So amazing! except for the part about the model stabbing the dog, she should be put down!

wear your own damn skin

the thing that disturbs me about this vid, is all the people wearing the dogs

[Bkind2AN1MAL5]

its really nice to see that none of them look unhealthy, starved, or unhappy, if this was going on in other countries, they would be picked up, put in a shelter and then face the death penalty, no healthy animal deserves to be killed, look at all the over populated humans, if only the humans were picked up, taken to a shelter and euthanised!

11.People, please, do petition the governments of your countries, let them influence our leaders and request them to stop flouting the animals and humans. Center for Animal Welfare Legal Protection, Moscow, Russia.

10.The expert advisory board drafting the law is made up of extremists, ideological followers of the zoo-terrorist organization "Animal Liberation Front", banned in the United States and in Western Europe.

There is no organization to apply to in this country: we have seen it for ourselves that the state of Russia exists no longer. We are appealing to the whole world.

9.Thus, by building shelters, the state wastes money.

Time and again, we petitioned the government of Russia with open letters unveiling monstrous brutality of "humane programs". We published a scientific paper, proving the need for using euthanasia of stray animals as a matter of last resort. For 10 years we have not received a single motivated reply from anybody.

In the meantime, the RF State Duma is about to pass a law on stray dog neutering on the scale of entire Russia.

8.At present, sterilization in some cities gives way to protracted keeping of feral dogs in shelters that will never be able to accommodate even 25% of all animals because the trapping and keeping in shelters of all dogs for a year would cost Russia no less than USD 2 billion. (There are many homeless people in Russia, but no shelters for them are available!) Animals that remain in the street will keep breeding, and their population will be restored immediately.

7.The state allocated huge amounts of budget money to finance these programs. The money has been plundered. In 2010, when there broke out a rabies epidemic in many regions, the chief public health physician banned the destruction of stray dogs even in the woods.

Things came to such a pitch that in November of 2011, after yet another person was maimed and killed by the dogs in Saratov Region, local authorities declared they would not be trapping dogs for fear of being penalized.

6.They spend everything on their pets, themselves living on bread and water. Nobody helps those people, their neighbors treat them with contempt; they do not live, but suffer torments being in constant stress and fear of getting infected, with rabies, among other things. All this becomes possible because of the so-called "humane" (!!!!) programs of sterilizing (neutering) homeless animals, with subsequent return of the animals back in the streets after sterilization.

5.There are no rescue services to attend to homeless (and, indeed, wild) animals in this country. It is only enthusiasts who rescue animals and arrange medical treatment of them at commercial exorbitant rates. Virtually in every (!) dwelling house there are flats crammed to capacity with dozens of pet animals picked up in the street, especially cats. The owners of such flats are real zoo slaves.
