Preventing Animal Cruelty and Torture Act.
Preventing Animal Cruelty and Torture (PACT) Act The PACT Act closes that loophole by extending federal jurisdiction to these specific, particularly heinous crimes. The PACT Act is consistent with other federal laws that address acts of malicious animal cruelty that have an interstate nexus.

A fantastic add on to the bill passed in 2010, and proves that we can pass laws, and do it without the partisan wrangling.
Kudos to,Blumenthal and Toomey for this. I still think it is too narrow, but it is a great supplement to existing state laws. |

I think older people have closer relationships with their furry family member than younger segments of the population. I know it makes me happy to see here in The Villages. My two favorite dogs here are Lucy and Crosby. I haven't met Bare's new furries.
I do not understand anyone who is deliberately cruel to an animal for some sick purpose, I am sure few do. I was pleased to see this dog get the credit it deserved this last week. For some time the dog involved in killing that awful person in Afganistan was not named but now we find his name is Conan. He will always be "Good Boy" to me.....See here.... https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...baghdadi-raid/

And for the record, you refer to Conan as a "Good Boy".....believe Conan is female, despite all the confusion on that subject |

Conan's gender
There were conflicting reports on Conan's gender. Newsweek initially reported that the dog is female, but the magazine later issued a correction which said Conan is male. Dutch RTL Nieuws reported that Conan was trained by a company in Best, Netherlands before being transported to the United States. His former owner and trainer stated in an interview: "It is a five-year-old male. It is a very good dog."[11] On November 25, 2019, a White House official said the dog is female before issuing a correction, saying Conan is in fact male.[1][12] Wikipedia: Declassified image of Conan, the dog who chased al-Baghdadi.jpg The declassified image of Conan tweeted by Donald Trump Species Dog Breed Belgian Malinois Sex Male[1] Born 2013 or 2014 (aged 5–6) Netherlands Notable role Special Operations Military Working Dog (SOMWD) in the US Delta Force Years active 2015–present Named after Conan O'Brien Woof! |

While some are obsessed with the dogs sex...yeah, I mentioned it because it was humorous, no mention of the link to hero dogs link and they are under appreciated for sure, so let me bore you a bit more with ...
Military Working Dogs: Canine War Heroes Through History Dogs have served us in military for a long time. I spent time in Aleutian Islands while in the Navy, and the love for a few dogs we took care of was amazing. |

Someone may have objected to the words on one of the pictures of Conan the dog that helped take down the head of Isis. I will repost with no words. He is a hero.

First according to the OP it was about the addendum to a law, then it was about hero dogs. I responded to each based on what was posted, then it became something else so I am confused on the motive for this thread as it became very specific suddenly. Not unusual, but certainly it seems the OP had no intention of discussing the law, the reason for it, etc, but something else I do need to mention Rep. Ted Deutch and also Rep. Vern Buchanan BOTH FROM FLORIDA who began the process and pushed it through the house. I had already mentioned the Senate leaders and all, even though it was totally bipartisan n nature. Any law protecting animals is a good law and keep in mind, the law extends well beyond dogs. Last edited by Bucco; 11-26-2019 at 07:37 PM. |
