I used to think keeping my rabbits outside was abuse because I watched a certain KZreadr for all my rabbit care, but when it got too hot at the start of the summer I moved them to a “summer house” outside (kinda like a shed but bigger) and they’ve been much happier, they can get plenty of air flow and no predators can even see into it. I was against it at first but every room they have lived in indoors they have completely destroyed any carpets and peed on the walls which they don’t do in their shed. I really appreciate your videos because I’m able to educate the people around me and give my pets the most enriching life :)

Moving them outside because it's hot was NOT a correct track, not unless you have a way to keep them cool. Inside a house tends to be cooler then putting them outside.

So glad to hear a voice of reason when it comes to outside rabbits. It's so annoying when people (especially Americans) scream abuse at keeping rabbits outside, when it's perfectly fine to do so here. I follow German rabbit owners with gorgeous enclosures that are larger than my own house! People just don't (want to) understand that with enough awareness and planning, it's perfectly possible to provide a safe and enriching environment for them. Also, I think it's funny that the people who yell the loudest about keeping rabbits outside being abuse, are the same people who keep single rabbits and think they can replace their social need.... the sheer dissonance 😂

@baltobud8 I get what you are saying, but I think the concern is more than just the enclosure/housing setup. I agree, I’ve seen some amazing outdoor setups in the UK online, but the additional concern to outdoor housing is the greater risk of being attacked by a predator (maybe that’s less of a problem in other countries?) and how often the rabbits are less integrated into the families so the subtle behavioral changes that could indicate illness or injury can be overlooked until it’s too late. I am not one of those people who will argue one way is better than the other as I fully believe each situation is unique and should be addressed individually. But as someone who has spoken to many of people (I’m from the eastern side of the US) who have had their rabbits killed by predators getting into their enclosures or dying from illness from infections caused by various outdoor factors (such as botflies burrowing in their skin), I personally feel much safer having my pair free roam my house. Again, no hate towards your comment, just offering a little more context because if there’s one thing I’ve learned from some very vocal people is their delivery of whatever the intended message is lost because of how they approached the topic.

That's because here in Germany the climate is well suited to rabbits. Keeping rabbits outside in Texas would absolutely be abuse, it's way too hot. Rabbits are native here and adapted to our temperatures Same reason why outdoor cats are way less bad in Europe than on other continents, they are an established part of the ecosystem for a long long time and present no actual risk of ecological collapse in Germany for example. In countries like Australia, NZ or even the US cats are invasive species that DO pose a risk to local ecological systems. Different areas have different conditions

One of my cats is half feral and he needs supervision outside so he doesn’t go crazy and catch any birds. Supervised time in the garden/on a harness is how I do it 😊

I agree with your opinions on pretty much every topic discussed in this video. I especially agree with "behavioral euthanasia" being necessary in some extreme cases, but *not* if they haven't tried everything available to them to correct the behavior issue(s). Too many animals, especially dogs, are put to sleep because of a behavior that could possibly be corrected with the right technique, environment and/or person. I find it very upsetting when an animal isn't given a proper chance of overcoming an undesirable/dangerous habit/behavior (such as food aggression or animal aggression), especially if they're in a shelter/rescue environment as that's a highly stressful place to be even for a calm, easy-going animal. I also think that many animals who reside in cages and tanks deserve more enrichment than most people give them, plus a larger living space than most "minimum" size parameters call for. I understand that many people operate on a budget/smaller income and can find it hard to give animals the living space that they require to truly thrive and not just survive, but if the proper research is done *before* the animal is adopted/purchased/acquired, this shouldn't be as big of an issue as it often is. I believe if people can spend hours scrolling through social media posts and watching videos, they should be more than able to do at least *basic* research such as enclosure size for an *adult* as many animals grow rather quickly, food requirements, heat/lighting, substrate/bedding, humidity parameters, etc. I honestly don't understand how people can go out and buy/adopt an animal like a reptile or exotic animal without knowing what they require for proper care at the very least. I've seen so many posts in FB groups and other places saying something like "Just got this snake and I need to know what I should get for it" and there's a picture of a ball python in a 10 gallon tank with a red light, heat rock, reptile carpet, half log "hide" and every side of the tank is uncovered. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤬 Just do your research BEFORE you get the animal! I'm not saying you should be an "expert" before you get an animal, but knowing basically *nothing* is unacceptable in my opinion.

I'd love to own a working dog but it is because I enjoy the training aspect and I see that as the absolute best part about dogs in general, getting to train and comunicate with my pet is what I love about any pet. I get surprised every time I hear someone not thinking that is the most fun part, guess that's my unpopular opinion; "Training is the best way to bond + spend time with a dog"

I definitely agree that the minimum rat cage size should be bigger, at least 100cmx50cm in floorspace. In my country a lot of people will still keep them in cages that are less than 80cmx50cm, so that sucks. But that's a issue with all the small pets here (and everywhere), people think that "love" is enough and pets don't have need for space and enrichment. Also another "fun" argument is that, "there are homeless people, so how dare you care about the wellbeing of my pet". 😂

Cats outdoors; cars, coyotes, hawks, other cats. All of my cats have been 100% inside and have lived to over 15 years each. (Morris 16, Miss Kitty 17, Raven 15.5, and Veruca 15.75)

I have two cats and the one is absolutely petrified of being outside of the house! Even just being out in the indoor hallway outside of our apartment was too much for her. The most she ever went outside willingly was out on our patio and even then she’d barely be outside the door. My other cat is a little more adventurous than the aforementioned one is, but she doesn’t have much interest in the outside world apart from sun bathing on the patio and watching the birds lol

I think it's okay to label an >8 week old puppy as an assistance dog in training if you are socializing them to things they will experience in their career, but are unlikely to encounter a pet friendly equivilant during the crucial socialization period. For instance, taking a future seeing eye dog to a football game or concert. I completely agree that they should not be focusing on actual assistance training at this age though.

Being respectful, talking and educating people goes a lot farther in terms of convincing people to hear you out or give it a try, which in turn helps more animals!😊 I just assume people who do these things are vegans just to say they are/to seem like good people, because if they really cared about the animals, they'd look into better ways of persuading people than hate and judgement.

When engaging in outreach about veganism, I strive to be respectful and understanding, recognizing that everyone is on their own journey of awareness. However, when individuals are fully aware of the harm they are causing and choose to continue, it seems reasonable to express judgment. I believe this is a natural response, much like one might express judgment towards those who commit heinous acts to other humans. It's about holding individuals accountable for their actions. The idea that people advocating against animal abuse do so to feel superior lacks thoughtful consideration. The inclination to perceive vegans this stems from individuals grappling with their own cognitive dissonance. It's uncomfortable for many to confront the dissonance between professing a dislike for animal abuse while actively supporting it. Instead of facing this internal conflict, some individuals project it onto those who align their actions with their ethical beliefs and genuinely practice what they preach. Your comment is a perfect example of this.

Thank you for highlighting working dogs and their suitability as pets following the border collie opinion. I’ve had working cocker spaniels for years, my two both work on a shoot doing what they were bred to do, however I also know many that do agility and obedience. My two first and foremost are family pets, and I always tell people considering them that you won’t find a better pet dog PROVIDING you can stimulate the part of their brain that wants a job to do. So many people buy ‘trending’ dogs without factoring in the needs of the breed......

I agree with two. The its the owner not the breed is mostly true but when getting a dog you do very much need to consider what the dog originally is bred for and what job (even just a pet) they are best for or best for your life style. Then in that case someone ill informed or ignorant about the breed messed up. Also the training young dogs. I started training with my service dog at age 5months, when had become potty trained. However it mainly was to get him out. See things, experience the world. He did have an in training vest on but its cause I wanted people to treat him already as a service dog not a cute puppy you can run up to or distract. Expectations were lower for my you g dog, since he still was doing obedience, but I wanted to mix obedience with distinctions after a while of training. I feel its more unfair to train them and never expose them to outside distractions or possible scary things, such as a loud bang in Home Depot, and working through it.

I think task training should always be fun regardless of the age but because she’s such a high energy breed she really enjoys learning new things and picks them up quickly so I don’t worry too much that it’ll be too soon for her 😊

I think pets should be licensed like cars. People should have to take a test or have a guardian who took the test. If you want to breed there should be a license on top.

@nzpaws

9 ай бұрын

We used to have licenses! I recon a license to breed and own any animal will drastically reduce annual animal cruelty cases, alongside a public access test when dogs turn 12 months old to ensure they’re safe to be in public. Governments can use vets as a first line to ensure all owners have licenses, by requiring this information upon registration + on their microchip. The other ways in which it’s enforced would be more difficult, but definitely require severe punishments - like a ban from owning dogs if you’re found to be backyard breeding them. The only concern for me would be the governments interest in profit, which may make affording a license extremely difficult for many existing dog owners unless welfare organisations are able to lobby a deal that ensures it’s a fair price. Ultimately, a ban on any breed of dog will only end up widening, as irresponsible owners will move onto the next breed available which will eventually also be deemed as dangerous and banned, so trying to solve the problem instead of using scapegoats is vital in offering a permanent solution to reducing dog attacks and improving overall animal welfare

Some dogs definitely need to be put down for behavioural issues, particularly larger aggressive breeds, as evidenced by the serious dog attacks regularly reported on the news. Dogs are a pet that can kill people, so those with any dangerous behaviours need to be kindly PTS

People tamed and bred dogs to be man's best friend, to not be so independent and to heavily rely on us. we bred them to help us with hunting, searching, herding and so much more (and that doesn't include eating them lol). that's why we have so many breeds such as the blood hound and dachshund. As for farm animals such as pigs and cows they were bred to be livestock I'm not saying they can't be your friend it's just a fact and I do believe all livestock animals deserve good lives and to be killed in the most humane way possible. It's cruel to breed an animal to be your best friend and to be so heavily dependent on you just to abuse them to death and eat them.

Pigs and dogs are both sentient and have similar levels of intelligent and emotional capacity to understand what’s about to happen to them when they’re going through the process of being turned into food. I just think regardless of the benefit the animal itself brings us whether that’s a job, companionship like dogs or a livestock animal that doesn’t, they equally deserve to not suffer any distress or pain before they die, which unfortunately is still the case in a lot of fast paced food industries.
