Note: The HSUS along with the API. ALF, and PETA are the common enemy of all pet owners, reptile keepers, and America as a whole. It matters not which animals they target as the bullseyes are squarely on all the backs of the keeper and the kept!
"The Humane Society of the United States has mounted a huge campaign to raise money to care for the dogs rescued from Michael Vick's dogfighting ring. The plea comes complete with a heartbreaking picture of one of the injured dogs. (Not surprisingly, studies have shown that people donate more when shown a picture of or told a story about a single animal needing help. HSUS is very clever at fundraising.) But before you contribute, please note:
1) There is a disclaimer in fine print at the bottom of the form which says your donation may be used for other HSUS programs and may not be used to help the dog fight victims.
2) There has been no accounting for the nearly $20 million HSUS raised for the Katrina dogs and cats. The organization is under investigation by the Louisiana Attorney General for their handling of that situation. http://tinyurl.com/25avhp
3) HSUS has NO shelter. It is a corporate office building in Washington DC. It is supposedly "overseeing" the care of the dogs that were seized from Vick's house, but we don't know where the animals are, Will the shelter actually providing their care receive all the donations this campaign generates?
4) There is no reason to believe that your contributions will go to help the dogs seized from Michael Vick or any other dogs or cats. HSUS spends most of its money on legislative efforts to make dog breeding impossible and pet ownership more difficult, more expensive, and more dangerous and someday, when they reach their goals of spaying and neutering all pets, there will be no dogs and cats in this county. Only those few who are willing to go underground and puppymillers who import them from outside the country will have pets to sell at great prices greatly shrinking gene pools and producing pets with even greater genetic problems then even the puppymills of today.
5) HSUS claims its servers crashed from the response to their first appeal for money for these dogs, yet they are still out there beating the drum for more money, still claiming more is needed for the Vick dogs.
And if you are still considering writing that check, read the following quotes from Wayne Pacelle, president of HSUS- "I don't have a hands-on fondness for animals...To this day I don't feel bonded to any non-human animal. I like them and I pet them and I'm kind to them, but there's no special bond between me and other animals." quoted in Bloodties: Nature, Culture and the Hunt by Ted Kerasote, 1993, p. 251.
"We have no problem with the extinction of domestic animals. They are creations of human selective breeding." quoted in Animal People, May, 1993.
When asked if he envisioned a future without pets: "If I had my personal view, perhaps that might take hold. In fact, I don't want to see another dog or cat born." Wayne Pacelle quoted in Bloodties: Nature, Culture and the Hunt by Ted Kerasote, 1993, p. 266.
Where are the millions in contributions they already receive every year? If you have money to contribute, please send it to your **local** shelter. Donations received by local shelters do help animals. The money sent to HSUS does not."

what's ironic is that suspected fighting dogs are always put down. when they can PROVE the dogs were for fighting or have ever been involved, they'll kill every single one of them.

You are so right. I was invited to the SC Association of Pit Bull Terriers this past Saturday. What a noble and inspiring breed of animal. A great show, loving, loyal, and friendly pitt bulls. It always amazes me that the eco-terrorists prosper financially with so much truth available to the public! Best regards. Roark

This is great information to pass on to people who have a genuine caring attitude for animals in general who might fall for these bandits' advertising ploys.
Thanks for sharing it, Roark.
