Title: Bulgarian Dog Spinning - another sicko's idea of fun!!!
Post by: Dawn (DiddyDawn) on July 19, 2007, 19:06:00 PM

Please sign the petition against dog spinning in Bulgaria

Dog-spinning - in which dogs are suspended over water and spun repeatedly before being released to spin wildly in the other direction, disoriented and terrified, is still practiced to forecast prosperity is some remote Bulgarian villages.

I'm with you on that one mark...just so everyone knows they STILL have dancing bears and would appear to be falling behind or making less attempts at stopping this barbaric crueltys, yet they are revelling in the tourist trade just now  >:(  unfortunately members of my family go there twice yearly  >:(

The only way to stop these atrocities is not only by signing and letting the country know that this isn't acceptable but by boycotting the countries as well.   I know a lot a people think it won't make a difference but every step taken is a step closer to ending the cruelty.  My head is banging with all this  :censored:  today, I really hope they rot in hell  :censored:  :censored:

I don't think it is fake - unfortunately  :(

It says here that it was banned in 2006 after complaints from Bularian animal welfare organisations - what to believe?

Filthy animals. Thing is, the inbred wasters would still carry on with this sort of malarky whether people visited or not, its probably ingrained into em  >:(

Raties - the pic is definately real, the pixelation on the poor dog and the hicks behind is the same  :(
