Ferret Master Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 They carry that particular method at the end of the coursing season and it is used mainly for Greyhounds. They buy them buy the lorry load mainly from Ireland and work the poor dogs for a season. If their dog performs well he is hung with his feet just off the ground if not he is hung with his rear paws touching the ground Spanish ******* ****** may they rot in hell. LB I've heard about this. Agreed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cranfield Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 Lets not generalise too much in our comments, I know quite a few sporting people in Spain who do not follow, or support, any of the practises mentioned on this thread. The culling of older hounds and running dogs at the end of the season occurs in many countries that do not have animal rescue centres. It did and probably still does in the UK. People adopting a "rescue dog" is not a normal thing in some countries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its all money mainly, when it comes to racing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cranfield, The Spanish goverment have been petitioned for many years by UK and Irish greyhound protection groups regarding this practice and another one of dumping the dogs, live, in deep pits, yet they refuse to outlaw it or impose any restictions on the greys welfare. A simple bullet to the head would be sufficient. Instead they torture one of the oldest and most noble of all dog breeds. Their actions speak volumes Anyone with the stomach have a dekker at this http://www.pet-abuse.com/cases/6830/AN/ES/ LB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham M Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 What makes me sick is the fact that a couple of years ago we had a media frenzy when it was discovered that Greyhounds in this country were being shot after their usefulness had expired. Whilst I don’t agree with this it is certainly a far better option for the poor dog, although proper euthanasia would be preferable. Makes one wonder why these so called animal rights ***-holes aren’t doing more to stop this. Or could it be that they would get a lot more than they bargained for if they tried their tactics over there. G.M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

v-max Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 I never stated it in my coment earlyer on this but a dog will all ways love you no matter how bad you are but.As i thought or reconed would happen to these dog's after such torcher they would be hard to work with/rehome etc after the abuse they had been give by the hunter's.I have seen some thing's & can handle death of animal's quite well other than that of a dog & am outraged at this & only wish i had won a few mill on the euro lotto to help fund such a nobble & traditional breed of hunting dog.

Axe Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 I was near on sick when I watched the poor dog shaking as the idiot poked his internal organs back in and set about lashing the wound together. Its all down to how we view things differently. I mean, remember the video on the Dolphins and the Japanese, that was horrific but it just shows how ones culture is different from another. But as said, I dont condone it, its just a shame that some do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iantson Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Not my thing a bit sick it's obvious some people of the world treat their dogs as just a tool for their sick games and not a working pet. It videos like that give more ammo to anti hunting groups that wants to tar us all with the same brush and think that's how we all behave.

SAVAGE HMR Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 I can understand the need to take care of dangerous cats when they start killing people and pets but why not just shoot it? It'd be more humane that stabbing it after it was pulled out of a tree and attacked by dogs. Not to mention the dogs that were almost killed to.

Guest The Outlaw Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 **** that for a game of cat and dog. I agree its a bit OTT Good to showthe anti's that we are quite good to our animals and our kills are quick and humane. Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
