It has to be under the waves, and when the time comes, we rise from the deep like a giant sea serpent. After we make our damage, we hide back into the depths. They're well-funded, but we have anonymity and the internet, so we can use this like guerrilla warfare. We cut the legs out from underneath them, then cut off the head. The internet can be used to destroy reputations and bring to light what's in the shadows.<br /><br />Get what I mean?Pumanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1547600777592832280.post-55676601171586185152015-02-19T13:56:10.073-08:002015-02-19T13:56:10.073-08:00Agreed: The civil judgement is a good bludgeon to...Agreed: The civil judgement is a good bludgeon to use against the malicious and irresponsible - print off a copy of that complaint and send it to the owner of every yard barker in your neighborhood.<br /><br />On organization: This "movement" needs a national figurehead, and such a person has not yet emerged. Part of the problem is, every time a grassroots movement emerges, it gets taken over by demented animal rightists and/or dog worshipers who take it in the wrong (but oh so right for them) direction.Animal Uncontrolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01353756918671252887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1547600777592832280.post-25502134394626260692015-02-19T11:29:15.493-08:002015-02-19T11:29:15.493-08:00Animal control agencies hold barking victims to an...Animal control agencies hold barking victims to an unreasonable burden of proof.

Chronic barking is much more common than fatal dog attacks. <br /><br />Speaking as one who has been involved in advocating for victims of these attacks, I have this to say: The attack victim advocacy is WAY better organized than we are. Yes, the pit bull fan is still better organized. And funded.<br /><br />So, what should we do? Get organized -- and fast. That big $500k judgment against a barking dog is a huge game changer for us. Let's use it for all its worth!Your Quiet Neighborhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15865179687268241220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1547600777592832280.post-80847734267026579242015-02-19T04:26:44.968-08:002015-02-19T04:26:44.968-08:00Hi Puma, agreed - being attacked by a "lesser...Hi Puma, agreed - being attacked by a "lesser" dog is NOT a "good" thing, simply that it is not the same thing.Animal Uncontrolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01353756918671252887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1547600777592832280.post-51360834677256635672015-02-18T20:49:48.579-08:002015-02-18T20:49:48.579-08:00Huge breeds kill quickly due to their size. Small ...Huge breeds kill quickly due to their size. Small breeds kill slowly due to their hyperactive boredom. Both create infected bite wounds due to the uncleanliness of their teeth and saliva. No matter which dog you get, it will still be a danger in one form or the other. It's either death by hypertension or death by getting ripped apart. I don't want either poison to be picked, thank you. I like a world of choice, and I choose neither type of dog. Why even have them at all? Why aren't there statistics of chronic barking across the nation? Really, all we hear are bites, but chronic barking is much more common! How many people have gone insane because of the chihuahua next door, or one of those tiny ball sized mixed-bred mutts that look like rats? Be aggressive when getting rid of chronic barkers. Passive-submissive people go crazy because of their don't-do-anything attitude.<br /><br />Too bad nobody of sane mind outside of these forums will understand this.Pumanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1547600777592832280.post-48635874411456516382015-02-18T16:08:50.584-08:002015-02-18T16:08:50.584-08:00St. Bernards can be killers, too.

Most of these people really aren't taking proper care of the dog. Example: the St. Bernard. It is not allowed in the house unless it is unusually cold, it's confined on the small back porch and can't even wander the small back yard. The dog is bored, lonely, under exercised, under stimulated, and desperate for companionship. Why are people permitted to keep an animal in this manner? I can't even complain to animal control unless I have a WITNESS. What other CRIME requires me to provide a witness? If this isn't desperation to NOT do their job I don't know what is.
