I think the issue of birds of prey and small dogs is becoming more mainstream.... Bunny's breeder even includes a paragraph in her contracts that addresses leaving the animal unattended in open areas outside due to hawks/owls and such.
I couldnt even read the whole article about Gizmo! It just made me sick that someone would/could do that to a small animal! Its disgusting! And I think that by only giving him a slap on the wrist the system is setting him up to commit more crimes in the future.... there is some very high statistic I heard on American Justice that says that the majority of the people that commit violent crimes against humans started with animals! If he's 23 and is killing dogs, then whats next if he isnt punished for committing his first murder??? |
