.Most people have their dog fixed when a person do not want their dog or cat to breed. And if the dog, per chance, had puppies before it's fixed what would you do?
The last thing most people would do is fling them one by one into a strong river and, from the look on this girls face, enjoy it. What makes someone enjoy flinging live defenceless puppies into a river? There are so many more humane ways to get rid of the puppies but this is just inhuman.
Animal control is really important pets numbers can get out of control really quickly, especially in rural area's, but this has to one of the most cold hearted way of treating unwanted animals. This person is finding enjoyment out of the little pups yelps and how far she can throw them. The fact that someone thought it's okay to the point of recording and posting it online shows the state of mind of this girl and her accomplice are in. Cruelty is not funny.
- WARNING, VERY GRAPHIC
A 6-month-old baby had his testicles chewed off by two large dogs while he was left strapped in his baby carrier alone in a California apartment, CBS2.com reported Thursday.
Carrie McKinney, 22, was visiting her boyfriend Doug Ritchey's apartment and left her son in his car seat on the floor. After leaving the room, Ritchey's two pit bulls tore through the baby's diaper and chewed off his scrotum.
Police said the baby was taken to a local hospital and then to Loma Linda University Medical Center for surgery-but they were unsuccessful in trying to save his testicles.
McKinney could face charges of criminal neglect, and has lost custody of her son temporarily to Child Protective Services. Both pit bulls are scheduled to be euthanized.
animal cruelty is neglect or abandonment - that is, people not providing adequate care for animals in their charge. These types of cases often involve situations where an animal is left without food, water or shelter, or when proper veterinary care was not obtained. In many of these cases, the underlying reason can sometimes be explained by the caretaker's ignorance. This is why many animal control officers and humane law enforcement officers will first attempt to educate the neglectful caretaker, rather than immediately citing them or arresting them.
While ignorance can be blamed in some of these situations, an additional cause that seems to be a major contributor to neglect and abandonment cases is that the pet owner simply does not care. Even people with only the most basic knowledge of animal care can see that an animal has degenerated to the point where it is only skin and bones.
Many times, animals are purchased as pets, and simply forgotten about. Animals in this situation however do not merely gather dust. They are slowly starved or dehydrated to death, literally bled dry due to parasite infestations, or slowly garroted by their own collars.
Active cruelty implies malicious intent, where a person has deliberately and intentionally caused harm to an animal, and is sometimes referred to as NAI (Non-Accidental Injury). Acts of intentional cruelty are often some of the most disturbing and should be considered signs of serious psychological problems. This type of behavior is often associated with sociopathic behavior and should be taken very seriously.
Animal abuse in violent homes can take many forms and can occur for many reasons. Many times a parent or domestic partner who is abusive may kill, or threaten to kill, the household pets to intimidate family members into sexual abuse, to remain silent about previous or current abuse, or simply to psychologically torture the the victims, flexing their "power".
