Gary L. Francione Quotes About Dogs

• Michael Vick may enjoy watching dogs fight. Someone else may find that repulsive but see nothing wrong with eating an animal who has had a life as full of pain and suffering as the lives of the fighting dogs. It's strange that we regard the latter as morally different from, and superior to, the former.

  Dog, Pain, Fighting

• There is no difference between sitting around the pit watching dogs fight and sitting around a summer barbecue roasting the corpses of tortured animals or enjoying the dairy or eggs from tortured animals.

  Summer, Dog, Fighting

• Pero si quedaran dos perros en el universo y de nosotros dependiera que pudieran reproducirse para que pudiéramos seguir viviendo con perros, e incluso si pudiéramos garantizar que todos los perros tuvieran hogares tan cariñosos como el que les proporcionamos, no dudaríamos ni un segundo en poner fin a toda la institución de la propiedad de "mascotas".

  Gary L. Francione

  Perro, Hogar, Animal

• I certainly believe that we have a moral obligation to care for the dogs, cats, and other nonhumans whose existence we have caused or facilitated as part of the institution of 'pet' ownership. But I maintain that we ought to abolish the institution and stop causing or facilitating the existence of more 'companion' animals.

  Gary L. Francione
