Pet ownership is becoming less obtainable because the cost of caring for your animal

This man took his dog to the vet for an ear issue. Just got a basic ear issue it was $725 and then an additional $425 just to clean tarter from his teeth

This is because of private equity firms, they’ve been secretly buying up and taking over the pet care industry and skyrocketing prices

- 45% of general veterinary practices in the US are owned by private equity firms or corporate consolidators.

- 80% of specialty and emergency veterinary practices are under private equity/corporate ownership

If this continues soon Americans won’t even be able to afford to have a dog or cat anymore

Οι Έλληνες αποτελούμε μόλις το 0,18% του παγκόσμιου πληθυσμού. Δεν είμαστε απλώς μια μειονότητα – είμαστε ένας λαός σε δημογραφική παρακμή, ένας μικρός πληθυσμός που κινδυνεύει με σταδιακή εξαφάνιση μέσα στον 21ο αιώνα.

Παρ�� όλα αυτά, για ορισμένους, εμείς δεν έχουμε το δικαίωμα να προστατεύσουμε την εθνική, πολιτισμική και δημογραφική μας συνέχεια.

Αντίθετα, μας επιβάλλεται η υποχρέωση να υποδεχόμαστε μαζικά ανθρώπους που προέρχονται από πληθυσμιακές ομάδες οι οποίες συνολικά αποτελούν το 35-37% του παγκόσμιου πληθυσμού (Υποσαχάριοι Αφρικανοί και Μουσουλμάνοι), και μάλιστα να τους αντιμετωπίζουμε ως «μειονότητες» που χρειάζονται προστασία.

Πιο καθαρή υποκρισία δεν υπάρχει.

Pima County bureaucrats thought they could quietly kill Sergeant Snuggles after eight months locked in a cage over one startled nip on his own family's land.

They were wrong.

This young Anatolian Shepherd was guarding the acreage like his breed does. Grandma tapped him from behind. One defensive nip. She has said over and over it was her fault. She is fine. She wants him home with the kids who miss their dog every damn day. The family offered training, fencing, a behaviorist who cleared him. Courts and animal control did not care. Vicious label. Isolation. No real visits. Fees piling up while they play God.

Today at ten in the morning, families are rallying at the PACC parking lot on Broadway in Tucson. Lucy, Brendan Jones and family drove two thousand miles from Virginia to stand with them. Lucy beat her own raw deal and came home. Now they fight for Snuggles to do the same.

This is government overreach at its ugliest. Cowards hiding behind rules to break a family and crush kids hearts. One mistake on private property and they treat a loyal dog like a monster. The system stinks.

If Lucy can come home so can Snuggles. Stand up today. Bring him back where he belongs. Running free on that land instead of rotting in a cage.

Show up if you can. Bring signs. Raise your voice. Or call the officials and demand justice.

Tucker Carlson says that the Ottomans were very kind to Christians. Don't forget that 200 years ago, in Chios, 42,000 Greek Christians were massacred by the Muslim Turks and 52,000 were sold into slavery. It was a taste of their kindness.

Dear Laura Conover (@PimaCountyAtty),

My name is Brendan Jones, and this is Lucy. Ten years ago, Lucy saved my life during the war against ISIS. In return, I brought her home with me. While you may not be familiar with her story, millions of people around the world are.

We are writing to you today out of deep concern for a case in Pima County involving a family dog named Snuggles. Snuggles, an Anatolian Shepherd, has been placed on a court-ordered euthanasia list following an incident in which he bit a family member. At the time, the dog was agitated and acting to defend his home and family during a coyote incursion on the property. The entire family, including the individual who was bitten, is devastated by the possibility of losing him.

Snuggles is a large working breed traditionally used as a livestock guardian. At the time of the incident, he was an intact male who had not yet reached the appropriate age for neutering. I have personal experience with this breed, having used Anatolian Shepherds to protect my own flocks of sheep. It is well established that neutering intact males of this breed often produces a noticeable and positive change in temperament, reducing reactivity and certain aggressive behaviors.

Snuggles has now reached an age where neutering is both appropriate and recommended. I am confident that, once neutered, any concerns about future aggression would be substantially alleviated.

Before we consider raising additional public awareness about this case, we wanted to bring it directly to your attention in the hope that a reasonable resolution can be reached quietly and without unnecessary scrutiny. We respectfully ask that you personally review the matter. We believe common sense and compassion can still prevail here.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Very respectfully,
Brendan Jones and Lucy, “America’s Dog”

Here's another massive thank you - this one goes out to the incredible staff at the Shenandoah County Animal Shelter. You are truly angels in disguise.

When I picked Lucy up, it was clear she had been well cared for. She’d been bathed, fed, and loved on. You even went out of your way to replace her ruined bed with a new one, and she’s already claimed it like it’s always been hers.

You took a heartbreaking situation and did everything you could to make it a little softer for her. That kind of kindness doesn’t go unnoticed.

The Shenandoah County Animal Shelter runs almost entirely on donations. If you’re able, they could really use your help. Here’s their list of needed items and their Amazon wishlist:

The outpouring of generosity we’ve received from people across the country and around the world has been overwhelming. If you have it in your heart to help the shelter the same way you helped us, these folks would be deeply grateful.

There’s one moment from the day we picked Lucy up that I’ll never forget. As we were getting ready to leave, it finally hit her that she was going home. She was excited, but also emotional. Before she took that first step toward the door, she turned around and went back to nuzzle the woman who had cared for her these past two months. One last, gentle thank you.

That small gesture said everything about the kind of people who work there.

To every staff member at the Shenandoah County Animal Shelter: thank you. From the bottom of our hearts.

Send the video to everyone you know showing how heinously Nowak was treated by the police in his dying moments and how the police cravenly kowtowed to his murderer.

Legacy mainstream media, same ones who wrote about George Floyd millions of times, are dead silent about Nowak.
