W. T. F./Whoo Hoo Wednesday

September 5, 2012 By Jodi

Please note this post is not meant to make light of the deeds described here, only to make fun of, ridicule, bully and just plain beat the shit out of the idiots who commit these stupid acts.

I’m chock full of WTF this week.

It’s Time To Ban Pit Bulls In B.C.- B.C.

Another region calling for  BSL.  Naturally they choose a picture of a pit bull that looks about ready to attack for the editorial.   The dog could be reacting to a freakin bear, but that wouldn’t make a difference to these ignorant fear mongers.

When are people going to stop focusing on the dogs and start focusing on the people who abuse and exploit them?

Maybe when they come for their cocker spaniel, because all other breeds have already been banned?

Rogers County Dog Dragged To Death – Winganon, OK

How do you even write about something this horrific?

The sheriff’s office has completed their investigation and apparently has been approached by someone and they now have a person of interest.  The case has been turned over to the District Attorney’s Office.

I hope they find this person and fast, before anymore dogs get hurt.  I’m thinking a bully beat down is just too damn humane for the asshole that did this.  I vote for tying them up by their feet and dragging them behind a truck, oh and then shooting them for good measure.

PETA

PETA’s reached a new low lately.  This photo was posted on facebook and apparently is in response to a No-Kill Shelter’s statement that they would have to start euthanasia due to severe over-crowding.

You can read the entire article here.

I’ve never been a big fan of PETA myself, in fact just recently I received a donation form from them.  It was a questionnaire and I had it almost completely filled out until I realized it was from PETA.  I actually wrote a line stating I would love to donate money for that particular cause, but certainly not to them.  I then asked them to remove my name from their mailing list (I’m still not sure where they got it) and actually put a stamp on it and sent it.

I’m going on record to suggest they change their acronym to People for the Euthanasia/Termination of Animals.

Hey PETA, YOU SUCK.

Seriously, how can people make a difference when assholes like this are continually undermining efforts?

Whoo Hoo

Dog missing after fatal Montana crash found, Missoula, MT

Quite truthfully I never heard this story until 2 Brown Dawgs posted on facebook that she had been found.  Apparently she had escaped the vehicle after it was hit by a drunk driver, and had been on the run for 26 days, before finally being captured by a local woman.

Bella, while a bit on the thin side appears to be in good health otherwise, she will be reunited with her family soon.

And finally, since I’m a little light on the Whoo Hoo section, I thought I’d leave you with this.

Whoo Hoo Wednesday

August 29, 2012 By admin

I really struggled with this WTF post

Shelter operator charged with 10 years in prison for animal cruelty and theft, Ft. Pierce, FL

Seriously this one should probably go in the Whoo Hoo section, I mean really the piece of crap is in jail and I’m sure she’s getting her bully beat down in the there.

I do feel so very sad for the person who entrusted her with their money.  Isn’t there some kind of trust that administers that type of thing?

Finally, after sitting at my computer for half an hour, drifting over to facebook, typing, erasing….lather, rinse, repeat I decided to bag the WTF post in favor of some inspiration instead.

Whoo Hoo

Victim of His Own Myth: Leo

Someone posted the link to this on facebook, I was drawn to read it and was so impressed with John Sibley and his approach to Leo, and the fact that he actually took the time to give this dog a chance when no-one else would.

I think it’s a great reinforcement that sometimes all a certain animal needs is the right person to make a difference in their lives.

It reminded me of a cat my mom had, named Stevie.  He was a big, orange striped tiger that had been de-clawed by his previous owner.  He was a very shy cat when he came to live with my mom and initially spent a good portion of his time upstairs in a spare room.

After two or three days of going over and not seeing him I finally sought him out.  I found him in the room curled up in a chair.  I walked over, knelt down and wrapped my arms around him, giving him a big old kiss on his noggin.

After that anytime I went over and he heard my voice he would come running from wherever he was to greet me.

A few days after I brought Sampson home he got out of the house and never came back.  We searched the neighborhood calling and calling for him and even put an ad in the paper, but we never found him.  I do hope someone picked him up and gave him a good home.  He deserved it.

I loved that cat.

Talk about inspiration, this little guy puts a smile on my face, just goes to show if you have a heart like a dog, you can do anything.

WTF/Whoo Hoo Wednesday

August 22, 2012 By Jodi

Please note this post is not meant to make light of the deeds described here, only to make fun of, ridicule, bully and just plain beat the shit out of the idiots who commit these stupid acts.

W. T. F.

Well believe it or not, there were two WTF’s at Stone Manor this week and they both happened yesterday!

Hubby was outside when I got home.

I looked up as I pulled in and saw Sampson run across the lawn to greet me.  Sampson loves to be out when his Dad is working outside, Delilah who can’t be trusted to stay in the yard, greeted me from the balcony.

I love when Hubby is home when I get home because it means he can prepare the dog’s food and start supper while I get an early walk in.

I asked Hubby to prepare their food,  while I went and changed into my walking clothes.

The dogs were intently watching Dad chunk the roast.

A big WTF goes out to the canines at Stone Manor.

I jingled their collars and was ignored.

WTF?

I’m the one who takes you for a walk every, single day and you ignore me for a hunk of beef?

Where’s the love man?

Hubby’s the brunt of the second WTF.

I reached down to put Sampson’s collar on and realized he didn’t have his ID collar on while he was outside!

WTF?  I said to Hubby, he was outside without a collar?

Guess what that a-hole said?

Unlike you, I have faith in him.

News flash: I have faith in him too muther f*cker, you know why I have faith?

Because I’m the one out there walking and working those  dogs every day of my life.

Don’t ever imply I don’t have faith in my dogs.  That just might earn you a night or two on the couch.

What kind of idiot lets their dog outside without a collar?

The idiot who lives with me. 🙁

WTF/Whoo Hoo

Injured Dog Rescued From Mountain.

In last week’s WTF post Missy the German Shepherd’s story made the WTF portion of the post.  Technically while it was horrible, the fact that a group of strangers came together to save her should have been a big WHOO HOO!!

I’m still on the fence about this one, only because after abandoning his dog, this jack wagon now wants his dog back.

I have a saying and it goes like this, “You can blame your parents for the first eighteen years of your life, after that you need to own your own shit.”  Yes you can quote me.

I’ll give him credit, the guy owned his shit.

And I’ll own mine, I still haven’t read all the threads on the hiking forum, but I have read this article.  Apparently the guy says he did try and get the dog down the mountain and did call 911 but was told that rescue teams only went out for humans.

I believe that.  But I also believe that there were other options available to him and that he didn’t put forth the effort that one of us would have put forth.

I get that not everyone knows about the great dog resources and support available by social media, but you have to be living under a rock if you haven’t heard ABOUT social media!

Come on!  Women have been reunited with their lost children on Facebook!!

He messed up, he messed up bad.  He admitted it.  He wants his dog back.

Sorry Charlie, only the best tasting tuna gets to be Starfish.

Whoo Hoo

Whew!  My really bad WTF for this week turned out to be a Whoo Hoo!

My dear friend Donna, from Donna and the dogs posted this on my facebook page.

Three Dogs Tied to Ohio Railroad Tracks, One Survives.

I read the post with a sick feeling in my stomach and then tried to get it out of my mind until it was time to write the post.

Quite honestly, even though I read about this kind of stuff all the time, it still just boggles my mind how cruel some people can be.

If you really don’t want a dog, then please just bring it to the pound.  Even if they end up putting it to sleep (it sucks, but it’s reality) at least it’s humane.

When I sat down to write the post I did a little googling to see if maybe they caught the ass-clown who did this and I found this article.

Cleveland police say story of 3 dogs tied to Tremont railroad tracks wasn’t true.

What a freakin relief!

Although I worry now that someone has put the idea out there that some other a-hole won’t attempt to do the same thing. 🙁

Thankfully this week’s WTF/Whoo Hoo didn’t leave me feeling to down in the dumps.  How was your week?  Anything you’d like to share?
