Turning away surrender...Thanks Joan, for this post. Turning away surrenders is ridiculous and yes, that is where the focus should be. I did not that surrendered dogs had no place to go in NS. And Heather, my first thought reading the post was that if it hits the pocket books of municipalities, there is a good chance that laws will be changed and I wanted to comment on that, but you beat me to it.silvia4dogshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06754651331524490306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6732797.post-52414593702443951442009-10-10T10:50:03.419-03:002009-10-10T10:50:03.419-03:00I don't get your point, anonymous commenter. ...I don't get your point, anonymous commenter. What skill would that show? I've never known of a herd of dogs have a few errant dogs leave the herd and have to rangled and brought back to the herd, have you? What you're proposing is actually quite ridiculous. I think you should give your head a shake.<br /><br />I understand what you're trying to do though - saying that cruelty Joan Sindenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04457437859009705213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6732797.post-52401211377397641272009-10-10T10:38:53.954-03:002009-10-10T10:38:53.954-03:00May I suggest a new event for these rodeos.

A rider on a horse with a rope chases a 6 month old dog,lassos him jerks him to the ground jumps off his horse pounces on this baby dog and ties his legs. Cruel, I think so and no less so when it is a baby calf rather than a dog.Rodeos are not cruel"Give Your Head a shake".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6732797.post-21161468728080345622009-10-10T07:59:05.035-03:002009-10-10T07:59:05.035-03:00pretty interesting that the Cape Breton SPCA, know...pretty interesting that the Cape Breton SPCA, known for being notorious, was an open admission shelter before the current board of the Nova Scotia SPCA disallowed them to be. Too expensive to kill the animals but now they may be on the streets.

Thank you so much for that articulate post....Joan,<br /><br />Thank you so much for that articulate post. It has been well-needed for a long time! <br /><br />I fully agree with you that the responsibility needs to lie with the muncipalities. <br /><br />If the municipalities were responsible, as they should be, and took this on perhaps we would have little difficulty in getting the laws changed that we need changed to deal with abuse, Wooftalkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12715529365985237242noreply@blogger.com
