This a true story but i will change certain facts to protect those involved. A USARMY soldier came back from Iraq in 2005. He was an infantry with 82nd Airborne division. He bought some land in the country for his family and his dogs. He purchased 12 acres of land so he would have plenty of space and plenty of room for his animals and children to roam. He and his wife had 5 dogs of their own and 3 young children. Knowing his time in the army was up he began to make plans to settle his family, but his unit was due to head back out to Iraq. When news arrived of future deployment, fellow soldiers began to look for accommodations for their pets. Knowing he was leaving the military he offered to help.
Those who owned pit bulls and rottweilers found it very hard to find someone to keep them for a year. This soldier offered to hold 15 pit bulls or rottweilers for owners until they came back asking only for dog food and vet bill money should the need arise. He kept constant email contact with the owners and update on their health. His wife took weekly pictures of the dogs and emailed them to their owners. For six month the young family live in their dog farm out in the country enjoying life. That was to end abruptly.
One day a neighbor came to the house and told them they had too many pit bulls and asked were they fighting these dogs.He simply stated that they where holding the dogs for soldiers abroad. The next week another neighbor does the same except this woman stated that she was a volunteer animal cruelty investigator(whatever that means). For the next month the local police where sent out to the property with reports of dog fighting and animal cruelty and neglect. Each time the police left petting all the dogs and saying how nice it was that someone would do such a thing for his fellow soldiers. Thankfully the local law enforcement came to know the dogs very well. Still this did not stop the naysayers.
More calls came in and the soldier started to see that people where coming in and out of his yard feeding and vaccinating his dogs and leaving him notes telling him they did so. Dogs by the way who had already been vaccinated and where now over weight and had regular diarrhea caused by the mixing of food. In the meantime the rumor around town is that there is a dog fighter in town and his is cruel to his animals. Something should be done, and done it was.
The soldier came home from work to find all 20 dogs dead or dieing, poisoned by ant-freeze. The scene was right out of the Humane Society of the United States' killem-for-their-own-safety playbook. Every dog full grown and puppies where killed. 20 dogs dead and dieing in plain view of those who drove the country road, not one report called in to local law enforcement. Not one complaint from a single neighbor, not one out cry of negligence, cruelty, or abuse. Nothing but smug indifference at a mission accomplished. And the cracking sound of the defeated but proud soldier's heart desperately breaking for letting his brothers and sisters in arms down. Where were the people who were so worried about the dogs well being and safety? 7 soldiers came home later that year to graves of their beloved pets instead of the companionship. Companionship needed to recover from the destruction of war. Graves dug with the blood, sweat and honorable tears of a soldier and paid for by the donations to the Humane Society of the United States and their like that post such poisonous and inflammatory information that creates witch hunts that hurt those who have sworn to defend even those who would take away their own freedom.
To the soldiers who lost their animals i salute you.

Humane Society just lies to lie.
The Humane Society of the United Stated has stated that barrels used for housing is now signs of dog fighting. The 80 gallon drums.

What we have to understand is that this is simply an opinion that is not based on any facts. To say that only Pit bull owners use barrels as houses and a step further say dog fighters, is morally irresponsible when i found these sites all on the first page of Google by typing in "plastic barrel dog houses". Now are you telling me that a multi-million dollar company, I'm sorry non-profit,(even though non-profits cannot endorse candidates like HSUS did this year) does not have a research staff member who can make sure these statements being made in courts and on TV are accurate. They may want to explain further why people use these plastic barrel houses.
If you have ever owned a large breed of working dogs you know how quickly they can destroy a dog house wether they are plastic or wood. Many use plastic barrels because the have multiple house chewing dogs and because they are cheaper and very very durable. They are also water proof and most dogs love them because of the hummock like bottom. Now like anything else, there are right was and wrong ways to do these things. Humane Society of the United States Pit bull expert shows a picture of a dog that died 40 years ago and states this is the incorrect way to keep a dog. The picture was of an old dog named Texas who was on an old style chain and metal barrel back in the mid 60's. Not an 80 gallon drum . Now come on people. I could show pictures of German Sheppard's attacking children in the same time frame. Would that be a valid depiction of today? No it would not. Back to my point. There are right and wrong ways and there are old ways.
If you have a dog house that is not well maintained, or clean, or safe it does not matter what kind of house you use it is bad for your dogs. The Humane Society and their experts only show the worst case scenario of anything. They show bad pictures of dogs with bad owners and use the biggest paint brush and use the broadest stroke to paint every owner the same color. I have shown you sites that took me 3 minutes to find. With pictures of people properly using these types of dog houses. 3 minutes people. Now i understand hearing someone has a dog living out back in a plastic barrel may sound bad, if that is all you say. Funny thing is Wayne Pacelle himself stated “I don’t have a hands-on fondness for animals…To this day I don’t feel bonded to any non-human animal. I like them and I pet them and I’m kind to them, but there’s no special bond between me and other animals.”, quoted in Bloodties: Nature, Culture and the Hunt by Ted Kerasote, 1993, p. 251. And thats all he said. I can't understand how this man or the business he represents can possibley comment on what is or is not good for someone else's dogs.
You can take any dog house in the biggest yard in the world and not do your part as an owner and you will have the most miserable animal on earth. Focus on the responsibility as owners. Reward those who do well with what they have. The Humane Society prefers to destroy those who did the best for their animals with what they had. They made do with the tools they had. They found a way. They found the American way. The Humane Society of the UNITED STATES feels the American way which they named themselves after, is just not good enough.

Animal rights Americans wronged.
Does breaking the law in the name of an animal make the law wrong? Does that make society ignorant for making such laws? Are the founding fathers wrong? Sure there have been additions and tweaks to the constitution such as the freeing of slaves and Row v Wade, but these where issues that where not present or relevant in its drafting. Dogs have been around since the beginning of time. Are soldiers wrong for fighting for what this constitution and our country stands for. Well if the Humane Society of the United States is right. Then all of these people are wrong.
The Humane Society of the United States or the HSUS this year alone has killed 200+ animals. Simply for being American Pitbull Terriers. The manager and Director of the Humane Society's Animal Fighting issues is John JP Goodwin. This man is high school drop out. He once attempted to be an expert in a court case in which a county that he "advised" was being sued. Under oath he stated to the judge and all present that he was a high school drop and never completed high school. We will come back to this point later. He also stated that his knowledge in dog fighting was gained reading books and browsing the web. This in itself is ASTOUNDING. I am sure every Ph. D and Veterinarian in this country is glad to know that a high school drop out who read a few books with the time left over from his powerful dungeons and dragon quests, was being considered an expert on animals. Thank god the judge felt the same way. He agreed with the plaintiff's lawyer that a high school drop out with no law enforcement or animal physiological education(or any other kind) could possibly lend any educated information.
This man John JP Goodwin, has been responsible for the seizure of countless number of dogs from the homes of numerous American Pitbull Terrier breeders. These breeders on average range from 60-70 years old. The "expert" information lended to law enforcement from the HSUS's debunked expert has led to the death of the animals of these breeders. Now understand not one, not one, single, breeder has been to trial. Every animal they owned to include fish have been taken and most have been killed. Because the Humane Society does not believe in what America was founded on. Even if these breeders win in court they have already lost. Their life's work has been destroyed. The HSUS says that they can guarantee based on expert knowledge that comes from a forensics veterinarian the only of her kind and slew people who have never bred or raise a dog or a dog of this breed, oh and a high school drop out. I would say that with evidence like that a trial would be in order before I'd believe these experts.
Still it goes further. You have John Goodwin teaching classes to law enforcement, lawyers and judges on how to spot a dog fighter. Lets break this down. You have a detective with 4+ years of college, a lawyer and a judge both with 10+ years of high education being taught by a high school drop out. Is this America where we teach our children to do thier best so the can rise above the rest. Well the rest is teach about dog fighting! Desiree Bender the Humane Society watchdog in Arkansas tell police regularly that perfectly legal devises are signs of dog fighting and enough evidence for an arrest. Are you ready for the other shoe to drop? Well duck because i am going to throw it at you. Desiree Bender sent multiple alleged dog fighting dogs to Diane Jessup at http://www.workingpitbull.com/ . The same things HSUS is having people arrested for their friend in arms uses daily. IS THIS AMERICA????!!!!
So i will end my inaugural post to this new blog with this. In America society was based on the fact that hard work and knowledge will pave the way to everything. But instead some how we have people who never bred or raised dogs at all telling officials whats best for these dogs. A high school drop out has the power to imprison a knowledgeable and respected breeder, because the dropout's opinion and reality differ. Last but not least the Humane Society publicly and shamelessly degrade breeders for things they know to be false and in fact take part in themselves. This is the Humane Society of America's idea of America. They are right and The forefathers, our citizens, our soldiers and our hearts are wrong.
