Miami Animal Police

Does anyone watch this programme on Animal Planet. I shouldn't watch it as its so upsetting with some horiffic stories of animal abuse. On thing I really admire is the fact that the animal officers have the same powers as the police and arrest people for some shocking deeds and carry these arrests throw and send people to prison for hefty amounts of time.

Why cann't the animal welfare organisations here in the UK take a leaf out of their book and really stamp down on people who abuse animals, its a crime and should be treated as one.

Fair play Miami Animal police there doing a fantastic job.

I stopped watching it ages ago. My sister used to work for the Houston animal control dept. After what she told me about the way Houston pound used to treat the animals that were brought into there, the program seemed to lose it's appeal

Obviously not all pounds in America did this, but it made me think

I love it when the owers get fined and even go to prison for their despicable cruelty on animals but still feel so sad for the animal in question, especially if the have to be put to sleep solely because of the actions of these wicked owners.
