In today's world, in this country especially the inconsistencies are enormous. The gap between two complete opposite courses of action is unacceptable. In one state, you can have a Michael Vick fighting dog completely transformed into a therapy dog, happily serving a constructive purpose and enjoying every minute of it. In yet another state (Ohio, specifically) breed specific paranoia has caused a local policy of mandating pit bull owners to surrender their beloved pets to animal control where they will be unceremoniously killed.
Now, in Saratoga Springs, Utah that same breed specific paranoia has ended with animal control again waltzing into someone's home and ruthlessly removing someone's beloved pet, falsely assuring the owners that nothing bad would happen to their Chow, Scruffy.
Within hours, Scruffy was dead and the same murderers responsible for the death are still demanding back fees, costs, etc.
Keep in mind that Scruffy's only offense was the urge to run. The dog never attacked anyone, never bit, attempted to bite, never bared teeth, never once acted as an aggressive dog.
I urge you to click on the video link below and hear the owner's story in her own words. Demand justice for Scruffy. Really, folks... this was WRONG. There must be some form of justice here.

Are you as angry as I am?
The actions must not go unpunished. Spread this video anywhere you can, this story needs to be seen by everyone. What happened to Scruffy is not an isolated case, it can and does happen anywhere there is a secondary agenda, misuse of power, breed specific paranoia, greed, or just simply apathetic individuals who make up an organization that are supposed to CARE about animals.
Thanks for paying attention.
