Sick b**tard tossing cheese with nails in dog parks - Page 1

I'm doing a c/p to what I've posted on my local media FB page.

Even in regular parks can be targeted so be careful when walking your dogs.

I'm not entirely sure on the location of this source, but a facebook user, Eric Pack Ethic Bellows, posted a disturbing photo of what he found in his local dog park. Someone is going around cheese with nails inside them, and purposely tossing them to where animals can eat them. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=172700639479915set%3Da.125432354206744.31753.125365454213434&type=1&theater
BE CAREFUL and always monitor your animals at all times.

I really hope he gets caught and thrown into jailed for doing this heinous crime to such beautiful creations of God. 

Thank You for sharing, the dog on your avatar is so beautiful.

Can someone translate this article? It's in spanish. http://www.perfil.com/contenidos/2011/07/25/noticia_0026.html

TXgsd, Jail is too good for this sick person. Being ganged up by a bunch of animal lovers would be far better.

Thank you for your wonderful compliments. The dog on my avatar is my oldest bitch, Zambi.

Bablefish gives the following translation. I've done a bit of editing for clarity. I thnk "el canil" means dog park, and have translated it as such.
 

The Center of Adoption of Mascots alerted in the last hours that food for dogs with nails in their interior was found within the dog park of Centennial Park, in the City of Buenos Aires. " Minutes ago I returned from taking a walk with my dogs at Centennial Park. As always we went to the canil and on the ground were small pieces of ham and a piece of blood sausage tirados," the person who found the food posted on their Facebook page. No one paid them much attention, until we accidentally stepped on one and we saw that inside it had a nail. When we began to look at all the pieces of food that had been thrown on the ground, they were all the same. We picked them up and threw them away.  The small pieces of food were scattered all over the dog park, and they all had nails inside with sharp points. The Center recommended to alert the dog owners of this fact.

Mascotas are how you say Pets in Spanish :). This whole thing is sick people are plain evil, human beings never cease to amaze me with how disgusting we can be. It is really sad because as a species we do not deserve the loyalty and love these animals give us. Just too bad :(

Another Good Example of why to teach a dog, preferrable as a puppy, not to pick things up on walks.  Discarded chicken bones, ect ect ect; a "pop" on the leash, & the "Yuk" "Out" command.

My GSD to this day, when off leash, will pick up an "object" (usually a walnut) & trot around "me" showing an item in her mouth (knowing, too Smart!)
I say the "Yuk- Out" & she spits it out for me to look at, discard!!

I always have her "favorite" ball in my vest pocket, which she would rather have!!


The above also teaches the "oust" meaning, for future protection training!

Yet another landslide that started with a grain of truth:

Come on folks, it took me all over 10 seconds to double check this. Facebook is not a credible souce of information.

And actually, you don't want to only teach your dog to drop things they pick up- you want to teach them not to pick it up at all. Big, potentially life saving, difference. If she's still picking things up, she hasn't really been taught not to touch things on the ground, then.

Correct; in a perfect world;  Yet, with my "less than Perfect" training, the "Life Saving Difference" is She Doesn't Swallow What she Picks Up!
& Oust was really easy for her to grasp in later training, concept!

& she doesn't Pick things up on random walks = off leash, walnuts, object similar to a ball, if I haven't gotten her ball out soon enough!!
Oust = Ball, game she has perfected, faster than me!
 

What is more deadly from dog parks are germs.

I think my young dog caught leptospirosis home. She was young enough to fight it off (her piss was blood red), but I believe it killed my older dogs. One very harrowing experience for me.

Be sure your dog gets some non-core vaccines if you take it to a dog park.

Give it DHLPPC + bordetala, not just DHPP, and yearly, not tri-annually.

High Desert, what are non-core vaccines? Not that I take my dogs to dog parks. But I did notice that one of my dogs killed a rodent in his kennel today, and that is where lepto comes from.
