Just one litter ..show them this video

[flip195]

As shocking and sad as this video is I believe every single person should watch it.
Next time someone tells you they want their pet to have just one litter show them this video.

This video is so hard to watch. You are correct, everyone should watch it. There is nothing in this world more sad than a loving animal which has to be euthanized. There is nothing in this world that relieves the pain I have from all this death. Why, why, why! I am in tears. Not because I am not aware but because I feel so helpless as one person. Spaying and Neutering your pet should be the law. Breeders should have to get a license and be monitored by AKC. There should be very tight restrictions for those that want to breed. Watching a puppy and kitten being euthanized is intolerable to me.

Mary,

Although I couldn't see it, I totally agree with you. The killing of puppies and kittens is intolerable to me too!!

Thanks for the reply. I am just trying to stop crying from that video. I have been fully aware of this situation for some time. It is just such a hard reality for me(I mean, I REALLY have a hard time with it). I have such an issue with pet overpopulation.

I am also involved with cat rescue ...if you can visit www.savethekitties.com, there are some kitties up for euthanasia on this site too. Bottom line, kitties and puppies are dying everyday and everywhere because of people.

This is the biggest tragedy I have ever known.

i couldnt see the video. i was secretly wishing i couldnt. i believe that if i could have seen it , i would not be very happy which is wh it didnt work. im a believer int hat sorta thing. this poor kitties.

That was heartbreaking watching all of those dogs/puppies being euthanized. I am so happy the shelters out here are no kill. The only ones that euthanize are the SPCA and Animal Control. All of the others will keep the dogs until they're fostered or adopted.

i got 2 minutes in and i started to cry...those poor dogs and cats!!

[Lori Jordan]

That is unreal im more mad than anything right now i cannot believe i even finished watching that crap....what is the point to putting puppies down? and the way they didnt have enough heart to gently place the dogs where ever they were taking them they threw them and draged them by one leg even though they were passed on they probably broke there legs...i have not seen anything like that in my life and i hope not too ever again...i'm glad all our pets here wont ever have to go through that that is not HUMAN for someone to treat an animal like that there ANIMALS and should die a very crucial death!! i have nothing else to say about that .that is just wrong

I couldn't watch! I tried to, but as soon as I saw the faces I,had to stop!
So very sad the world we live in.

While I understand the intent of the video, it angers me just as much to see animal lovers unilaterally label euthanasia as 'murder' and 'slaughter' done by 'puppy-killers'. It really galls me, having had to make the heart-breaking decision to end much-loved pets' lives. The video never made any attempt to advocate getting your pets fixed, adopting or fostering shelter animals, or donating money or your time to help any of these animals. Don't exploit these animals' dying breaths without at least trying to offer some constructive ways to help prevent this problem.


ETA: I think videos of this nature are probably better off in the Dog House forum.

Wow! That was so disturbing I cant belive they drag them by the legs and stuff!!! UGHHHHHHHHHHhhhh

I have a problem with that too. Pet overpopulation is not Animal Control's fault, nor is it LA's mayor's fault. It is irresponsible owners and breeders.

This video is very heartwrenching. Watching animals become lifeless will never, ever become easy, even in a dog or cat that is very sick and unhappy. However, for me the most heartbreaking part was how their bodies were treated. I know that not everyone feels this way, but I think they should be treated with more respect. Being tossed and drug around is not easy for me to watch.

I've seen more of my share of euthanasias as a volunteer at the Dearborn Animal Shelter, when I lived in Michigan, as well as working in animal rescue in both CT and MI.

[critter crazy]

OH MY GOD!!!! I cant stop crying!! that is just so sad!!! I understand that unfortunately due to human stupidity that some animals need to be put down, because there just isnt enough homes for them all!! but the way they were dragging them about was just horrid!!! I had to put my baby boy Zeus down last x-mas and it was heart wrenching, but it was the right thing to do to end his suffering from cancer. I just cant bear to see it!! I forced myself to watch this and now i am severly regretting it!! So many memories are jsut tearing me apart!!!
