Persuasive Speech About Animal Abuse

Have you ever seen a dog, mainly a pitbull, on a heavy chain, with scars all over, and starved looking. If you have that dog was most likely a victim of dogfighting. Where they are forced to fight for their lives every second of every day.

To prevent dogfighting, the sentencing and fines need to be increased, have a dogfighting registry for the offenders, and implement animal cruelty officers.

In Maryland, Mrs. Allison cannot allege strict liability for damages incurred to her daughter by the Huffs’ boxer dog, Stella. To allege strict liability, an owner must take responsibility for the actions of their dog but only if the owner knew of the dog’s propensity to harm mankind. See Slack v. Villari, 476 A.2d 227, 232 (Md. Ct. Spec. App. 1984). The issue pertains to whether or not the Huffs knew about Stella’s potential to attack mankind. If Mr. and Mrs. Huff knew of Stella’s dangerous behavior, Mrs. Allison can allege for damages and successfully win in court. However, it is unlikely. Although Stella bit Danielle Allison, the evidence indicates that the Huffs had no prior knowledge to reasonably foresee Stella’s attack. Their knowledge

They are also by far the most euthanized breed. 1 million pit bulls are euthanized per year, that is 2,800 per day. Most pit bulls are sweet, loving dogs.

They all deserve a chance, even the aggressive pit bulls.

Pit Bulls are not vicious animals. Why are pitbulls feared? These poor animals are beaten, sometimes they are beaten to death. These human beings are making these animals vicious and mean, it’s not the breed that makes them this way, it’s people, humankind destroying these poor animals lives, putting fear and danger in the minds.

Why do people continue to beat these animals people ask, There is no answer, no law stating no animal abuse so no stopping it. These poor precious animals have a soul, and feelings to. If these animals continue to be treated this way they will continue to be aggressive towards people.

Every 10 seconds, a dog is abused. Puppy mills are the main reason. They cause 4-5 million dogs to die each year. Dogs obviously can’t talk, which makes it hard for them to fight back and have their say. So why aren’t governments making them illegal? Because it makes them rich! The government gets millions of dollars off of puppy mills, so they don’t care if animals suffer. We all need to step up and fight back against puppy mills.

Animals should not be required to be tested on before the use of a medical drug, cosmetic, or food additive.
