LIVE Coverage of Protest to Free Forrest in Denver

icon for podpress  Protest to free Forrest: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

Once again the spotlight is on Denver, Colorado, Forrest the dog held captive, and his owner, Chris; an innocent man who thinks of his dog as his ’son’.  Join us as DJ Ice speaks with Dr. Paula Terifaj and Chris LIVE at the protest.  Hear as Chris tells his chilling tale of how Forrest was stolen the first time he ended up across the Denver city line and how DENVER forced him to keep his dog locked in a kennel.  Now Denver is holding the dog and threatening to euthanize him over the Breed Ban Legislation they passed several years ago that has since resulted in the deaths of hundreds of family pets only because they were guilty of being the wrong breed.  Forrest has never hurt anyone.  Chris doesn’t even reside in Denver.  His place of residence is recorded as being in Adams County; yet Denver feels the need to confine this dog and KILL him!

You hear the words, then you make your decision, then take action.  Don’t allow prejudice to win.  Stand up and be heard.  Stand up for Forrest.  Demand that he be returned to Chris.

Verizon Wireless talks to the press about comments on their commercial and this is my response

Visit http://adage.com/article?article_id=129799 to read the scoop.  Don’t forget to read the comments about the article.  They should really ruffle your feathers!!!!  Mindless whiney people thinking that Pit Bulls are vicious, again, playing into the hands of the ignorant!  Especially the one who was attacked by a pit bull.  I was attacked by 2 trained German Shephard dogs when I was 6 years old.  Even at that young age I knew it wasn’t the fault of the dogs but the fault of the owner.  This victim claims that the dog that attacked her was owned by a nurse and not trained to attack!  BULL CRAP!!!  That dog was probably not socialized or given the attention that a dog needs; or even abused.  ANY dog will turn mean if not properly socialized or abused!  The “nurse” appearantly lived alone so the dog was left alone 90% of the time.  NOT SOCIALIZED!!!!!!  Stop whining and blaming the breed.  I’m sick to death of hearing about Pit Bulls being vicious and mean when it ALWAYS boils down to how it was raised!!!!!!!

I have saved thousands of pit bulls and I know guys who bust up Pit Bull fighting rings WEEKLY and I nor any of them have EVER been bit by a Pit Bull!  I’ve been bitten by cats, wildlife, gerbils, hamsters, birds, chihuahuas, pomeranians, and other small breed dogs but I have NEVER been bitten by a Pit Bull.  My best friend was but that was because she was breaking up a dog fight (2 rescued dogs) and hit the pit bull over the head with a cast iron skillet!  She ended up calling me to help break the dogs up and I never got bit!

I deal with thousands of people on a daily basis who have rescued pit bulls whom have NEVER been bitten!!!!  So this garbage the press is trying to pass off as proof of Pit Bull aggression is full of dog piss!

The dogs being pit bulls are not the only issue that is raised in the concerns of the commercial, but also the fact that the commercial shows the dogs chained with no food, water or shelter.  Verizon Wireless wishes us to believe that the commercial is “fake” or “fantasy” but there is nothing “fake” or “fantasy about chained dogs.  Dogs Deserve Better works very hard to educate people about chained and penned dogs.  Fact is that a chained or penned dog is 100% more likely to bite a child or turn on people due to lack of socializing.  This is a FACT, not fiction or fantasy!

Also, look at the statistics about pit bull attacks.  Better yet, I’ll make it easy for you!  Here are the statistics, the FACTS:

Those are the hard cold facts about pit bulls.  If you can’t deal with it then BACK OFF THE BREED!!!!!!  If you can’t handle the truth about chained dogs the BACK OFF those of us who truly wish to make a difference!

BRUTAL TORTURE & CUTTING ALIVE of an 8 year old loving & friendly DOG (Female) on J.N.U. CAMPUS, DELHI by a resident Phd student from NE State.

On July 7 2008 night a student from N E India, whose name is YORONSU,

male 31 years of age in the dept of School of Social Sciences, JNU doing Phd)along with two other students, on the campus of J.N.U.

(Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi) TORTURED and bludgeoned a 8 year old black, female dog for more than 1 and half hours, with a cricket bat and rods till she was all in blood and her head swollen to twice the size. Then the three of them CUT HER INTO MANY pieces while she was alive and her mouth was stuffed up with a cloth and tied.

First she was lured from the ground floor to the upper floor using biscuits as bait and then locked up in their hostel room where this entire incidence took place.

The HOSTEL WARDEN and other students discovered this while the act was still going and when the cries of the poor dog reached other rooms and blood started flowing out. Some students immediately called the police van which was stopped at the gates of the campus and then after the body was disposed off were allowed inside.

All students and the warden were instructed not to give any statements to the press or the media. There is enough proof and witnesses

on campus to authenticate the incidence.

After much investigation a complaint has been filed with the police station of vasant vihar. But till date no action has been taken by the police.

The students also did an on spot signature campaign and got signatures

 of students who saw the body and others who know about the act.

Despite all these efforts the JNU AUTHORITIES are not cooperating and on the other hand have in fact become a party to the act by disposing off the body of the dog on their own and BY DESTROYING all evidence that was there.

Just to settle the matter they got a formal confession from the student which says that he killed the dog in self defense, which is a made up story as the body was found in the students locked room on the upper floor under the horrible conditions as described in the account by the student.

The student who used to feed the dog for many years is all in tears as

she was the most loving and harmless dog on the campus and hence the chosen victim.

The Times of India newspaper and India TV news channel are helping

us to raise the issue to the public and police so that they take action and

take both the JNU authorities and the 3 students involved to task.

The other students on the campus say that this is a regular activity on

the campus of JNU and many dogs and puppies have died this death

and that the J.N.U. administration is least bothered all the time.

We will try our best to go to the highest authorities to get these culprits punished.

We seek your help to write to the JNU authorities at the following

emails ids and also call them to demand the following :

a) Expell the student from the university and black list him.

b) Do not accept his PHd which he is going to submit on July 20 2008and do not allow his guide to sign his PHD.

c) Cancel his Masters and Bachelors degrees

d) SUBMIT A CHARGESHEET AGAINST HIM WITH

THE POLICE AND GET HIM ARRESTED.

ALL PHONE NUMBERS AND EMAILS ID OF JNU

ARE ATTACHED IN THE PDF FILE

HEREWITH.

Their main website is:http://www. jnu. ac. in  In addition the phone numbers of the main JNU authority people involved in this case are : Warden, Soumen Chattopadhyay ( +91 9873439840 )Acting Dean, V.K.
Jain ( +91 9868585788 )

Also write to the following email ids for police to take

action against both the Students and JNU for destroying

evidence and being accomplice to the murder:

http://www. saferindia. com/kiranbedi/ delpol@del2. vsnl. net. in Police Commissioner of Delhi, Mr Y.S.
Dhadwal(email id can be searched from the internet) or visit

http://www. delhipolice. nic. in/WE ALSO APPEAL TO THE ANIMAL WELFARE BOARD OF INDIA TO MAKE THEIR PRESENCE FELT BY TAKING APPROPRIATE LEGAL ACTION AGAINST THE CULPRITS.
WE ALSO APPEAL TO THE OTHER MEDIA AND PRESS TORAISE THIS ISSUE SO JUSTICE IS DONE. AFTER ALL THIS THAT STUDENT IS ROAMING FREELY ON THE CAMPUS WITH FULL CONFIDENCE TILL DATE. ONLY A PUBLIC MASS SCALE PARTICIPATION AND APPEAL CAN BRING THIS POOR DOGS DEATH’S TO JUSTICE AND STOP THIS ONGOING BRUTAL SLAUGHTER OF POOR DOGS AND CATS FOR MEAT & PLEASURE.

OTHERWISE THIS DEATH WILL BE FORGOTTEN LIKE MANY OTHERS AND THESE PEOPLE WILL GET THE CONFIDENCE TO REPEAT SUCH ACTS IN THE OPEN THE NEXT TIME. THEY ARE NOT STUDENTS BUT HARD CORE CRIMINALS OF TOMORROW. WE HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING IN OUR POWER TO GET THEM ARRESTED BUT HAS FAILED SO FAR. ONLY A MASS UPROAR CAN DO SOMETHING NOW.

OTHERWISE WE SHOULD GIVE UP THIS SO CALLED ACT OF ANIMAL

WELFARE AND STOP CALLING OURSELVES ANIMALS LOVERS.

WE CANT EVEN LEGALLY AVENGE A DOGS BRUTAL AND GRUESOME MURDER !..

For and on behalf of Citizens For Animals, Delhi
