Can Dog’s Be Gay?

I’m sure you heard about the idiot owners in TN who surrendered their gorgeous pitbull/American bulldog mix not because he was an aggressive dog but because he thought he was gay. These idiot owners surrendered their dog to a kill shelter. They actually brought the dog in to be euthanized because they really thought he was gay because he was humping or as they say “hunched another male dog”!  I can’t believe how ignorant these people are. They showed the couple on TV and someone really should have slapped some sense into them.

I don’t know if animals can really be gay or not but dogs mount other dogs- male or females to express dominance or play. My female boxer used to hump any new person or dog that came into the house or yard. She has a dominant personality. Not once did I ever think that my dog could be gay or heard anyone say anything like that but I’ve been working with rescue for over ten years and I’ve heard just about everything why people want to give up their dog.

Thank DOG one of the volunteers from the rescue organization adopted this gorgeous boy right before he was scheduled to be euthanized. She already had four dogs. She named him Elton – as in Elton John.

This was a happy ending but my heart goes out to the ones that don’t make it. I hope these idiots never get a chance to own any type of pets –ever again!
