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

ÈMþRê§§ – I’m vegetarian and sickened by veal. But people know where it comes from and if they want that on their conscience then it’s up to them. Ant was clearly joking – possibly in poor taste (I thought it was funny as fuck, but that’s just me) but it was far from serious nonetheless =)
ÈMþRê§§ been buggin me, are you male or female? and do you have a myspace? and english folk do you guys no anywhere where i can get silicone plugs or tunnels for 20mm??
aglet, actually I laughed myself at his comment, dont tell him tho *wink.
I love poking the stick in the hornets nest giving it a good stir and standing back 🙂
Im female Ozmo.
I have seen somewhere on here where to get silicone plugs from, cannot remember where tho.
Ask Shannon hes usually in the know about most things to do with mods. If he dosnt know, im sure he knows a man that will.
thank you ÈMþRê§§ im going now, cya around the bend
What a load of wankage.
Aargh..meant to add:
Cute pic, cute dog, cute guy- leave it at that.
I hate getting in on stupid arguments like these but I can’t drop. You say that you can’t stand seeing animals abused and I agree with that, but how can you say that it is being abused? The picture in no way suggests that the animal is in pain or unhappy. On the contrary, in the second picture it looks quite contented leaning in to lick the suspendee’s ear.
I have nthn mor eto say than u moderators blow blow blow down the house u fuckin cum huffers ~_0 thx
what the hell is a horlick ?
and who eats puppies ?
I agree that the dog is too big to be handled that way. Why not pick it up around the chest/hind quarter area? You may be the owner, but that doesn’t mean you get to do whatever you want to the animal, especially one that trusts you so blindly. I think a dog should be taught to be good around people, particularly bull terrier types who get a bad press at the best of times.
But overall yeah, everyone is entitled to their opinions.
You’re all misinformed.. Mother cats and dogs do not scruff their kittens and puppies, they do not grab from the skin. They have a hold of the neck and the skin, which is considerably less painful and at that age usually they have more of a pain tolerance. Hence cropping and docking being done to dogs at a very young age.
Anyways, regarding Shannon’s title comment, dogs will not always bite if they do not like it. Humans are the alpha of the pack, and that dog looks frightened by the fact that it’s guardian is dangling it by the feet, which can and will injure the dogs legs and dislocate something if the dog chose it wanted down. It’s dangerous for the dog’s well-being.
It looks as if the dog was licking the guys ear, judging by how close the snout is to the face, or nosing him. Dogs lick and mouth at a dominant or alpha dogs face and nose to show submission. When I clip my dogs nails she licks my face as in a “No please don’t” sort of thing. The animal doesn’t look like it’s having fun, it looks scared..
Sure, the photo looks cool… but at the expense of frightening an animal.
This is a tough crowd.
Almost makes me not want to send in my beasteality(sp) pics.
I like veal… i guess its just me but theres not much on my conscience about eating it.
also, telling someone to choke on it because of YOUR beliefs.. stupid. I’m fine with people having their own views but dont force them on anyone else.
And who is to say the dog does or doesnt like it? When i hold my cat upside down she purrs, and when i put her down she runs back for more.
are you a dog whisperer?
THIS IS NOT ANIMAL CRUELTY !!! opinions are like assholes… everyone’s got ‘em and most of them smell like shit… well, my cat just had a litter and the buckets almost full… now where’s that lid… oh, and i find it amusing that people who are sooo into animal rights wish harm on humans that they believe are hurting animals… hypocritical bullshit… SAVE THE ANIMALS, KILL THE HUMANS !!! keep yer opinion firmly between yer cheeks where it belongs… pucker up butter-cup…
P.E.T.A… Pretty Edible Tastey Animals…
man… its like that pic when the guy pierced his goldfish and people freaked out and complained. I should start postin pics of animals suspending or with impalnts
I though people in England spoke english but i didn’t even understand half of that fight/conversation O_o
Even if how he’s picking up the dog could in some way injure it, it’s not like that’s his intention, mistakes and animal cruelty are different. I carry my cat upside down sometimes, or attack him with my foot so he can try to bite it, and he ALWAYS comes back for more attention.
I bench-press my cats when they bug me while I’m exercising. Of course, I’m supporting their weight, and they do purr and curl their toes so I’m pretty sure they’re liking it.
I think they guy suspending could’ve held the dogs weight so it was more comfortable for the dog…
Very pretty dog.
Is it dead? Who gives a fuck.
Blah blah blah spiritual blah blah blah experience blah blah blah sensation blah blah blah.
So much of what I read here is about a persons choice to do what they want with their own body. Fair enough. Impale yourself and chop your cock off until you feel that your spirituality has experienced as much sensation as you care to. Leave the animals out of it, they don’t have a choice.
Or are you guys gonna go the whole hog and just bite the heads off chickens?
You guys will bitch about everything wont you?
And this whole time that you’re bitching about a dog being held my loose skin, which doesn’t hurt the dog, or about how the dog is, GOD FORBID UPSIDE DOWN!!!
You forgot to look at the obvious, the tail is cropped. Which unlike the other two reasons to throw a fit, accually can cause alot of damnage and pain.
It looks like to me that 90% of you just look for the first thing that catches your eye and then you go on to start a rant about it, yet you don’t take the time to bother really look at the picture, nor think about what you’re saying.
Comment @ 77
Actually no I dont bitch about everything. Go read every posting I have made here. I dont complain about people spending hours in the chair getting inked or pierced. Because guess what thats their decision. People want to take multiple needles and get covered in blood play piercing thats also their decision.
When an animal dosnt look 100% comfortable of course I will say something.
So, would it be cool to hang a child upsidedown by the legs, imagine the outcry over that. Michael Jackson dangled his kid I got sick of hearing and reading that for weeks all over the TV & papers.
But its ok to do it to a poor defenceless animal….surely thats double standards.
Honesly, I think it’s funny that people have to put EVERYTHING down or find a negative resonse for everything to feel empowered! …. I say, Nice pictures!
🙂
#73/Jenny, this conversation just made me roll my eyes to heaven before… but now I have to prove that some English people are in no way mindless text-speak whores!
I am seriously considering having the rules for “its” and “it’s” tattooed on my body somewhere. That is how seriously I take English. 😀
Also, Shannon doesn’t post pictures that produce arguments to “cause controversy” – sometimes they’re posted because they’re interesting, and in the case of a couple they’re posted to bait stupid people.
If no-one was stupid, no-one would cause controversy through their daft knee-jerk reactions!
So i have no registered under multiple mod blog names how are u goin to moderate those i will give one last chance iether ban this name from here(if u can) or if u keep moderating my comments then i will be forced to huff and puff and i will blow ur site down. ~_0 Fuckers I hate evry1 who loks like my ma and babbles unitelltigle rehoric upon bozo buckets number 9 wins u the most valuable priz a zebra that has no stripes but feels like it dosnt belong anywhre but in the zzoooo with the painted horses +_*
Hey ÈMþRê§§, as far as I know, dogs aren’t defenceless… and like the original caption says, I’m sure if that dog wasn’t comfortable with what was happening to him, he WOULD make it known.
Hey gangrene,
Dogs arnt defenceless, but when an animal loves its owner it would tolerate a lot of things whether it liked the owners behaviour or not..
Does this make it right?
Lets face it judging by the comments people either love animals or have little regard for them.
Quit your bitching. Who cares about the dog? It’s not like it’s a cat, or has feelings.
But I’m pretty sure if the dog was being HURT (which seems to be the main issue here when people are crying abuse) it would fight back… dogs don’t just sit there and take it all the time. If you step on even the most placid dog, it will do SOMETHING to let you know it hurt.
And to people saying this dog is being abused, I think the whole big picture needs to be looked at, including how healthy he looks in general (which he does), and whether the owner’s intentions are indeed malicious (which they aren’t)
Gangrene, since no one can actually ask the dog, im sure we will never know.
CreativenonFiction…you should get a job as a professional aggitator, I know your joking 🙂
79. kids love being held upside down. haha. i remember when i was a kid, and it was fun. my campers loved it too, when i was a camp counselor. heck, people throw their kids in the air while they giggle with joy. and does anyone protest that? no. while i realize how some animals may enjoy while others wouldn’t, the dog would be easily able to free itself if it was truly uncomfortable, like an earlier comment said. i tried holding my dog upside down once when it was a puppy, but he didn’t like it so he wiggled free with ease, and i didn’t do it again. either way, it’s not really much of an issue. even if the dog didn’t enjoy it, this is hardly torture and there are much more serious animal rights issues to work yourself up about.
Exactly ÈMþRê§§, so why are you getting yourself worked up about it being hurt, abused, etc etc? You don’t know if it is being hurt, but you are assuming it is.
how much of my life will be spent reading the mindless drivel that is modblog comments? empress you’re a retard. My golden lab Rory bit me on several occasions over food issues, I have the scars on my hands to prove it, and we still loved eachother. r.i.p. Rory. defenseless? that puppy could kill that guy if it felt like it. Get off the computer and go for a walk you emo assholes… . . [Nice pics! . end of fucking comments]
well i like this picture and think it’s cute 🙂 and i’m not usually interested ion suspention pics.
to be honest it depends on the dog, i agree it probubly would bite if it was in pain or really scared.
but like i said depends on the dog, if my dog doesn’t liek something i do to it such as a way i pick her up or if i play too hard she’ll bite me, gentally, not hard enough to break skin just like an “oi i dont liek tht bitch!” haha, or growl at me.
and either way if it hurt the dog it would yelp and try to get away.
also, the owner probubly knows the dog alot better then we do.
cool pic, and yeh all for being against animal cruelty, but i dont think this is cruel at all!

“Maybe miss lila, you would like to be lifted by someone grabbing your skin, then hanging up upside down by your legs…
The owner seems to be enjoying being lifted by his skin and hanging upside down by his legs!
Can’t be that bad!
(Shannon, you totally do this on purpose with the animals. It’s hilarious)
That guy knows his dog better than any of you do.
Pitbulls are tough dogs (That dog is clearly part staff) They play like that.
If he didn’t want to be held like that, he wouldn’t be. If he belongs to that dude, he’d know.
I have a dog I can rough up – and he loves it.
I have another dog that if I pet him too hard he freaks out.
People can read their own animals and know their limits.
my dog would love hanging like that. when i accidentally step on his paw, he screams.
You know, some people take things way too seriously.
I’m all about being confident in your beliefs, but when it gets to the point that you think all that believe differently than you are WRONG WRONG WRONG, it’s gone too far.
Keep it to yourself or for gods’ sake, at least try not to shove your own belief down someone else’s throat.
Will yas all shut up?
It’s a nice suspension, and a cute dog.
enough children.
I think its kind of rude for people to tell others to shut up in the comments. If you don’t like what people are saying, either just leave your comment about the picture, or just simply DON’T READ through all the comments and worry about it in the first place.
I’m an animal lover and I think this looks like a fun pic. The dog looks like he’s healthy and cared for. Your pets will let you know if they don’t like something. I have a cat who LOVES to rough-house, just will not leave us alone and another who’d claw your face right off if we tried the same shit with her. I’m sure he knows what his dog’s personality will allow.
ÈMþRê§§, about what u said about how its a bit hypocritical michael jackson get critisized for danglign a baby over the balcony and this not.
well the baby could have been KILLED if he’d dropped it.
where as the lieklyness of this dog being killed if dropped from only about a foot up is unlikely
i’m not trying to argue, i’m just pointing tht out
