Sled dog owners rebuttal
#1
This raises lots of questions and we may have to wait to see what happens before we know the whole story. 
The sled dog owners have defended themselves and claim the pictures were taken out of context. They also make some accusations against the OSPCA.

Some of the points raised will need to be looked at. I have never been to a sled dog site so I have no personal experience with the conditions. I will see what else I can find out.

In the article they make reference to the Toronto Humane Society case and the actions the OSPCA took. 
Rather than go into a lot of detail I will point out that I am a Toronto Humane Society Member, Donor and volunteer and I supported them 100% now and during the OSPCA case.

This is interesting, and presents a possible "other side to the story".
I have no experience either with sled dogs. From what we continually hear about animals combined with business, it is easy to think that all sled dogs have a rotten life. There is, I suppose, the possibility that not all businesses who use sled dogs treat their animals badly, and that there are good and bad operators, as there are in other walks of life......?
Please do post back if you discover anything else Catherine.

The OSPCA has posted an update on their page.

So far no dogs have been removed from the sled dog kennel. That kind of action would be in the news.

I am sure we will hear more from both sides before this is over.
