Probably thought it would be cool to have a “Pit”, then the novelty wore off. Wasn’t as cool as Kisha thought it was gonna be….a dog is a dog. They take a lot of patience & care…you have to train them, too!! Lord only knows what she had in mind for this poor animal, but we ALL how it turned out!! Ms Kisha isn’t fit to own ANY kind of animal….ever. She’s proved she can’t be trusted with an animals life.

How could anyone just take off, leaving an animal tied up, knowing the animal can’t get food & water for themselves??? The person that did this needs to be tied to a railing, and starved almost to death…get some of her own medicine!! What’s 6 months in jail? She’ll get 3 squares a day and a place to sleep. No, let her sit it out in a med tank (jail talk for isolation) with only water for a week, then bread & water after that for a month (or longer). Just keep her barely alive, and alone!! What a piece a work!!

I have been following this since it started I also sent money for Patricks care. So, I do not want him going to the zoo…Let him stay with the care
-givers at the medical center and let them find him a home with a family.
If necessary we can all pool our resources and help pay for what is needed at the hospital in the way of food and shelter. He is loved and that is what he needs. Do not put him in harms way.

The Humane Society really wanted him back so he could be an attraction and they could use him to get donations.

Thank God the Judge saw through that.

Don’t donate to that humane group-

The human species is God’s feces.

As long as Patrick has a comfortable place to sleep, proper nutrition and lots of companions who enjoy his company, does it really matter where he stays?

As for Ms. Curtis, let the punishment fit the crime. Put her in a jail cell and tie her to the bars for a couple of weeks without food and water and see how she likes it.

I think there should be much harsher punishments for people who abuse animals. As it turns out, most animals are much nicer than most people, but they’re the ones who are always victimized.

It is also speculated that people who are cruel to animals are sociopaths.

FYI Popcorn Parkis not a “zoo”. It may be called that but it is actually a llike a sanctuary. I lived right by there in NJ so I have seen it. Plus, bless all of you good people but in the words of a WWII veteran that used to leave biscuits for my dogs every day, “I’ll take a dog over a human any day”. I couldn’t agree more. Good luck, Patrick!

My West Highland Terrier sleeps next to me on my bed.

Good news!!!!

I have a brother who has severe Downs Syndrome. His name is Patrick. He was attacked in 1990 while being placed in a NJ state hospital by a schizophrenic. He was stabbed in the neck with a butter knife. He has survived and is living in an amazing home in NJ run by a non-profit. I would recommend that pit bull, Patrick, be placed with a non-profit agency and not in a zoo aka “state hospital.” Just so everyone understands, I am also a pit bull activist with much love, care, concern and understanding of these dogs to include potential dog aggression issues. I love my brother and I love pit bulls because they need to be protected by people that have the potential for doing harm to them. God bless Patrick and I hope that if you have the chance to be around a pit bull, you will see that they are very wonderful given the chance. And follow Cesar Millan’s “boundaries and limitations” along with “exercise, discipline and affection in that order.”

Mike & Jason would make a great couple…both a**holes. The life of any dog on this earth is worth more than either of you!!!!

Why on earth would they even consider sending this – or any – dog to a zoo? He needs to be somewhere people can come to adopt it rather than being put on display. Shame on the Associated Humane Society, which usually dose such good work, for trying to grab Patrick in the hopes of getting money and publicity.

Jason Frazier is a no-brain idiot.

You know very little of the nature of abused dogs obviously. Shelter dogs make some of the very most loving pets one could ever ask for. Maybe they know what its like to not even have the necessities of every day existence. In our own family this has been demonstrated not once but 3 different times. Its almost as if they are just so grateful to have a family and a home.

shameful comment sir.

Enough time and money have been wasted on this fleagab that should have been euthanized when it was found. Go to any Section 8 housing in the US and you can find dozens of “Patricks.” If all these people going on ad nauseum about this mutt were really interested in helping abused and neglected pets, they would be lobbying their elected officials to prohibit pets in Section 8 housing.

I THINK THE DOG SHOULD GO FOR ADOPTION, AFTER HE HAS COMPLETELY RECOVERED. AS FOR THE WOMAN THAT ABANDONED THE PET. SHE SHOULD BE TIED TO A FENCE AND LEFT WITH NO WATER OR FOOD FOR AT LEAST A WEEK AND EVERY ONCE AND A WHILE POKED WITH A STICK AND BEATEN. I BELIEVE WHAT IS DONE TO THE ANIMAL SHOULD BE DONE TO THE PERSON THAT DID IT.

I say that Patrick should be left at the animal hospital until he is ready for adoption. As for Ms. Curtis, she should never be allowed to own another pet for as long as she lives, and this includes pet rocks.

If all of you followed Patrick’s story you will be sick!! When he was found he looked like a corpse.. Patrick deserves to stay with the people who took care of him all these months.. This animal deserves everything but the best!! If you cant wish Patrick good.. dont comment and mind your own business!

Humans know right from wrong. Dogs are loyal companions who love their owners no matter what. This dog was chained up, beaten, and starved BY A HUMAN who knows right from wrong. And this dog STILL stayed by his owner’s side through all this torture. In this case, I would say this particular dog’s life is much more valuable than the piece of trash that did it to him.

Maybe you’ve just never had that kind of connection with an animal before. Or maybe you just don’t feel bad for animals that this is done to. People cause all the pain in the world, not animals. They are there to make our lives better and happier.

The only person that should be put in the zoo is the low life that tied him up.

Hopefully Patrick lives a happy loving life. Beautiful dog.

@Bridget. Im an animal lover, Im just tired of these animals getting more attention than humans. Dogs have their place in society and they should stay in their place. We have come to believe that a dog is like a family member…kissing in the face, sleeping in your bed…thats just plain ol nasty!

Dogs are dogs…humans ar humans..two different species.

I would figure youre single…need a man, but you sleep eith your dog, kiss it in its face and before you know it.. a law will be passed so that you can marry your dog!!!

@mike, not sure who you are responding to . No where in my comment did I indicate that a dogs life is more valuable than human. Judging from the way you respond I would think that you don’t like animals very much and would be okay with throwing an animal down a trash shoot. I am thinking, SINGLE, LIVING AT HOME WITH MOM and staying there.

Why would they want to put a dog in a zoo? If the dog has be temperment tested and it fit for adoptability why not put him in a good home?

r u kidding me??? a freakin dogggg!!!\\

booooyyyy you pepole kill me..a dogs life is more valuable than a human life…only in America!!
