We should euthanize "ugly" terriers in the US
Why not? We don't give a flying rat's ass about anyone who doesn't make enough to be a good "consumer."

Fuck it. Kill the ugly dogs, and let poor people just sack out under bridges, so we can have icky people to hate, and wonder about their goddamned "bootstraps."

Someone stopped by and was looking at the dogs for adoption. When approaching Danny's pen the comment was made "Look at that ugly dog with that stupid toy in his mouth. He'll never get a home. Should think about euthanizing that one".

1. Danny's a handsome guy
and anyone who thinks otherwise is an idiot or needs to be fitted for glasses.

4. He's a cute doggie.
I'd take him, but I already have a pit bull terrier.

13. I'm not sure what that standard is. He looks really cute to me.
I can't believe that anyone would say such mean thing about him as that asshole at the shelter, but hopefully that person will rot in the fiery pits of hell for an eternity. Starting sooner rather than later, would be great.

Who the hell mocks a dog, and calls their toy "stupid"?

My god, what a piece of garbage that person was.

6. That is a beautiful dog, and whomever the sick bastard was disparaging him...
is the one that ought to be euthanized. A happy dog playing with a toy is one of the greatest things on earth.

An asshole who would say such a rotten thing needs to be put through a meat grinder and fed to the dogs.

18. OK, how so?
How am I a coward? We donate to shelters, and took a stray pretty kitty to a personal foster home today because she couldn't live with our rescue animals where we are living right now?

exactly how are we cowards?

10. Danny's a cutie
but then there is no such thing as an ugly doggie.

Hopefully they didn't let the ignorant creep adopt *any* dogs. He's the one who should be euthanized.

20. Wow, Sally looks almost exactly like my dog Frankie.
Do you know what breed(s) Sally is?

21. I think she is Jack Russell and Dalmation...
Edited on Sat Sep-20-08 08:01 PM by ingac70
because I seen one once and she looked almost just like him, but everyone who sees her thinks she has a little pit bull in her.

She's a big sissy. Somebody dumped her at my sister's house this time last year.

Do you know what breeds your dog is made up off?

***she has gotten more spots since this pic.

25. No, I was hoping you would! Heh. Sometimes I think Frankie might be part JRT
Edited on Sat Sep-20-08 08:10 PM by blonndee
but she's a lot bigger than the usual size. She came from the pound so I really can't be sure. They had her labeled as a pit mix, which looks right, except that she's much smaller-boned than pits. She's almost all white, but she has brown spots on her ears and just a couple of (hardly visible) spots on her skin and belly.



This isn't the best picture of Frankie (lost most of my pics when my old computer died), but here she is looking sleepy and in need of a bath:

26. Sally has black spots and getting more...
and she is small boned, much bigger than a JRT, but much smaller than a Dalmation.

Wow... they look like sisters!

Beautiful!

I've seen mixed breeds with short haired varieties of terrier in them before that favored pits, but I knew darn well they didn't have any in them. That is why I don't think sally has any pitbull in her.

29. Bless you for taking Sally in.
How could anyone dump such a pretty girl? :)

Your description of her sounds just like Frankie, and that picture you posted looks like her when she's excited to see someone or do something she likes. Her ears go back and she gets that eager "please look at me!" look.

I guess the breed mystery continues! About once a year I think I've figured it out, then I change my mind the next time I see a breed that reminds me of Frankie in some way.

22. I can think of a lot of people...
who need "put down" more than that dog. Cheney, Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Hannity (Hannity isn't so ugly - he's just meaner than shit)

When I get rich, I'm gonna buy a couple of these guys for my dog to play with. He'll love 'em to death.

23. i hope you didn't allow him to adopt ANY dog
with a cold attitude like that towards ANY animal, he would probably make a poor pet owner.

24. I love this lil' boo boo.
Edited on Sat Sep-20-08 08:05 PM by chupacabranation
I am playing with him in spirit :)

Let's hear it for happy dogs everywhere!

He will find a happy place FOR SURE. I know it. There is a dog owner for absolutely each and every dog looking for a home; it's all a matter of timing and running into that person.

This little boo boo will be in my thoughts.


:D

31. we are not mutts! We are pure blooded Americans!
When Adam and Eve mated in Florida around say...... 32 B.C....they had several children (couple of bad boys...but, you know---that's jest family stuff)...and then they met some other folks God sent down from Virginia, and a couple of no-accounts from Georgia (that's where the tacky relatives came from, but you didn't hear it from me)...and some of those people moved up North (they became Yankees....we try not to mention them)--- well, anyway...you get the picture. We don't know where you are from, but we are pure blooded Americans from God's Country (the South---hello) and if you are from here, and can prove it like we can...then you should stop by and say "hi" sometime, because we are probably related....

Caw's iffen you ain't and ye don't know that d'aw'g is a three syllable word then we ain't no kin. Heard about them Yankee d'aw'gs, folks say they're blue. Gotta be tough livin with a defigurement like that so I'll stifle my giggles should I ever see or speak to one.

Ow'en, I'm not from the south, check the avatar, I'm a Palestinian.
