I had to hug Cammy after watching that news report, even the little bit they showed was almost too much.

HELP FLAG THIS YOUTUBE VIDEO - Doberman Mauling and Killing Helpless Cat

I am in tears right now just from watching the news cast & I think the scariest part, in addition to that precious kitty getting mauled, is that my boyfriend wants a doberman, I always thought they were mean dogs & now after seeing that I would rather die than get a dog that's capable of doing such a terrible thing...
Noooooo.... never blame the breed! There is nothing wrong with Dobermans at all. Dobermans are sweet, sweet dogs. I grew up with Dobermans as my uncle was a fan, out of the four he had only one was vicious and that was only because he was severely abused (Regularly hit with a thick chain). My uncle stole him from a truck when the real owner went shopping. The other Dobermans were total lap dogs, they actually got robbed once and when they came home the dog was sleeping on the couch...some guard dog.
I donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t think anyone should go around blaming a breed as this causes abuse, and neglect for these breeds. Never blame a breed for a stupid owner. There are only mean, cruel, stupid people.... not dogs.
As for this newscast. I tried to watch it but once a saw a tree and a cat i turned it off. It was maybe 1 second in and i got all teary eyed and quickly shut it off. I still feel sad for this cat. Being as i didn't see the cast did they catch this guy? Whats going on? Do they know who he is? Will he be charged? What of the dog?
EDIT: I also wanted to add that Brunos girlfriend is a Doberman. She lives with 4 cats one who beats her up all the time and makes her cry... poor girl.
EDIT #2: LOL i tried to add this to the above post.... oh boy.... its going to be a long day!
so it's ok to have a doberman with cats in the house? I'm not very educated on dogs as I've always been a cat person! LOL
I can't watch the video at work and I'm not sure I want to
but is there a link to someone at the police or news that we can contact or email about this? We need to flood them like we did for Dusty.
May that poor sweet baby RIP

It sure is. Depending on the dog. I wouldn't trust the dog in the video with my cats, but i would trust my dogs girlfriend, Charlotte, with my cats. Its probably how they are raised though. The idiot in the video probably got a Doberman because they are scary looking, where as Charlotte's Mom got her to cuddle and spoil.Originally Posted by yourbriness763

This is probably another thread but it really depends on how the dog is raised, the breed (some dogs have high prey drives, so its harder to train) and how its trained. Not all dogs can be trusted with cats, but not all dogs will kill a cat. My dog is a Rottie x Shepherd. All my cats cuddle with him and the most vicious thing he does to them is slobber all over them with kisses lol.
Its harder to get a dog with cats i think because in the beginning you always have to watch them. Not only that you have to spend time researching and finding a dog that gets along with cats. Thats with any breed though, not just Dobies
Our next choice was going to be a rotweiler or a boxer, I prefer the rot just because I have always liked rots - any thoughts on how these dogs get along with cats? I personally would prefer not to have any dogs LOL but he is a dog lover so I guess I will have to give in...
That is horrible!! When they catch that loser, they need to burn him alive. That may sound bad, I do not care. Or, I have a better idea. We can bring this loser to my friends place. Put him in his tigers cage and let that tiger do what his dog did to that cat. We can post that on youtube. Justice served!!
If you want my outlook on the situation...
I'd like to know why YouTube consistantly allows videos like this to sit on there for weeks, days, or hours. When you put up a music copyright violation, it gets removed within hours. It really upsets me that this man was allowed the attention he wanted from this video because YouTube doesn't keep after things like that. Just feels like they honestly don't care.
I assure you the video was flagged at least a week before this, I have a friend who I forwarded it to who said he already saw and flagged that same video...

Money. It's all what could potentially cost them money. Copyright infringement could potentially cost them big, big bucks, but animal abuse? They've got nothing to lose by dragging their feet on it. Never underestimate the power of the almighty dollar!Originally Posted by plainjane

That sounds like a good plan to me!
Yea, I figured it was because of lawsuit issues, but am hoping people try to push this and other violent movies posted on YouTube as legal issues, because they are.Originally Posted by clixpix

I feel that if they keep it on their website after it's flagged, they're okay with and promoting it. End of story.
I was crying the second I started watching that newscast
How can someone do that to a poor innocent animal!? And train one of the sweetest breeds of dogs to attack and kill another animal?! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS WORLD??!!
May justice be served and may this man rot for what he did!

OMG I just saw the news cast on it! That is beyond horrible!! I am just at a lost for words right now, i dont know how someone can be that sick and demented! I agree with putting this person in a tiger cage and let him get torn into shreds...id pay to see it done!
Poor kitty, may you rest in peace beautiful kitty
Poor kitty, may you rest in peace beautiful kitty
Amen! I totally agree!
I didn't watch the news report because I just can't. I admire all of you who are standing up and doing something about this. I agree, this so called man should be ripped to shreds...
I never watched the youtube video thank God, but I did see the clip from the news article and I can not get that image out of my head. That poor cat
May you now be at peace and comfort in God's loving arms
When I see what some people like that can do, it makes me lose faith in the human race. But I know that a person like that is just a small fraction of society. Sadly, when they catch whomever did this, I doubt they will get much of a punishment.

I completely agree with you. Maybe a group of the litigious types can get a class action suit together for "emotional distress" or some such thing...go after their pocketbooks, and they'll pay attention!Originally Posted by plainjane
