I hear so many horror stories around animal cruelty. People using their dogs for bait in dog fights or beating them so badly it causes serious harm or death or even throwing pets from bridges or drowning them. This breaks my heart and I'm sure it affects so many other normal people in the world who have pets or who have a heart. I like I'm sure many other people out there would like to see a change in the law so that anyone who mistreats an animal by seriously harming them or causing their death is banned from owning an animal for the rest of their lives rather than just a few years which is what the law is at the moment. If a person can do such horrible things to an animal then they simply should not be allowed to ever be in possession of one. Unfortunately the law is that an animal is just an object but they are much more than this, they are very intelligent and loving creatures and make such a huge impact to our lives as many of you dog or cat owners would agree.
