Animal Abuse Today
- There are animals in trouble where we don't even know. From our dogs and cats all the way to what is on our plates. S.W.A.T. P.A.W.S. is one of very few organizations who are not only putting the word out there, but trying to do something about it as well.
From the moment they are born, piglets are torn away from their mothers, their testicles are riped out and their tails are cut off, all without pain killers. Many of these young lives are lost from the mutilations. While pregnant with their young, the mother pigs are kept in a small metal stalls that they barley fit into. They can sometimes develop open soars that have the chance of being infected. Pigs are physically abused in order to "make them move" where the workers want them to go. Piglets that aren't growing fast enough or who become sick are killed.
Cows raised for meat go through different types of mutilations, this including, branding with a hot iron. They spend the rest of their lives in over crowded pins standing in their own waste. At slaughter the cattle are fully conscious when their throats are cut open, and their limbs are cut off.
"Dogs can develop joint and limb problems that are genetically caused. Some German Shepherds, especially competition dogs, have difficulty walking upright because of careless and irresponsible breeders. Others suffer neurological brain damage.
"It is now known that many King Charles Spaniels suffer from an life-long condition called Syringomyelia. As much as half, perhaps even more of all King Charles are thought to be affected by the disease.
"Syringomyelia is caused by intensive breeding which resulted in the dog’s skull being too small for its brain. This has a severe impact on the dog’s health causing the animal severe pain and headaches." People can also suffer from the disease which is thought to be one of the most excruciating conditions that exist.
