Description: "America: Land of the Free? Home of the Brave—the brave chained dogs, who continue to survive despite horrific circumstances, sometimes little to no food or water, and forget love and attention! Those are not 'necessities' to some Americans. I was recently talking to a British woman, who really cracked me up! She told me she reported a neighbor who had a chained dog to AC, and instead of telling HIM to take care of his dog, the AC officer acted like SHE was the bad guy. I laughed and told her that's all too common, unfortunately. She said, 'It's not fair...HE mistreats his dog, and so I can't sleep at night! Tell me, how is that fair?' And she's right! It's not fair; we have to put a stop to allowing it to go on. We must refuse to be bullied by AC officers unwilling to at least treat us with the respect we deserve for caring. She also pointed out that America is lagging very far behind Europe in it's animal care. Tell me something I DIDN'T know!"
