My Cousin (Erica Taylor) once told me a story about when she lived in Las Vegas, Nevada. She lived down the street from a man with two dogs, a german shepard and a Chow. She and her friend, Jessie, were once walking by the man's house and heard a dog squealing from inside the house, a week later they found a dog, a gorgeous Chow with cuts on his face, wandering around outside. They called him "Baby Bear" because he looked just like a bear cub. Erica took the Chow in to her house and fed him and gave him water, she took him for a walk and then brought him to each house in the neighborhood (with Jessie) to find it's owner, finally they arrived at the man's house. He threw open the door and the german shephard was barking like crazy, and snarling too. "Oh great, it's you.." the man said when he saw them with his dog. "Excuse me?" Jessie replied. "Get in here you sorry excuse for a dog." Then he slammed the door, right in their faces! A week later they found Baby Bear (who's real name was 'buddy'" wandering around with more cuts over his face and body, they called animal abuse and the dog was brought to a shelter. They were notified a few weeks later that the dog had found a loving family.

If all of us could be more like them, instead of hurting our own animals, we helped animals that were in need of our help, the world would be a better place. So sign this petition! We need you're help, together we can end animal abuse!
