[@etcetraetcetra3173]

I have a suggestion. Instead of a fine or ban for owning a dog for 5 years, the former owners should be forced to live like JD did for how many days he was. Chained up to a radiator, on top of filthy blankets full of their own piss and excrements. See how they like it.

[@rileyaroha3553]

[@maargenbx1454]

JD looks so much like my boi (in the thumbnail) that I had a hard time seeing him in that condition. I know people think of staffies and AmStaffs as ‘dangerous dogs’ but it seems to me that (at least in the US), they’re the dogs most likely to be abused, ill-socialized, and neglected. I don’t know why. Here in the US I think the stigma means these pit mixes are cheap to acquire, so people sell them (often way too young) for cheap cash to people not knowledgeable or financially stable enough to properly care for a dog. I didn’t care much about the breed of dog I had before I got my AmStaff. I was determined to adopt a dg out of the shelter, and since most other breeds are removed by rescue organizations, the shelters are full of this type of dog, so I ended up with one. He’s a perfect gem, and I’ve since met many other wonderful pit mixes - I doubt I’ll ever get any other type of dog.

[@amandamiller6995]

Dear Lord in Heaven 🙏🙏🙏 if ever there was a case where you should pursue a criminal charges, Rex's owner should be the one you should be the ones you send up to the fullest extent of the law!! JD as well! I'm all about getting them into a good home, but we have to take the legal system AND make it clear these are criminal cases! Me and my pup are sending these guys warmest regards from Greensboro NC USA! Keep up the good work you guys never give up!

[@jaunabeeks3572]

I've been rescuing animals for a lot of years, and I'll never understand how people can be so rotten to something that loves you so much.

[@debscherer9902]

I agree totally with all of the comments that you've received previously and people that have done this kind of thing should be locked up and throw the key away since I'm not allowed to say anything negative . I do have 1 more thing to say I love all animals big & small whether their mine or not very very much.......thank you.

[@pauladowning5592]

Agreed 👍 All my dogs were rescued by me from horrible condition.... with love and vet care, they are thriving and give me so much love!!! Bless you!

[@anneselby2293]

I think it helps if the love is reciprocal. The problem is that dogs are resource hoarders and their human is a resource to them so mutual trust between animal and human is imperative. And should come well before love. That trust should be build on and constantly reinforced. Dogs are not independent creatures and sometimes with a certain kind of person, the dog can trust and love that person even if the person reciprocate with ill treatment. It's very sad, but it's very like Stockholm syndrome where the abused adores the abuser.

[@jimsavage147]

I think the answer is ignorance and fear. Even with cruelty, the act very seldom has anything actually to do with the dog, but is more about the person. Any dog can be made vicious as well, and they don't get therapy, they get put down.

[@stacysatterfield2154]

I don't either. And despise people who abuse their innocent pets and children. Dog Rescuers are heroes.

[@brendamills13]

poor confused pup....barking aggressively & wagging his tail.....so grateful he was found.....

[@iffracem]

Tail wagging isn't about happy, it's about being stimulated and excited. Too think they only wag to show happiness is why some people get bitten.

Glad to see Jd land a forever home.

[@einafets1962]

[@louise9973]

Government needs to update the penalties for abuse to animals. Generally they get a fine, jail sentences should be a given or a course set up to change the humans behaviour. There should be a national database that accrues names, secondary contacts etc. Harsher penalties and banning ownership period. We need this now.

[@brendamills13]

PUBLIC SHAMING....

[@marieastwood5016]

Please catch him ASAP!

[@commonsense2680]

Yes, public database. I cannot believe some of these abusers are allowed to own dogs again after a year. Nothing will change a person who can be so cruel to innocent animals. My heart gets sick seeing innocents put in harms way and intentionally by the owner. Don't get an animal unless you are willing to sacrifice for him or her. I've seen homeless people in city streets treat their pets better than some of these people. Ugh.

[@saladstrongsoprano9625]

Agreed. And this should also apply to cows, pigs, chickens, turkeys, and the like.

[@cutejapanesecatsandanimals5338]

Many dogs come all the way to their owners and try to sleep with their bodies attached to their owners. This is not because they want you to do something for them, but because they feel safe around their beloved owners and want to be near their owners. Some dogs will discreetly take a position where they can see their owners from a little distance. Some will even climb on top of their owner's legs or body, or go out of their way to position themselves in an inconvenient place. In particular, sleeping at the feet of their master shows trust and loyalty. When you see your dog sleeping curled up at your feet, you can't help but love him. In some cases, it may be a sign that the dog is trying to protect you.🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶💖💖💖💖💖💖

[@Nikki_81]

My pupper will sleep curled up or even spread out across my chest/belly! If he gets too cold he curls up in my heated blanket with me! He has done it since he was a pup! I also have a couple cats who will do the same thing, that is if the pupper gives up some space! I also have pain issues and if I'm in a flare up, they all come and snuggles me. It's a huge part of my pain management toolkit! I wish I could post pictures!! They are all such loving snuggle bugs!!

[@vickifields7019]

It truly breaks my heart to see these babies as they're being rescued but Thank God for the rescuers. Truly heart warming to see how they survived. I have a rescue who was chained to a tree as a puppy and abused for sport. When I think about how he started life in that cruel world, I am absolutely angered beyond words. He is now my great protector (literally) just because I showed him a little Love. Oh for the ways and means to rescue a many more of these babies.

[@Phlowermom]

My dad (who seduced my dog away from me) sleeps with 'his' dog in his arms. He started it to keep me from repossessing her in the night, now it's become a habit. If I come into the room she gives a little warning growl and I just back out. Needless to say yet I say it anyway, the last time he went home, she packed her tiny little backpack and went home with him to the mountains of Oregon. Traitorous wretch!! But you shouldn't stand in the way of a true love story!

[@ginag051987]

Rex has hope in his eyes. People are so cruel, how they can starve a dog like that is unbelievable... People should be put in jail for animal cruelty like that. How can they starve a dog that severe they should starve the human that did that cruelty to them. As for JD he was like get me the hell outta here asap. So glad JD got a forever home that he deserves an not chained to a radiator. 🐾🐾❣️

[@sharonkaczorowski8690]

My husband had an EOD dog before he retired. He had started training with a thoroughbred shepherd who failed training. A friend went to the pound and found KC…a mutt…who was brilliant. Although he was teased about her by the other officers she outperformed or equally performed with the best and brightest and very expensive dogs. I used to help with her training…hubby would hide explosives in a room and would take her through the search. She was so fast! One of the important traits in such a dog is okay drive. KC would do anything for a game of fetch as a reward. She lived to a ripe old age thoroughly spoiled by myself when she retired.

[@krystalm5988]

I'm pausing this 7 minutes in to give my 2 cents about why his eyes are red. Strangulation. Our 2 dogs got tangled in their leads while tethered to one of those high run wires. One was fine, the other had been choked so tightly that by the time she was freed, her eyes were red and slightly swollen. When I saw how tightly the Staffy's chain was on here, I immediately thought of that day when one dogs over enthusiasm nearly killed the other. How someone could leave that poor baby like that, knowing how uncomfortable and unnatural it is ... I'll never understand. We couldn't get that collar off of our dog fast enough! And they were never tethered like that again. .

[@krystalm5988]

@Hopper33 True. When Kharper was strangled, she also had a hoarse cough for a couple of days. And she avoided Buddy like he was a dog catcher. lol.
