“Animal rights group kidnappings are becoming more common, and their goal is to take dogs to distant animal shelters were they will be euthanized.”

So - Animal Rights is actually about the animal’s right to be euthanized?

Can someone explain this?

“.......reflects the HSUS agenda of working toward the complete elimination of domestic animal ownership in America.”

Elimination of domestic animal ownership??? Is that really what their goal is?

> In Virginia, HSUS and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals were strongly in support of Senate Bill 1151, which would have mandated the spaying or neutering of any dog taken to an animal shelter for a second time.

As a responsible dog owner, I would be in full support of such a measure. Unless you are a proper breeder with proper breeding facilities, your dogs should be spayed/neutered as a matter of course.

Much ado about nothing.

I have two Basset hounds that pretty much warm the couch all day long...would they still be considered hunting animals. Wally and Daisy for the most part only hunt kibble.

So, should I be worried that a member of our family (he happens to be a schnauzer) will be made off with in the night? That is, assuming he doesn't tear out the throat of the moron trying to do it.

What's the point in this?

IMO, it's already too late. Here's what Sacramento charges just for its annual or tri-annual license fees. That's on top of adoption fees. I'm proud to say all my dogs have been totally illegal. I'm not paying a bunch of liberal retards hundreds and hundreds of dollars on a regular basis just for the privilege of owning a damn dog. B***ards.

I hate to see a dog tethered. I hate going to the shelters and seeing all the dogs that are unwanted or abused. I am all for spaying or neutering unless for legit breeding. I hate seeing how many people take care of (or don't) their pets.

But I am more in favor of our rights not being stepped on or taken away. I have three precious little dogs that are members of our family and there had better not ever be a law that outlaws me having them!!!

Expect more In TX, MA, WI, MI, IN, OH, OK, AZ And NM

The animal rights commies tried sneaking this tho=rough a hearing in Massachusetts several months ago. At the beginning of the hearing the legislative committee looked around the room at the dog breeding/owner mob. They shelved the idea indefinitely. Anger and mobs got their attention.

In Virginia, HSUS and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals were strongly in support of Senate Bill 1151, which would have mandated the spaying or neutering of any dog taken to an animal shelter for a second time. The legislation was killed this week by the Senate Agriculture, Conservation and Natural Resources Committee by an 8-6 vote.

I agree they should spay and neuter the first time!!! Stop with the half measures!

Spay PETA; neuter HSUS: don’t allow uncontrolled breeding.
