NeoThis 11 month old Siberian husky earned his hero stripes by getting human help for his imperiled owner, Marci Snead. When Snead (a diabetic with fibromyalsia and rheumatoid arthritis) went into hypoglycemic shock, Neo ran to the nearest building. There, he grabbed the attention of several people who followed Neo back to where Snead had fallen. Within moments, an ambulance was called and the women carted off to a nearby hospital, where she recovered completely.

This article has to be the biggest load of crapo I have ever read...can you believe that? and is she suggesting that Huskies and rotties should fall under BSL as well? Sounds to me that shes just spewing out ignorance anyone that knows a husky knows that any "attack" by one is never vicious and as far as any breed goes its the owner not the dog people need to remember these are animals and train them and treat them as such they cant speak http://fullcomment.nationalpost.com/2012/08/01/barbara-kay-on-ontarios-pit-bull-ban-pit-bulls-are-bred-to-maul/

This whole situation kind of makes me laugh because the thought of a Mal being aggressive towards a human is preposterous. At the same time this makes me angry how could the city I live in be so freeking dumb obviously the dog isn't aggressive and the person he "attacked" could just be protecting her GSD because he was the one that accidentally bit her in the leg when it tried to attack the Mal. Dogs should have 3 strikes before it can be deemed aggressive its stupid who knows the person who got "bit" could also just be making up a bunch of crap because people in this area are snobs and think the world owes them everything. http://www.globaltvbc.com/video/dog+bite…

I wasn't sure what to put the title as but there was a story on Castanet recently about a woman who is renting the basement suite in a house the city of Kelowna owns and she noticed that there was a lot of people coming in and going out of the upstairs of the house, they wouldn't stay for long maybe 3 mins and then leave. So she started video taping all the people that were coming in and going out and she sent what she had and her suspicions about it being a drug house to the city of Kelowna and the RCMP and they both responded saying that there was not enough evidence. So Castanet reporter went to help out this lady in a way by going undercover and buying drugs from the …

And in Canada again... http://www.northcountrygazette.org/2012/07/25/efforts-today-in-montreal-court-to-save-wicca/ Id also like to know wtf is with these "victims" are people completely daft and don't know anything about dogs? They cant tell a scratch from a a bite, a lab x bulldog from a pitbull, a submissive malamute from a GSD that spazzed out or a traumatized cat from one that probably has skin problems? Seriously? It like whne I go to the dog park and Marius makes snorting and growling noises...they aren't aggressive obviously by his actions hes playing but some dog owners think otherwise -.-

Allyson Griffie receives attention from her Siberian Huskies at her Medford home. Mail Tribune / Julia Moore Medford, Oregon Dog mushers support one of their pack By Buffy Pollock July 18, 2012 When Medford resident Allyson Griffie was diagnosed in 2011 with breast cancer, she realized more than ever that the loyalty of canines — and girlfriends — toward members of their pack is truly a force to be reckoned with. Griffie, 53, is a musher, one of a half-dozen or so Rogue Valley women between 50 and 73 who run dog teams over sand dunes, dirt and snow. Amid Griffie's aggressive form of cancer and subsequent double mastectomy, the group p…

The blue heeler was tied to a fence outside Rapid Creek Market when it was approached by two Darwin City Council traffic wardens. One of the inspectors wrote out a ticket – and taped it to the dog's lead. Witness Ray McEvoy said he couldn't believe his eyes. "I watched an elderly lady and her very faithful blue heeler roll up at the market," he said. "The lady tied the dog to the fence and gave him a bowl full of water. "And off she went into the markets. "Then two traffic inspectors came along. They had a bit of a talk …

Here's a news story of another dog in court thats also been in confinement for a year. http://www.chbcnews.ca/video/dangerous+dog+trial/video.html?v=2247926479#stories Did that guy seriously say his cat was traumatized from being chased by a dog? and that its self mutilating itself because of it? OH PLEASE. My brothers 150lb GSD chased my cat Enkil through the house and Enkil was terrified and he sprayed but it he traumatized? No he goes on about his daily stuff the same. When my brothers dog comes inside at night Enkil will carefully watch him go into my brothers room but that's it after hes in there he falls asleep >.>
