So don’t get mad at Freakboy for lifting his curious puppy Brutus during his knee suspension with Jimi and Mineiro of Diabos Mutantes in So Paulo, Brasil… Speaking of puppies…
If the dog didn’t like it, he’d bite him

- What Lifts the Body, Shifts the Soulby JonathonFirst suspensions are rarely just about the body— they’re a meeting point between the physical and the deeply personal.

aw, I miss my dogs
the look on the dog’s face is priceless “hey, what the fuck is going on here?”
POOR DOG
the dog just looks weirded out
Dogbasturd…
aww, cute! the boy looks so happy, and the pup’s a darling too. (there’s an awful lot of pit puppies that LOVE being manhandled like that, so no worries!)
Awwww. I like these pictures. They are super cute!
the dog is all “Baroo?”
I disagree with comment 6, no dog likes being manhandled.
A dog behaves exactly like it bought up by its owners.
Treat a dog badly, and its going to turn out mean. Most dogs turn nasty out of fear, I believe their motive to be attack before im hurt myself.
Maybe miss lila, you would like to be lifted by someone grabbing your skin, then hanging up upside down by your legs…
How anyone can abuse any kind of animal leaves me cold inside.
and how easy would it be for that dog to wiggle out of his grip if he was really having such a terrible time?
very.
My puppy likes to be “manhandled” like that… its just playing. and technically when you say “would you like to be lifted by someone grabbing your skin”… dont people who suspend do that on a regular basis (to some extent)?
have you ever put two puppies (or adult dogs for that matter) together. they play fight and manhandle (doghandle?) each other. dogs are more robust than some people give them credit for. and that skin he’s picking him up by is there with that slack for just that reason. its how mother dogs would pick up their children.
if that dog really had a problem with being picked up he would have deffinatly let the dude know.
Surely if people decide to suspend thats their choice isnt it?
My dogs love to be roughed up a bit when they are played with, that does not mean I lift them by their legs. In fact they bait me to play with them.
There is also a big difference in the weight of a puppy whos mother picks it up by its skin and a fully grown dog!
If its that dudes dog, then it would to a certain extent let the dude abuse him, dosnt mean to say he enjoys it, does it?
Next people will be saying dog fighting is an amusing family sport.
No cruelty to an animal is acceptable under any circumstance.
Both mother dogs and trained veterinary professionals lift puppies and kittens by their skin like that.
Plus the dog is CLEARLY smiling in the second picture. And that’s consent enough for me…..I mean….Uhh…..
The point being @ comment 13, that is not a puppy or a kitten big diff in the weight!
Wanna borrow my contacts Ant, I cant see a smile on that dogs face?
I think it is a puppy. And it does look like it’s having fun.
But I’m not argueing with you. Not because I don’t think I’m right, but because i don’t want to disturb the peace in a place I’m so fond of such as modblog. Peace out…
erm tbh its happend now stop crying about it, its a good picture admire the picture…jesus grow up hes not actually killing the dog hes giving the dog a ralitively painless free suspension experience…dogs should feel it to
Comment @ 16, just because its over does it make it ok?
So, just because hes not actually killing the dog, its also ok?
Who says the dog wants a relatively painless suspension.
Did the dog actually ask to feel suspension?
I think not, so grow up. Cruelty to animals is never acceptable, whether its to make a picture for idiots like you to admire or for some other futile reason!!
do you think cruilty to ÈMþRꧧ is just cause aswell??
just stop arguing over modblog…its pointless, its a good picture shannon saw that thts why he posted it
As the title says, If the dog didn’t like it, he’d bite him.
Great modblog stamp by the way.
thankyou leroy,
love these pictures! it reminds me of my dog. when i hold him upside down he gives me dog kisses wherever he can reach.
Surely Ozmo, some pictures Shannon posts are to cause controversy and debate?
Most of the postings here that have the most replies are pictures like this.
i just think its silly arguing about this picture, and i have nothing agianst your beleifs atall your allowed them, but we both have different opinions so i just want to leave it at that
And here I was thinking Shannon posted it because it was interesting and cute.
Its not just a picture is it tho.
And yeah I have very strong beliefs where animals are concerned, they bring joy and happiness to 1,000s of people it just pisses me off when they are abused in any way.
And you can just leave it like that Ozmo, dont respond anymore 🙂
that was slightly rude of you ÈMþRꧧ but ill leave it at that
Ozmo, now you sure you can leave it *wink lol 🙂
very patronising
hehe, Thought you were leaving it 🙂
And yeah it was rude, but..my passion is animal welfare cannot help myself.
i said i understand ur opinions and i was going to leave it like no more arguing on the subject, i appologize for my argument but we cant all beleive the same thing leaving it now, and theres no need to be rude as i am being mature about this situation
Dude, just smile and agree. I’m enjoying this VEAL too much to care.
Ozmo, if I caused you offence I apologise.
But im not apologizing for my beliefs on animal welfare.
OMG Ant your eating veal I hope it chokes you no offence an all.
Oh Ant next time you fancy a nice slice of veal, pick up the knife yourself and look into that beautiful little calfs eyes as you slaughter it…maybe it would not taste quite so nice.
i didnt say you had to, i agree with your beleifs but i still think this is a good picture, i dont want or wish upon anybody to say sorry for what they beleive in, i think your a good person for what you beleive in(ok here comes someone with the line *so children what have we learnt today*) end. and thankyou for apologising
So, Ozmo has your lesson today been, its really not good to hang dogs upside down by their legs to make a picture?
yes and that ÈMþRꧧ has good beleifs and i should look into my own, (Y) goodnight im english its late
Goodnight yourself Ozmo, im also English.
Anymore argueing and I will expect a mug of horlicks to sustain me through this arguement.
Nite Nite sweet dream.
#33 – You just made me choke on my drink from laughing!!
The dog looks slightly bewildered but I’m sure if it objected it’d make sure the guy knew.
The second pic is cute as hell =)
ÈMþRꧧ where in england are you from??
Why have you made me horlicks lol?
ÈMþRꧧ – dear god… having strong beliefs about such matters is fine and sticking to them is commendable – forcing said beliefs down other people’s throats is not.
I sympathised with you up until the “I hope it chokes you” comment. That really was a step too far. For shame.
lol nah im just intersted thats all…
Oh and if you’re offering, I could really go for a mug of horlicks right now.. and a couple of bourbon biscuits… and if you could run ‘em down to Southend for me that’d be ace =)
lol aglet from the IOW i think not and bourbon…custurd creams mate
Whoa small world. Southend as in Southend on Sea?
Yep Ant.. hold on, I’ll track you down on MySpace to save clogging up modblog with any more off-topic banter!!
Now Ozmo, I thought you had gone to sleep, im from central uk 🙂
Sorry aglet, I rarely show shame, especially if someone is eating a very young animal thats had no life. Most times they are farm reared into the bargain.
ÈMþRꧧ i was but this is getting interesting i love meeting ppl from the uk spesh on BME anyone form the uk willing to post a myspace url??
