I thought Wayne Pacelle wanted to end the ownership of domestic animals i.e. pets. Eradicate dogs and cats as our family members?

Oh, he does. Publicity stunts like this disguise the true character of the H$U$. It is rare when they actually put the needs of animals before the needs of their soapboxes.

The contest is a wonderful idea. I have noticed people asking questions and wondering how to help. The shelter has been put in such a positive position and now the public realize where it is, what you do and that it takes quite a bit of donations to care for the animals. One person I spoke with thought the state assisted. Please disregard any negative feed back. All of you are terrific !

I want to see a picture of Wayne and his pets not just a picture of Wayne. His pets would be a much better picture for the Humane Society. I am starting to get worried about the society. I have been hearing some bad things that I do not agree with. People need to start researching and see how much money goes to saving & sustaining animals and prosecuting abusers. I do not have a pit bull, but they are an animal that need to be protected, but unlike many others, I believe there should be NO breeding and that includes pit bulls!! I believe that "Do not breed or buy while shelter animals die".

Molly, I am always taking pics of my two dogs. Try talking to them while your taking their photos. If I am taking Romoes picture I always ask if he wants a cookie or where Grandma is. Then his eyes are really alert. Good luck!

How happy am I about this contest? Well, considering H$U$'s feelings towards both pitt bulls and exotic pets, I am not thrilled. I don't have a Pitt Bull but unlike HSUS I believe in punishing the deed and not the breed. And I DO have exotic pets... including Sugar Gliders, a Turtle, and a Tortoise... NONE OF WHICH I am ALLOWED to enter pictures of for this contest. When I tried to enter a picture of Heber my male sugar glider (who is, by the way is a rescue AND is NEUTERED, and isn't that what SPAY DAY is really ABOUT?!) I was given THIS message:

"Regardless of the kind of pet you live with, we know he or she is your best friend. We also acknowledge and appreciate that you may have a pet that -- although not included in the eligible pet list below-- was rescued or rehabilitated. But, out of concern for wild animals who are either captured from the wild or bred in captivity, the Spay Day Online Pet Photo Contest is limited to the following pets: dog, cat, rabbit, certain equines*, hamster, gerbil, guinea pig, ferret, mouse, rat, canary, parakeet, cockatiel, zebra finch, society finch, lovebird, freshwater aquarium fish."

Thanks but no thanks, Wayne, my animals do NOT need your "concern." I researched the care of my critters fully and continue to do so. They have a home with me for life, full of enrichment, proper diet, and LOVE.

As the owners of 10 cats, a Rottweiler, and a 4-ft. long, 8-lb. Iguana, I understand the feelings of other exotic pet owners who are proud of their pets & would like to send in their photos, too. The prizes for winners are probably geared for the more conventional pets, however, so just skip the exotics for the time being & send in pics of your dogs, cats, fish, birds, or horses, and quit complaining!

I completely agree. I do not own a Rottie but I did when I was younger. I do believe in punishing the deed and not the breed, but there are so many people out there who mix blood lines that shouldn't be mixed just to make a buck and the results can be a dog with serious issues. So I say let's do what counts and that is helping as many animals we can regardless of what they are.
