Editor's Notes
- #4Â There is an overwhelming number of animals in shelters because of abuse, neglect and the rise of Puppy Mill dogs being rescued.
- #5Â We live just minutes away from the Puppy Mills in Lancaster, PA.People need to be more aware of what is going on around them because domestic violence typically starts with animal abuse.
- #8 children abuse is very similar to animal abuse in violence household.Account of the accident does not fit with the injuryOwner refuses to comment about the injuryLack of concern for the animal’s injuriesDelay in seeking veterinary treatmentA good way an veterinary can tell if an animal is being abused is when injury on the animal does not match the story of the ownerHappyAffectionate Some injuries do not add up to the owners story. Fractures can help determent that. (Munro 202,203)
- #9 There are many forms of animal abuse including the types you see. (Munro 206)An adult old English sheepdog arrived at the surgery with a fracture of the femur. The owner said that the dog had “slipped on ice.” Two weeks later, the dog was back at the surgery, this time having ”fallen downstairs.” She now had a second fracture of the same leg, one inch below the first fracture. Some weeks later, her owner called the surgery to report that her dog had “fallen down a drain” but the person taking the call did note that she seemed unconcerned about any injuries. Two weeks later, the owner called the surgery again and two veterinary nurses went to her home. The dog was wrapped in a sweater and lying on a urine-soaked blanket, her face caked with blood from a seeping wound. Both her forelegs were fractured, one of the fractures being compound. Both breaks had occurred some days before. The owner was in tears and claiming that her dog had been attacked by a neighbor’s dog. (Case 12) (Munro 207)

- #12Â Because the animal helpless and they can not stop nor fix what is happening to them and until people are aware it is to late most of the time when the animal is rescued from being abuse and being brought to shelter they give them the care they need but also made sure the animals are adoptableAbuses are prevalent able(Lagoni, Butler, Olson 211)

- #15Â This quote talks with few words but the messages is so strong! This is what I think of the quote is saying.A dog will run from danger but when danger lives within the home of the dog the will try to get away but in time the dog will give up.(Ascione 45)
