Did you hear about the guys who decided to play football or something with some lady's dog? I just read an article about that. The couple found some men surrounding their dog, and the men decided to kick the dog like a football 30 feet into the air. The dog was a 17 year old yorkie named Gizmo. Now because of what happened to Gizmo, they're trying to make animal cruelty into a felony. One of the men faces 5 years in prison and a huge fine.

Those people were absolutely sick, and I'm not even a dog person, but I think they were sick. Back in March, I heard a story about these two boys setting a dog on fire. The dog survived, but the boys were arrested. I'm not sure what happened to them, but I think they were jailed.

Animal cruelty... terrible. Anyone who has the heart to do that, obviously doesn't have much of one.

No, the dog died as soon as he hit the concrete. There was a picture with the article of the couple holding a box of the dog's ashes. It's awful to hurt any animal, especially one who's 17. I just put my fifteen year old dog, Aisha, down on April 6th. She had a stroke and kidney failure, and then I read that awful article; I felt even worse. If someone were to kick or hurt my puppy, Isadora, I don't know what I do. I know two wrongs don't make a right, but I'd probably beat the crap out of them.

Poor dog. There was a story in the news a while ago about a man who set his two ferrets on fire and threw them in the trash. A woman rescued them, but ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/253263/images/aKebVqvfXozMvrLoISGi.gif) only one survived. Its name is Quizno.

I hate the thought of animal cruelty. ![:'(](//storage.proboards.com/253263/images/bmKEorKydIUDRidDNwdR.gif) It is upsetting and b-a-d. Anyway, I heard that once these teenagers put a tiny lil baby fluffy cute kitten in this paint container filled with something poisonous. ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/253263/images/aKebVqvfXozMvrLoISGi.gif) The scumbag bastards (The kitty did die too ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/253263/images/aKebVqvfXozMvrLoISGi.gif) ) And no I haven't heard of a story about someone playing football with someone's dog, though it sounds v.cruel. Though I heard on the news a while ago that in a city near us two teenage boys went into a graveyard, dug up some dead person and played football with his/her head. That is slightly moving on from animal cruelty to human disrespect, but whatever, it's still tight

THAT'S ALL DISGUSTING!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT HUMANS HAVE THE HEART OR STOMACHE TO DO SUCH THINGS! My uncle's dog, Sheba (rotweiller ((sp?))) last year died. She was throwing up and was really sick and he took her to the vet and the vet left the room to get something and she died on the table while he was gone. ![:'(](//storage.proboards.com/253263/images/bmKEorKydIUDRidDNwdR.gif)

Last year in the summer holidays we got a 3 week old kitten, and the week after we were going to Sweden for 2 weeks so we left her with my mum's friend, Rebecca, and she said that Anya (my kitten) threw up everywhere and she took her to the vets and she died.
I do like Rebecca, but somehow I don't trust her, even though she's spent like a billion quid on me in her life. She never said WHY Anya threw up ...
