Chained pit bull mix puppy shivering in snow.

Chained dog in Kansas City. You can see her shivering at around 35 seconds. It is a little hard to tell in the video but I saw her shivering. We are there with Spay Neuter Kansas City, in the Pet Assistance Program. ***We gave her the dog house and straw. That was not there when we got there.***

a real advocate would have taken this dog.

@HotRedStilettos I am not in the business of stealing animals because if I took all the animals that I saw out there, I'd have 10 dogs in a 2 bedroom apartment. All we can do is make them more comfortable...it's not a crime to do this so the law is not on our side. 

[GAMERthanYOU]

The animal has shelter to the left with what looks to be straw... this is more than enough for the animal and should not be illegal.

The dog is shivering because you've got its attention out in the cold, stop wasting the dogs energy for your own amusement and let it get back to being warm in its dog house, thanks.

@GAMERthanYOU We gave him the dog house and straw! He had nothing before we came along...

The dog has proper housing and if you weren't out bothering animals that are not yours would probably be in its dog house curled up. Worry about your animals and this dog is in spectacular condition clearly has decent owners. The chain obviously is not bothering the dog & you are over dramatizing the situation at hand.

@snoopytjbm We gave him the dog house and straw!

that chain is as big as her arm! cruel people!

[Cooludeful]

People need to start reading the description before they hate. I think what you're doing is great and it's understandable that you would do more if you could and had the authority. It's too bad there isn't some safe haven we could put all the neglected dogs in the world without the expense and law.

@snoopytjbm

moron obviously can't read.

[sub7girl]

This is a crime. Chaining a dog...why isn't the owners chained too? I bet they would love to be out there, in the cold....

@Koodoze The fuck is your problem?

[JADEAV]

STUPID! Don't abandon it with that huge and heavy chains!! Use the HEAD!! Respect the dog's desires!! Keep it inside and warm!! SOOOOO STUPID for neglecting it!!

I don't blame the person who filmed this for not taking the dog but I think I would have had to, or at least have called a rescue. This is appalling. Besides the physical issues it presents, it had serious mental and emotional implications. Dogs need socialisation, love and comfort as much as we do and being left outside on a chain promotes frustration and aggressiveness. When the pibble bites someone, what do people do? Blame the dog of course.

[middy444]

@snoopytjbm LEARN TO READ. THEY gave the pibble the stuff.

@GAMERthanYOU you are a fool who knows nothing about pitbulls
