This post is precisely why I love Misanthropic Shiba. I laugh myself silly, not just because it’s funny, but because I’m convinced that Ziva is related to Tierce. They think too much alike.

Comment on Whistler Sled Dog Massacre: Part 2 by kara middleton

Hi –
This is again a timely discussion, since the new Sled Dog Code of Practice came out last month – and is disappointing in many ways. Tethering is still not probibited. And neither is the “euthenasia” shooting of healthy dogs.

Also: I’ve read of similar irrepsponsible “goings-on” during the last Iditarod. Pregnant dogs, dogs in heat — . We have to take a stand for a better code of practise for the dogsledding industry – and more spaying/neutering in general. Thanks for your blog!

Comment on Reading ‘Confessions of a Pet Store Employee’ by Pam

I had pretty much the same reaction, though it sounds like their pups were more local in origin, and not shipped in from the big Hunte Corp mills. That doesn’t excuse anything, but it sounds as though they weren’t getting in a slew of sick pups.
Not everyone has the luxury of leaving a job; and if Pet Store Employee had left the job out of righteousness, someone else would have taken her (?) place, and may not have looked out for the dogs as much. After all, the blog is named “Confessions of a Pet Store Employee”, not “Hooray for Pet Shops”.
I am reminded of a line from Gene Wolfe’s excellent sci-fi book “Shadow of the Torturer”. The protagonist lives in a shadowy sort of world, and belongs to a guild that tortures people for the government/rulers. But they have high humanitarian standards and ethics of their own. One day he asks his master:” Why do good people do this?” And his master replies; “Would you rather it be done by anyone else?”
Definately food for thought. (Though I would rather see a ban on selling dogs and cats and parrots in pet shops!)

” However, I don’t believe that the fact that some rescues are too strict, poorly and/or unethically run means that pet stores are somehow doing something ‘right’ by providing badly bred puppies to ignorant buyers.”

Comment on Family calls for dogs to be banned in public parks after dog attacks by The Misanthropic Shiba

First, I am scratching my head as to why you are choosing to “post-mine” a nearly 2 year old thread. As far as the Internet is concerned, this subject died a natural death in May 2010.

Second, if you want to discuss a subject coherently, please ensure that your commentary is broken up into paragraphs and correctly spelled. Text-speak has no place outside of a mobile phone and certainly does not encourage people to take you or your comment seriously.

Third, while I realize that this was a traumatic situation for all involved, my original post is based on the news story cited, where it was stated that the family was seeking to have all dogs banned from city parks. This is the only item that made the story newsworthy for the purposes of this blog.

If it is the case that this was inaccurately reported by CTV.ca, by all means, post the retraction of the statements,

“Her family is now calling for dogs to be banned from public places.”

“You don’t get people taking their dogs to the mall and stuff like that and you don’t get dogs going to the schools, so why any other public outing place?”

I do not even know how I ended up here, however I assumed this submit was once good. I don’t recognise who you might be but definitely you are going to a famous blogger in case you are not already Cheers!
