Are Traditional Bows humane?
Justin Snyder:
I heard about a hound guy the other day that was convicted of animal cruelty here in the states for culling a litter of unwanted puppies from his own dog. He hit them on the head with a hammer. I'm not quite sure how that was cruel, but the judge said it was. Justin
D. Tiller:
Justin, pounding a puppies brains out sounds pretty cruel to me. Could have taken em to the pound or just given them away. There is always an alternative in this type of case.

Nothing is more humane than instant brain death. Cruelty insinuates there is pain involved. One of the local shelters puts them in a garage with a vehicle running. Justin
D. Tiller:
Lets see, pound will first try and get someone to take them home with them? Only after a certain time period do they put em under. Might actually be someone out there who might have wanted one of them puppies.
Justin Snyder:
David, Im not saying it was the BEST way to deal with unwanted puppies. But thousands of puppies are culled every year by other means not as friendly as this one. My point is just that it was not cruel. You might be able to argue if it was ethical, but there is no doubt about it not being cruel. Justin
