I think they need to hear the message loud and clear from all parts of the country that "All dogs need to be evaluated as individuals" and the laws need to change to reflect that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5337563478508563426.post-28372085291962108142009-03-07T13:03:00.000-08:002009-03-07T13:03:00.000-08:00Hey PP,Absolutely right!

And I agree no one is saying that they should just all go out to the public without proper evals.<BR/><BR/>The point also as you said is to eliminate this activity from our society. It doesn't belong there.<BR/><BR/>Getting rescues together to pull together resources and come up with ideas is also helpful here.<BR/>MarthinaOur Packhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15866351499622774333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5337563478508563426.post-50785512539861905462009-03-07T12:06:00.000-08:002009-03-07T12:06:00.000-08:00You know I don`t think some people get what this i...You know I don`t think some people get what this is about.<BR/><BR/>I`m reading comments on some Boards by Pit Bull "supporters" justifying this because there would be no place for most of these dogs to go anyway.<BR/><BR/>That`s not the point as I see it.<BR/>It`s about the message.<BR/>There may NOT have been places for all these dogs to go and there may NOT be places for future rescued dogs,but killing them en masse without evaluations says they were killed due to the fact that they were dangerous.<BR/><BR/>The reason evaluations are SO important is that the perception of these rescued dogs will change even if some,many or all need to be put down because there is no place for them to go.<BR/><BR/>The end result may be the same for the dogs but the REASON will NOT be because they were dangerous.<BR/><BR/>No one is saying that anyone should attempt to place rescued Fight Bust dogs or any other dogs that fail proper evaluations by qualified people.<BR/><BR/>Hopefully in time there will be fewer and fewer Fight Bust or abused dogs that need rescuing as more Fight operations are shut down.<BR/><BR/>It really is about the message.<BR/>They deserve to be evaluated as individual dogs regardless of whether or not they can be absorbed by Recues.<BR/><BR/>90% or some other percentage put down because there is no place for them to go is a very different message than 100% put down because they were dangerous.<BR/><BR/>That`s the way I see it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
