We disagree. I eat meat and I love dogs. Dogs are more loyal and loving than people and deserve at least as much compassion as people.Pwns wrote: ↑Tue Apr 30, 2024 8:19 am A decided a while ago I can't get outraged at this if I eat meat. And I don't think anyone else should either. We can't say we can treat pigs and cows badly but not dogs.
I would point out too that some animals are just psychotic the exact same way that people can be. If a dog kills a chicken that's because it's a dog. But if it goes on a rampage like what Noem says then I would wonder about that dog. And I don't buy into this "it's not the breed, it's the owner" nonsense. If you own a pit bill or some of these mean dogs you are playing with fire.
The dog in question was a German Wirehaired Pointer. I don't have a lot of experience with that breed but they were bred to hunt not fight. Part of that hunting is retrieving game.
