Indo is a nice little poochie with a smile bigger than his face! And with his jaws thats a mouthfull! I wonder, if Babe had not gotten the sheep to cooperate, would the farmer have eaten him? Bah ram ewe! My tennant adopted Indo - a pit bull after I vouched for them. Indo is a nice little poochie with a smile bigger than his face! And with his jaws thats a mouthfull!

The city-run Animal Services (read: animal control) have a miserable euthanasia rate and are considering cutting back further on their "services". Contrast them with the Toronto Humane Society and various smaller humane and rescue groups in the Greater Toronto Area, and the picture is quite different. THS (which is essentially no-kill) goes to bat frequently and loudly for the bully dogs, and they have many in their care. The pit bull thing is all about votes. Fortunately, groups like the Dog Legislation Council of Canada and Banned Aid are putting donations to use to get the laws turned around. One local site that I particularly like to follow on the subject is Caveat, at http://caveat.blogware.com/ The entire province of Ontario is under a pit bull ban and, of course, Toronto is subject to that legislation.

PETA's opinion on the whole thing figures prominently in the article. Once again, why is anybody still listening to PETA? They are quoted as saying that the money that's going to the Vick dogs would be better going to help other animals who are in danger of being euthanized. Maybe they think the money should be donated to PETA so they can better fund their own euthanization programs? One of MSNBC’s lead stories right now is the Vick pit bulls at Best Friends.
