How YOU doin'?

Oh yes, it's Monday

Dogs Unchained!

Did you know...?

Dogs suffer from boredom, stress and loneliness on the end of a chain.

Dogs are pack animals who want and need socialization and companionship.

Chained dogs are associated with crime and are used to guard drug houses and in dog fighting rings.

The American Veterinary Medical Association warns that chaining a dog can contribute to aggressive behavior.

The U.S. Dept. of Agriculture prohibits chaining as the primary means of confinement under the Animal Welfare Act.

The Center for Disease Control states that chained dogs are 2.8 times more likely to bite than unchained dogs.

Nearly 100 state and local jurisdictions ban or severely restrict dog chaining.

The Coalition to Unchain Dogs is a non-profit, volunteer effort dedicated to improving the welfare of dogs living outdoors on chains, based in Durham, NC. Take a look at this great video, shot one weekend this summer, when volunteers built 40 free fences, releasing over 50 dogs from life on a chain. GREAT WORK, PEOPLE!!
