Teenage Cruella De Vil

Have you ever wondered what parents teach their children or what your children are really learning from their friends? After watching the video in this article I now am. Below is a picture of "Teenage Cruella De Vil".



A young teenage girl from Bosnia is now being referred to as "The Puppy Pitcher" and "Teenage Cruella De Vil" after putting a video on YouTube of her throwing crying puppies (at least 6) into a rapidly moving river. They even said in the article, and I quote ""It is a mirror of society and the fact that young people are doing such things shows how they have been raised," stated by Velimir Ivanisevic, the head of animal rights group SOS.

The fines for torchering or killing an animal in Bosnia can range from $19 to $6,400. The police are now starting an investigation and searching for the girl known as "The Puppy Pitcher". PETA is offering a $2,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the girl and anyone else involved in the drowning of the liter of helpless puppies.

The video itself is a horrible video. It was definitely hard for me to watch. At one point, one of the puppies barely even made it in the water. All the poor puppies were thrown to their death in only 44 seconds. While throwing one of the pups into the water, you can even hear her saying "whee". Her brother was the one filming while she threw the puppies into the river. These kids are seriously sick and demented and need to be found and dealt with.

Animals Rescued

The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) assisted Ohio law enforcement with investigating a suspected large scale dog-fighting ring. More than 500 animals were found on the scene, 200 of which were American Pit Bull terriers. The other animals included chickens, roosters, turkeys, boars, and reptiles. The HSUS is working to place the animals. 10 dogs are being taken to Washington Animal Rescue League. Other animals are with rescue organizations or in homes.


This just goes to show how serious dog-fighting rings are and how popular they are. A lot of them go unknown and could be happening in your own backyard. Just how many dogs do you think this involves? How many of those dogs get injured or die during this so called "attraction"? Is this the way an animal should be treated?Answer all of these questions and then tell me if you are still able to sit back while all this goes on. 

The fact that it was in Ohio is another big factor. That's to close for comfort for me. I believe that animals should be treated with love and should not be taught to be aggressive. The Humane Society of the United States is a big help and as a pet owner, and a pet lover, I appreciate everything they do. I want to send out a big thank you to them and I believe that everyone else should to!
