Do you not agree that you and Gina both are pushing the "HSUS is changing for the better" meme? "It's all good" is my sardonic way of describing what you are saying...

A dead dog is a dead dog. Nice of HSUS to transport dogs for another organization (which is apparently above criticism) to kill, to accompanying sobs.<br /><br />Of course I don't expect all the dogs to be saved.

Because I tend to think they have a genuine commitment to pitbulls. Individual evaluations do not mean that every dog will pass, and putting some into a "compassion hold" may mean an opportunity for a change in status - otherwise, why waste the foster space? Injections are quicker and cheaper.<br /><br Susannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3536020437295001618.post-12219760290286400332009-07-24T12:11:15.400-04:002009-07-24T12:11:15.400-04:00oh you silly black helicopter-ish hater, you!

Fave comment o' the day!<br /><br />For those interested, EmilyS is referring to this quote from WaPo:<br /><br />Missouri's Humane Society already got a test of what it might take to place the dogs after 10 more pit bulls were surrendered to HSMO investigators working a phone tip the day after the July 8 nationwide raids.

They will NEVER apologize because there's no incentive.<br /><br />According to the starry eyed EmilySnoreply@blogger.com
