Tossed Dogs

Don't mess with this angry pup. It just took care of a pair of unruly socks & it will take care of you next.

Most dogs aren't so tough or so lucky. A Brooklyn man was arrested Wednesday after beating his mother with a vacuum cleaner and then tossing the family dog out the window of a fifth-floor apartment, authorities said.

The dog, a 55-pound pit bull mix named Gemini, was killed.

In September, a Yorkshire terrier named Poochie died after being thrown out a sixth-floor window during a domestic dispute in Brooklyn.

What is it about Brooklyn and loons pitching dogs out windows?

People, toss your salads, not your pups.

If you're a dog, avoid Brooklyn.
What's the matter with those dog-tossing people??
That is just nuts!

Dog-tossing isn't the only reason to avoid Brooklyn.

Everyone at my office thinks that looks too much like a hedgehog to be a dog. Either way, I love the expression on its face.

When I was a kid, my friends & I threw objects out the window at unsuspecting passersby, but never living things. That is so cruel.
Imagine the final moments of those poor dogs' lives...

I know they were requesting the right to shoot stray cats in Wisconsin, but don't know where the cat-tossing capital is.
