As previously reported, Ventura County Animal Services (VCAS) is being sued to prevent it from killing Bruce, a dog ordered destroyed after being declared “vicious.” The lawsuit was filed by the Santa Paula Animal Rescue Center (SPARC), which argues that it retained contractual rights to Bruce under the adoption agreement executed when the dog was adopted in 2023.
It is so IRRATIONAL -- with all life-affirming options available for Bruce, for VCAS to choose death -- not only is it irrational, it's cruel and hateful -- moreover, arguments are all "technicalities" -- NO substance --- it's as if they're deciding the fate of a box of shoes -- What can we do to force VCAS to NOT KILL Bruce.
Dear Nathan, What has happened to Decency, Common Sense, Kindness, and Compassion in this absolutely absurd attitude and behavior of Rodriguez and Crenshaw of VCAS?! I would equate their fixation on wanting to kill innocent Bruce with the behavior and attitude of Hitler and the Nazis in their fixation on killing all Jews . It is as if these “Nazis “ ( Rodriguez and Crenshaw) see Bruce is a Jewish dog. They are evil and insensitive and INHUMANE “human beings “ who have zero compassion for Sentient Beings such as Bruce. They should be brought up on charges comparable to those faced by Hitler’s henchmen in the famous trials following their atrocities. Nathan, as you explain your compassionate attitude toward those on trial when you were a prosecutor, such should be the case in order to save the life of Bruce. Humanity and Common Sense must prevail = Bruce's life matters far more than ignorance and stubborn behavior by VCAS and Rodriguez and Crenshaw. Let us pray that Bruce will live.❤️🐶🙏
You are so right about the Nazi personalities. They are everywhere in the "animal care" profession. Animal "Protection" Services is infested with them, law enforcement, and yes even the veterinary field especially since most hospitals are corporate now (speaking as a veterinary critical care nurse with 25 years of experience). Animal cruelty has become the accepted norm, while protecting and nurturing these precious beings has faded into obscurity.
What an absolute waste of money and time(including that of Bruce whose life now is sitting in a kennel, meaning he is more likely to develop FAS) when there is a common sense solution sitting right in front of the faces of these VCAS idiots🤬

Winograd is doing it.

I read the whole thing in the middle of a busy day.
Any dog could bite someone. Becoming homeless and going through all that stress with his people obviously caused this.
My Keeshond had a sound temperament and was
an excellent watchdog. He only acted like he would bite on three occassions where an adult
provoked him but he did not bite, only growl and go up after them while on lead to protect me.
He settled immediately as I directed him.
If a stranger is threatening to the owner, I prefer a good watchdog to a trained attack dog, but he was always supervised anyway.
But you can't mess with dogs and expect not to get bitten. They don't like to be stared at and other weird behavior by people.
Nathan, any way you could represent Bruce?
He has good representation in both lawsuits. I am in touch with the attorneys representing him.
