I was watching that GIF and wondered why the dog was alive at the end, why the dog was wagging its tail and kept calm?. For Those who haven't seen it,It shows a man pulling the rope from a pulley,the dog is panicking. Then later relaxes and wags its tail with its head up. Next to it says "I DEAD" which was the JOKE it wasnt dead! It's a training exercise! So in conclusion the video was harmless and not abuse just controversial exercise therefore Otthild can be un-banned since the GIF seemed bad but it wasnt really intentional abuse. I Say: LET HER FREE! I rest my case...[quote]However, I have also been told by a few people that it was just fine to string up a dog who needed to be disciplined. I've asked those same people if they would do this to a child or another human being, and they emphatically say, "No, of course not." Well, then, why allow it to be done to a dog? It's also useful to ask if this is a treatment that someone would want done to them, or allowed to be done to their dog or another dog — and if not, why not?
