About once a year our rescue gets a German shepherd from a shelter who was used as a target. Just unbelievable cruelty. I can't believe it. Our youngest dog is a 1 YO German Shepherd. Bronson follows me everywhere. People who hurt dogs should be required to meet me for counseling. No second meeting required. The counseling would always fix the PROBLEM.

I need to get a bumper sticker that says "Who Saved Who?" When I lost my beloved kitty Kefira back in March, I cried every single day for a month. Then I found Zizu online, drove 3 hours to go get her from a rescue, and no more tears. Zizu is the dearest, most affectionate, smartest little baby girl you could imagine. It was eerie how she instantly took to me. I'm actually thinking she might be a reincarnation of her predecessor Jester, who she resembles amazingly. Hurray for rescue pets!
If I ever encountered some fool doing cruel things to a pet, like the loser who inflicted such horrific injuries on this poor dog, I would advocate for the pet--in kind. Would have no problem at all "educating" them as to the error of their ways.

Damn; sounds pretty good and appropriate.
Just have to lay in a bigger supply of popcorn, soda, and scotch.
Of course I like the old fashioned field radio generators and jumper cables also.

I only have five rescue dogs.
So I have nothing to add.

Animals do form strong bonds. Awhile back there was a story about a goat and a donkey that were rescued but separated. The goat just shut down and wouldn't eat and the donkey just moped. So they brought the donkey to the goat. When the goat heard the donkey as it was being unloaded it came running and excitedly greated Its buddy. Both were well after that.

The spray paint may indicate that Sammie was used as training material for fighting dogs. A lot of missing pets, dogs and cats, wind up that way.

Six years ago I adopted an abused Rottweiler puppy and named him Harley. A few months later we adopted a three legged pit pull puppy and named him Trooper. We got him the day that he had his leg removed and he was about the same age as Harley - about three months. They bonded. When trooper was in pain, Harley would bring him a toy and lay it down in front of him. When the other dogs were horsing around and getting rough, Harley would keep them from stepping on Trooper. They’re still best buddies.
We’ve fostered around 90 dogs and cats and we’ve learned that it’s a good idea to get two animals at the same time. They have to be in quarantine for at least a month and it gives them some company. They usually bond and give each other company.

I could find them again, but there are a lot of them-
Studies that show that the people who abuse animals, even as young children, are at a *MUCH* higher risk of becoming (or being ) sociopaths who kill, maim, rape and torture other humans. That is the reason that authorities are wise to take even the most trivial animal abuse incidents VERY seriously.
Someone who can hurt an animal needlessly is not a human who should be among other humans (or living, in my opinion). I believe the chance of them ever being ‘cured’ is quite a bit smaller than that of pedophiles, even; once someone shows evidence of this they are going to be dangerous until their last breath.
