The Westminster Dog Show Has Blood On Its Hands
Thu Feb 16, 2012
While Westminster's dog wins, millions of other dogs lose
Not everyone jumped for joy on Valentine’s Day when Malachy, the Pekingese, was named Best in Show at the Westminster Dog Show. Real dog lovers raged. Why? Because a Peke won a beauty contest and consequently tens of thousands of Pekes will suffer a horrible fate. Because it means rough years ahead for Pekinese breeding dogs who are abused in puppy mills and backyard breeding operations. Because thousands of Pekingese will be dumped at the pound when the novelty wears off. The Westminster Dog Show and its parent, the American Kennel Club, the most established of the breed registries, has blood on its hands.

New Port Richey, Florida - It's hard to imagine how anyone would hurt an animal. They are helpless and defenseless. They have no voice to cry out and no one to turn to when things get bad, as they often do.
These days, it seems as though we hear more and more about sickening cases that just make you want to cry.
No one will ever forget the story of Dexter, one of 2 kittens beaten and tortured -- allegedy by a mom and her two kids at a Hernando park. Dexter was severely injured, suffering seizures from the head trauma. The other kitten died the same day of the attack.
