -- Muslim 90%
Turkey -- Muslim 99.8%
United Arab Emirates -- Muslim 96%
100% will usher in the peace of "Dar-es-Salaam" -- the Isla mic House of Peace -- there's supposed to be peace because everybody is a Muslim:
Afghanistan -- Muslim 100%
Saudi Arabia -- Muslim 100%
Somalia -- Muslim 100%
Yemen -- Muslim 99.9%
Of course, that's not the case. To satisfy their blood lust, Muslims then start killing each other for a variety of reasons.
"Before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; and the tribe against the world. And all of us against the infidel. -- Leon Uris, "The Haj"
It is good to remember that in many, many countries, such as France, the Muslim populations are centered around ghettos based on their ethnicity. Muslims do not integrate into the community at large. Therefore, they exercise more power than their national average would indicate.

Jake was also a large animal. He got up to 120 lbs at 18 months when the vet suggested backing off his chow some. He lived his brief life at 90-95 lbs and didn’t look heavy at all.
“If you ask me, Islam’s hate of dogs is proof that the religion is evil.
Personally, I think Mohamed and Allah hated them because they’re good judges of character...”
They do seem to have a sense about people. My husky was so smart that he knew the difference between someone who was a threat and someone who wasn’t. To those who were no threat, he was a big, playful teddy bear towards. Anybody ever just walk into our house that he didn’t know, they had better run fast out the door.
You’re definitely on to something.
Call in and support tomorrows hearing that includes Steve Emerson testifying.
Excellent post.
Their history shows that they move in until their numbers are large enough that they can impose their values on the host nation. This doesn’t require being in the majority in a place like the U.S.
It takes one law suit or the threat of one.
That's because dogs are more sensitive to demonic spirits than men and will bark at them.
As someone who today had to put down my 13 year old beagle. I can’t say publicly on this site what I think of the Koran.
Seriously, dogs have always been thought of as more sensitive to the supernatural.
I think one reason that the "dogs are to be killed" in the Koran is that it is satanically inspired. So, kill the watchdogs against supernatural influence, namely dogs.
I used to ride a horse, an ex-racing Quarter Horse, that LOVED beer. He would stick his head out the stall door and whinny if he smelled any (and he could apparently smell it at 50 yards, with the cap still on the bottle).
I asked my vet if it would do him any harm to give him some. When she stopped laughing, she said as long as we didn't set him so drunk that he fell over, it was probably good for his digestion.
So we would wrap a leg bandage or a towel around the neck of the bottle and tip it on up, and Mister would glug a couple of glugs and it was gone!
No Animal Control shelters and almost no rescue orgs (except those dedicated to the breed) will admit to any Pit or AmStaff in their dogs.
I've known some sweet Pits, and some really mean Labs and even a mean Golden (I know it's rare, but it happens).
Nothing I could say will be much comfort, but you have all my sympathy. It's hard to part with them.
I've got two crazy Labs. Would love to have a Chessie but it would have to be the right one. They can be great dogs for an amateur, or they can be Way Too Much Dog, depending on the bloodline and the pup.
If you ask me, Islam’s hate of dogs is proof that the religion is evil.
Personally, I think Mohamed and Allah hated them because they’re good judges of character...
We hired a car and driver to show us the sights of Mexico City many years ago. He stopped at a market the featured a beer driking mule. For 4 Pesos, I set the opened beer bottle on the ground in front of the mule. He picked it up and drained it and would do it over and over...
Thanx much. We’ll see him again at The Bridge.
Mohamed was a just a cat person (an unfortunate tid-bit that has come down through history and bears no reflection on cat people in general - really).
If Mohamed had hated walnuts, the islam would consider walnuts unclean. Scenes from the Life of Brian come time mind when I think of islam.
bump
Then there was “Billy the Beer Drinking Bison” somewhere on the road from Freeport to Houston.....
Send in the Chinese and Koreans and the problem will disappear.
I think that's what happened to me. The Scott County, KY, Humane Society got this really sweet black and white puppy with BIG paws and decided to foster him and adopt him out. They probably suspected he was part Pit but thought he might be part Dane instead and represented him as being part Dane. My problem is he gave his all to me and turned out to be a totally sweet dog by the time it became obvious he was a Pitador instead of a Daneador. Given what a wonderful character he was and is, I couldn't very well destroy his whole life just because of some human error. Now my big problem is keeping him from pushing me out of bed at night.
So what’s the big deal. Just have the religeous police lop off a few heads (of the owner’s, naturally). That will definately stop the practice and give their government a chance to practice what they like to do. MORONS.

A friend of mine has a nice field Lab who is a regular Casanova. Nothing will keep him from the ladies - he goes out windows, over 8 foot fences, etc. etc. There are an awful lot of puppies in the neighborhood who look just like him . . . fortunately he's a good looking dog with a terrific temperament.
One of the downsides of the Danes is that they don't live long at all.
I was looking for a Danedor instead of a Dane because I felt the Lab might help extend a great dog’s life span. Please let me know if your neighborhood Romeo finds himself a Dane Juliet. OMG, my Pitador, who’s under the desk, has just farted!
Yes. Great book.
There’s a boxer in that book with a similar problem . . . .
