"It's exploiting the dog. It certainly isn't fun for that dog to jump out of that plane."

How in God's name do they know? I know if a dog acts like mine when Im filling her dog dish up, she is having fun...

It's exploiting the dog. It certainly isn't fun for that dog to jump out of that plane.

I've noticed that some animal lovers tend to project a lot of their own feelings onto animals, and they like to pretend they have a psychic connection with animals. These animal rights people must be ten times worse in that sense. For all we know, once they take this dog's thrill rides away it could throw him into a serious existential crisis.

My son has a dachshund and he is one little dog that would do anything as long as he is with his daddy he is happy. Yes, he would also love to jump out of a plane.
These animal rights people need to get a grip.

"What we feel is this is cruelty to animals," said Shirley Cram, shelter director and treasurer for the Volunteers for Inter-valley Animals.

Shirley is wasting her organizations resources going after someone who clearly cares for their dog. She's also making her organization sound stupid and misguided, and very likely turning off potential supporters.

What she ought to be doing is going down to the local animal control shelter and saving any one of the dozens, if not hundreds of perfectly healthy dogs who will die becuase they have no home.

But I guess she must have saved every single doomed dog pound pooch by now, since she has time and money to be doing stupid, frivilous things like this.

Now that's an idea!

BTW, are you aware of the prayer ping lists and these threads?

As a famous Haiku poetry writer once wrote in a shortened Haiku verse:

Oh savage Samurai,
Insatiable fleas!
