| NEW VACCINATION RULES FOR DOGS Ronald Schultz, chairman of patho-biological sciences at University of Madison Wisconsin's School of Veterinary Medicine said his findings suggest annual vaccinations to prevent rabies, distemper and other life-threatening diseases are not necessary, and their side effects may even hurt dogs. Schultz recommends dogs receive the major shots once every three years and less critical vaccines only in certain instances. Schultz became convinced American dogs were being over-vaccinated after conducting years of clinical trials measuring the potency of vaccinations. His studies showed a rabies vaccine lasts about three years, while the three other core vaccines for the most dangerous canine diseases lasted seven years or more.Schultz said, "If it's not necessary, don't do it." The guidelines published this month (March 2003) in Trends, the journal of the American Animal Hospital Association, are based primarily on Schultz's research.

| The Book of Enoch... has this to say about Animals "And the Lord will not judge a single animal soul for the sake of man; but human souls he will judge for the sake of the souls of their animals. In the great age there is a special place for human beings. And just as every human soul is according to number, so also it is with animal souls. And not a single soul which the Lord has created will perish until the great judgment. And every kind of animal soul will accuse the human beings who have fed them badly. He who acts lawlessly with the soul of an animal acts lawlessly with his own soul... And he who does any kind of harm whatsoever to any kind of animal in secret, it is an evil thing and he acts lawlessly with his own soul." [Old Testament Pseudepigrapha, Vol., I; 2 Enoch [J], p., 184]. |
Magical Rescue 20 June 2002 Seal swims to rescue of drowning dog. A common seal was seen coming to the aid of a drowning dog and pushing it to the safety of a river bank. "It is one of the strangest things I have ever heard... I thought the dog would die because there was nothing I could do to get to it. When the seal suddenly appeared from nowhere I wondered what it would do. It took a matter of seconds to save the dog. I don't know why the seal did what it did. I can't explain it." By the time we arrived, the dog was on dry land and there were three common seals bobbing in the water keeping an eye on him." |
| Animals Have Feelings Animals and their will to live, their need for understanding, compassion and humane treatment from human beings is a serious responsibility with spiritual consequences. Regardless of what people are told by so-called professionals, animals are not dumb, mindless creatures. To the contrary. They are much like human beings in that they have distinct personalities, purpose, relationships, and yes they also have souls. A thing that has no soul cannot die. The way animals are treated, the way in which they are regarded by human beings gives insight into the spiritual status of humans. Animals possess a very special intelligence rarely seen or comprehended by alleged professionals who claim to study them. Animals are highly selective of whom they choose to show their secrets to. And, make no mistake, animals do have secrets. For instance, some dogs will "talk" to one person but not to another... it is a matter of trust. Dogs and many other animals are also capable of establishing a strong "psychic link" with the person they love (trust). Without question, animals experience and endure physical and emotional pain, particularly at the hands of un-enlightened human beings. Animals understand and experience emotions of trust, friendship, contentment, joy, anxiety, frustration, abandonment, betrayal and forgiveness. Animals understand and feel loneliness, disappointment, suffering, distress, fear, panic, terror, grief, loss, suspicion, anger, rage, possessiveness, displeasure, boredom, nervousness and depression. As a human being, do any of those feelings seem familiar to you? |

| Dogs used as shark bait Oct 2005 (?) By IAN HEPBURN ~~ www.TheSun.co.uk/ STRAY dogs are being skewered on hooks and dragged behind boats as live shark bait, The Sun can shockingly reveal. The cruel practice takes place on French-controlled Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean, where Prince William spent two holidays. A six-month-old labrador pup was recently found ALIVE with a huge double hook through its snout - like the dog above - and another through a leg. The pup was found in a coastal creek and is thought to have somehow freed itself from a fishing line. But other dogs and kittens have been chomped up and swallowed by sharks. The RSPCA plans to petition the French government, demanding an end to the hideous torture. Fur coats made from dogs skinned alive drugged and skinned alive to preserve the fur's freshness By Katy Duke and Elizabeth Day www.Telegraph.co.uk/ (Filed: 18 December 2005) It looks like the must-have item in every glamorous woman's winter wardrobe: a sleek, black fur coat dripping with opulence. But despite the seductive appearance, the coat is not mink or sable. Instead, it has been manufactured from dog fur - possibly from an animal that was drugged and skinned alive to preserve the fur's freshness. PHOTO: Heather Mills-McCartney with a rug made from cats' pelts Similar coats are selling rapidly in fashion boutiques across Europe. An undercover investigation has revealed a booming trade in dog fur coats from eastern Europe, some of which are likely to be on sale in Britain. The fur, which comes from both strays and captured pets, is often re-labelled to disguise its origins before being stitched into coats and re-dyed. This Bulgarian fur, for instance, was incorrectly passed off as "Korean Wolf". Unlike a mink, which can cost £10,000, a top-price coat made from dog pelt may sell in markets of western Europe for around £400. The investigation by a German television documentary crew focused on Bulgaria, where it found that stray dogs were routinely rounded up by licensed trappers and delivered to fur factories. Anita Singh, a campaign co-ordinator for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals in Britain, said that there were also reports of pets being snatched for their fur. "They tend to be bigger dogs like German shepherds or golden retrievers," she said. "It is important for people to realise that when they buy fur it is nearly impossible to tell whether real dog or cat has been used unless it undergoes extensive DNA testing. "You can find dog fur in shopping centres in Britain labelled as something else. It is a disgusting industry and our advice is simply to avoid all types of fur." It is not illegal to trade in dog and cat fur in Britain, although bans have been imposed in the United States, Sweden, Denmark, Greece, Italy, France and Australia. The British Fur Trade Association, which represents the fur industry, said none of its members knowingly used dog fur, and it had introduced a labelling system to try to guard against its use. Most furs - such as mink, fox, seal or rabbit - have their own classification so it is possible to see how much is imported and exported. Fur that falls under the "other fur" category, however, does not have to be listed by species and could include dog or cat fur. Historically, the British have been unwilling to buy dog fur. In the children's book, 101 Dalmatians, written by Dodie Smith in 1948, the villainous Cruella de Vil tries to steal dalmatian puppies to make herself a unique spotted coat. Yordanka Zrcheva, the president of the Bulgarian Society for the Protection of Animals, went undercover for a German television documentary to demonstrate the extent of the problem. Miss Zrcheva said that the country, which is hoping to join the European Union in just over a year, produced "tens of thousands" of dog pelts to sell across Europe. "There is a massive industry based on the systematic killing of dogs," she said. "There are dog fur factories all over Bulgaria, and they produce all sorts of items, like fur coats, leather shoes and bags made from dogs and so on." According to Rumi Becker, a spokesman for the Doctors for Animals group which works for the protection of Bulgaria's stray dogs, the authorities are unwilling to clamp down because the industry is "big business". In Bulgaria the average salary is around £35 a month, while a teacher makes about £80 a month and a doctor £100. One fur coat can be sold inside the country for £200 and more than double that abroad. "It is hard to collate exact numbers but around 10,000 dogs are collected and killed in Sofia alone every year, often shipped straight to fur factories from dog pounds and animal shelters," said Dr Becker. "The so-called fur lords who run the factories are farming the dogs on the street without having to pay any support. They don't have to feed or house them or anything except round them up and then skin them. "I bought a black and white coat labelled Korean Wolf. I asked if it was made with street dog fur, and the vendor said it was, but that I should keep my voice down. I was pretending to be a dealer, and asked if it would be possible to have more. She told me she had 750 in a storeroom in Sofia." Last week, the anti-fur campaigner Heather Mills McCartney urged the European Union to ban the trade in cat and dog fur, citing the example of the Czech Republic. "Domestic cats are stolen off the streets, and we're talking about 2,000 to 3,000 just in the Czech Republic, not in the whole of Europe," she said. |
