Damian Talks to PETA
Well, well, well, this is right up my alley. I am an animal-rights activist myself, as well as a shelter volunteer and adopter of three recently homeless animals, so seeing this really put a smile on my face.

Don't let the link name fool you; the only thing being given away here is dog/cat food. But you can watch Damian talk about dogfighting, neutering, and his two dogs, Dora and Bunny Carlos (which also answered my question about whether or not he still had Ella).
"Can you imagine training your kid to be a total fucking asshole? You wouldn't want to live with your kid anymore."
Don't even think about putting this quote in your sig. It's taken.
In a semi-related topic, here is MY recent adoption:
I named her Andie because I sang "Beautiful Girl" immediately upon seeing her through the cage bars.

i 2nd this
What do you know about Ella, btw? That caught my attention and I was wondering about the third dog.
Has Damian been sneaking into my classroom again?
Oh, Jennifer, she's beautiful! Don't you have to fight the urge to kiss her face off?

Oh, then OF COURSE it is correct. Bun E. Carlos? From Cheap Trick? I just named my dog Andie after ARoss, and Dami named his after Cheap Trick.
I actually don't know a whole lot about Ella except that she probably passed away sometime recently, as she would have been eleven years old by now.
Someone feel free to jump in if any of this is incorrect.
You have no idea. Specifically why I named her what I named her.
what kind of dog is she? if you know? i'm only assuming she's a mix
I loved the whole "it was pure doggy love". Makes me want to bring my dog to the kennels to find a friend.

She certainly is a mutt.
The shelter said she is a mix between a rottweiller and a husky, but I would have to say that she also has some beagle in her. That is the only breed I am seeing, aside from rottweiller (because of her brindle coloring).
aww, i used to have a beagle mix... she was mixed with a basset and the only thing basset about her was that she was shorter and stockier and had super long ears lol. but everything else about her was beagle... those are great. she has kind of a husky snout... but then again from the pic i don't see much husky either
okay when i was little i was obsessed with dogs. no lie. and i'm not allowed to have one in the house i live in, buuuuut as soon as i move out i'm getting on again.
damian is awesome.
thanks for posting this, what a great vid.
and your dog is sooo cute!
I mean, pet it.
My LOVESSSSSSSSSS
Damian is so handsome, I WANT TO EAT HIS FACE TOO! AH! I mean, pet his face. Sigh <3 He's so cute and clever. Sigh <3
Puppies and Damian, the cutest things in the WORLD
That said, I have a strong distrust for PETA. Their theatrics skew them closer to the performance art end of the spectrum than towards activism that can help people, they have little sense of perspective, and up until recently they've been down on pet ownership.
It would have been terrific if Damian had recorded this for the ASPCA or the California SPCA.
Oh well, at least the message is valid...

I do agree with you - PETA is not nearly as respectable an organization at the ASPCA (their recent attacks on Kosher slaughter practices were so ignorant it made my brain hurt), but what's important is the message. Damian's not on there doing theatrics, he's really just talking about actual animal cruelty, why it needs to be stopped, and what people can do to stop it. Which is why I didn't get all up in arms about it being PETA.
But yeah, I am not a fan of theirs either.
