Bumped -The Lennox Saga – An Important Story For Dog Lovers
Sign the petition – time is running out. Just a few hours left.
Have you guys been following the story of a dog in Belfast who is going to be euthanized because he looks like a pit bull? Ireland has a zero tolerance for the breed, and a family with special needs children is going to have their beloved pet destroyed simply for the way he looks, not how he acts.
The Barbi Twins are well known animal lovers and have taken up the very interesting cause of shedding light on this animal discrimination.
The Barbi Twins Present Their First ‘Dog’umentary
Shane and Sia Barbi want you to meet Lennox, star of their first feature “dog”umentary called “I Have a Dream.” -Movie poster can be seen here.
For more information, visit the Barbi Twins’ Facebook page!
Here’s a bit more of the poor dog’s story at WAPO, Telegraph

I didn’t know Ireland had death panels. Doesn’t Obama have roots there?

I used to love it when the Barbi Twins showed off their sweater puppies instead.

This is just like the supreme idiocy called “hate crimes legislation”, where the act seems to matter less than the victim’s appearance or sexual habits.
Ireland is gong broke but it’s worried about zero tolerance for certain types of DOGS? It’s do better with zero tolerance for certain types of idiot people.

Hmmm, I also have zero tolerance for Pitt Bulls…must be the Irish in me…
when I say “zero tolerance” I mean having one in a family neighborhood setting.

Q: What has four legs and one arm?
A: A pit bull !
I kid, I kid….
One of the nicest doggies I ever knew was my neighbor’s female Pit Bull. They raised her from a puppy. Every time I came home from work she was at the fence wagging her tail hello. I always went over to her to pet her and scratch her ears and give her a doggie treat. Very sweet tempered.
The dumb Micks must hate that dog because it’s breed is AMERICAN Pit Bull. No more Guinness Beer for me.

Between my two kids, they have three pitbulls. And I can tell you that they are three of the sweetest dogs ever.
When my oldest child was a toddler, we lived in an apartment complex where the next door neighbors had a pitbull. That dog was so loving, playful and protective of my child.
I have yet to encounter a pitbull, rotweiller, doberman or German shepherd that was horribly vicious. All have been sweet babies.

This is only tangentially about Pits. Lennox is being killed because he looks like one, but isn’t.
None of his kin looks like pits. He was born looking wrong in a Kill City.

This is insanity.
Is there not a vet or breeder in the country who could attest to the dog’s pedigree?
This just makes me sick!
I applaud the Barbi twins for the work they are doing!
It’s heartbreaking…I know I couldn’t do it.

Sorry, Fur, but I disagree.
This is 100% about Pitts. If the breed wasn’t targeted, what the dog looks like wouldn’t matter.

Humanity has gone insane.
Without SCOTUS voting on the outcome the dog stands a chance.

gENL rIPPER is right – Boycott Guinness Beer – Ireland’s only real income.
