| "A chained animal is caught in a vicious cycle; frustrated by long periods of boredom and social isolation, he becomes a neurotic shell of his former self --further deterring human interaction and kindness. In the end, the helpless dog can only suffer the frustration of watching the world go by in isolation -- a cruel fate for what is by nature a highly social animal. Any city, county, or state that bans this practice is a safer, more humane community." - The Humane Society of the United States. |
