When you walk down the street do you see cats or dogs that are left all alone with no food?
Do you think that the cat or dog that was abused or thrown out? Well I believe that animal abuse should not be allowed. Animals are just like humans.
If you abuse your dog or cat they could get severely hurt or worse. If you get mad at something most people take it out on their animals. Some animals are verbally abused it means that they get yelled at for everything. Some animals are so small they can get hurt badly if you hit them hard.
My dog Paige she was verbally abused before we got her she was afraid of loud noises, so we would have to go thru the house and make loud noises so she could get use to it.
My neighbor's dog Casper was abused, and now he is afraid of some men. Casper is a small dog he has a bad leg and if you pick him up by that leg he will yelp.

Do you ever see a dog on a hot day in a car with not windows down?
That is another way to hurt your animal. Don’t yell at a dog or hit them. Animals die more every year from abuse and natural causes. Some people don’t know that they are abusing their animal. If you see the animal commercials of them on the streets alone that is true.
My mom’s grandpa had a dog named Tiny. He saved Tiny from a very abusive home. What Tiny did is he
protected grandpa for grandpa protecting him. It is not just dogs that get abused so do other animals like tigers, elephants, and horse.
My mom told me a story about elephants and this guy was dieing the elephant tusks pink, because there is a man that was killing elephants for something in there tusks. The die does not hurt the elephants he is protecting
them. My mom's dad had a horse that he saved from a home. She comes up to people that she trusts and if you tap her she will freak out. The horse name is Sunny. She has marks and bruises all over her still. He saved her, but unfortunately he couldn’t train her to ride. She still lives freely on my grandpa's farm. Sometimes you see animals outside on really hot days. If they don’t have water they could die of the heat. If you want or have a animal you should take care of it. If you're going to buy an animal then you need to get things for it befor you get it. I believe that animals should never get abused. If a human is getting abused then make sure you tell someone about animals to. There are so many stories about animal abuse. When you abuse an animal you feel a power in you and you want to feel it again. This is why I believe that animal abuse should not be allowed.
Pit bull terriers have a long track record of attacks against people and animals. A 1987 study of a particularly savage attack against a child was documented by four doctors in the hopes...
Pit bulls, the most dangerous dog to ever live. People like to train Pit Bulls to fight other dogs until they are either hurt or dead. The owners that train the dogs are usually the ones that make the dog turn out to be vicious and dangerous. “Each year, 1.2 million dogs are euthanized, approximately 40% of whom are Pit Bulls”(Moore). Pit Bulls don’t know better to understand which is right from wrong since they’re being raised up to fight and protect. Pit Bulls aren’t good family dogs due to the power of their strength and that they could attack at any moment.
Dogs have impacted the lives of 44% of American families and homes. People use dogs for much more than just a family friend. Dogs are used for special needs, assisting police, and hunting and tracking. Dogs should be appreciated and never taught to fight or be neglected. Dog fighting is unethical because man’s best friend shouldn’t have to fight for their lives.
Unusual violent behavior can lack of exercise and nutrition. Or a dog's aggression may just simply come from genetics or hormones (“CAUSES OF DOG”). A dog can smell the hormones that human's emotions give off. So if a dog senses that someone is afraid it will try to intimidate that person (“Does My Dog Know”). It is important to stay calm around dogs, especially around the ones who are not familiar with you. Dogs can also sense if someone is afraid through their body language. If a person is moving nervously around
The issue of animal abuse is an issue with a silent voice both in the sense that the victims have no voice and that does not seem a loud enough by the way human voice in support. Eyes are rolled or the channel is quickly changed a commercial comes on with the emaciated dog or cat missing a limb. The issue of animal abuse is more serious than believed to be and it happens for many reasons. The reasons why people abuse animals are:
Of course, if the poor dog is being beaten and tortured soon the dog will react to defend itself. "Susie's Hope", for instance, a movie based on a true story, demonstrates how these stereotypes are perpetuated. Donna the main character, survived a pit bull attack and as a result, had a miscarriage. Neglected and abandoned this pit bull lived approximately two houses down Donna's house. The owner left the dog chain to a tree with no food nor water.
...althy individual, this is a warning.” There are deep psychological issues that lead to violent crimes against people” (cfawr). What is more shocking is that most animal abusers abuse animals for entertainment of both themselves and others, and to show their aggressiveness.
“There can be many reason for animal cruelty, like any other form of violence, is often committed by a person who feels powerless, unnoticed, or under control of others. Some who are cruel to animals copy acts what they have seen or that have been done to them, others see harming an animal as a safe way to get revenge against--or threaten-- someone who cares about that animal”. (“Animal… Statistics”) Concerns towards abusing animals have gone up in the past. Although there are not many cases on animal abuse, many have occurred. Abusers are charged with Criminal Animal Abuse and then sentenced to life in prison. Some animals that are physically abused are sometimes rescued by Animal Control, and are taken it to an animal shelter. However, many shelters have not had the space to keep the animals so the workers would have to put them down (Carol Roach). Researchers have shown that the main animals getting abused are dogs, chickens, horses, and livestock (“Animal...
Animal abuse has been around since the beginning of time. Animal abuse comes in all forms. Just because someone is not hitting animals does not mean that they are not abusing the animal. People can abuse animals by not giving them any food. There is no reason for animal abuse, but people still do it. Some animals are abused for others’ enjoyment. The owners of these animals do not seem to understand that what they are putting the animals through is wrong. The owners have no limits that they will not push the animals to. Even young animals are suffering at the hand of man.
For example, in the golden lion award the lion who was tamed attacked the owner when he gave him his back for a second. In conclusion, pet owners should be held responsible both legally and financially for their pets actions because as stated before they cause fatal casualties. Not all pet are dangerous, but a loose pet is always a dangerous even if it’s a cat. Be a responsible pet owner and buy your pet the correct gear and harnesses to protect others but most important for your pets safety as
“ Owners should be the ultimate source of trust and guidance. Battered dogs instead may cower upon being pet and may get scared of sudden movements.” ( Farricelli.) This quote shows how if a dog isn’t getting mismanaged, then they can be a great joy to have in a home, but if they are getting a swoop on the back or nose, they show some kind of discomfort when they’re with their owner(s). Hitting your dog simply breaks the bond between the two.
Abandoned dogs, those animals left without supervision, reproduce, breed puppies that are also not wanted and are mistreated and neglected. In conclusion, I hope to have shed some new light on just what animal cruelty is and what it consists of. I hope that with this information, people will be more open to what they see. Hopefully this information will cut down on animal abuse and will make people watch out for mistreatment of animals. I hope that people will think twice before abusing animals.
Some people fight their dogs because they want entertainment or they just think it's funny. How could people be that cruel, would you put an end to it if you could?
God was so interest in the welfare of the animals that He commanded Noah to build an Ark big enough to hold two of each kind of animal. In Genesis 1:26 God entrusted us to care for these beautiful creations. Taking care of your pet entails going to the vet, a balanced and nutritious diet, and plenty of exercise. So if you heart goes out the animals that are bred in cramped quarters and exploited for profit. If you cry at pictures and stories of abused animals, then you are an animal lover at heart. You know the importance of taking on the responsibility of caring for a pet. Pass the wisdom on to your children, friends, and neighbors. Everyone should treat animals with care. Animal abuse is a crime; people need to be educated in the responsibility of taking care of their pets.
Many psychiatrists have found that patients with anger management problems can be calmer with a pet around the house. Sometimes, just the feel of a pet in the house can do wonders on the nerves and eliminate certain aggravation. A significant point that has been brought up by animal right activists is that abuse inflicted on animals is, in many cases caused by frustration caused by an outside conflict. Outside conflicts can be caused by work stress, school or relationships.
