FOR CONGO'S LIFE

The following letter is the one I sent to Governor Cozine to protect Congo's life. A case that has been in the New Jersey's news.
Dear Governor Corzine:
I'm very concerned about the case of the German Shepard, Congo.
When we review Congo’s case it seems that we have given too many human characteristics to animals, we had anthropomorphised this animal so much, up to the point that we are limiting his period of life for loving and defending his owner.
We teach animals to behave the way we want according to some rules, so when we humans expect something different from them we automatically punish them for our inconsistency, for not being faithful to our rules. Dogs give unconditional love, care and protection to humans, and that’s what Congo did, nothing different. The dog was protecting the property because he was taught to do that. The dog was just obeying the rules when the estranger came into the house without permission from the owners.
According to the owner’s lawyer, Robert Lytle (a person who knows New Jersey’s laws well), “… the dogs had a right to protect themselves and their owner”.

Please do anything that is in your power to prevent anyone from hurting or killing this animal.

Thank you for your time, Dilia Foreman.
