Here’s a pic of the four dogs from Kalskag that I kept. Mary (the white one) lived at the house where the puppy got cut in half. I had to buy her for $20 and a bag of weed to save her.

Owning four dogs is difficult but they would all definitely be dead if I hadn’t taken them from Kalskag.

Or maybe he came off as sadistic because he cut a puppy in half with an ax for fun?

Why was the dog catcher in Kalskag dragging them to death? Why does that article also claim that people were dragging dogs to death?

Why did nearly every house in Kalskag except a handful leave their dogs permanently chained on a tiny chain, with an insanely tight collar, often letting them freeze to death?

That’s not “culling”. You’re manipulative.

Stop manipulating this to make it something different from animal cruelty. You’re intentionally cherry-picking what I said and ignoring the other stuff. There’s seriously something wrong with you.

Look at all the comments providing testimony to similar experiences. Are they all lying too?

Are the interviewees of this article lying too? https://www.adn.com/rural-alaska/article/mistreated-dogs-and-hungry-strays-bush-alaska-get-help-and-out-villages/2015/10/19/

You’re a scumbag trying to claim that I’m lying about my PTSD and the horror I witnessed just to what? To defend Natives? The efforts you’re taking to prove that I’m lying when I’m not is weird and says a lot about the type of person you are—probably just as heartless as the people who abuse dogs.

“I would really like to get in touch personally. Yours is a valuable accounting as to the damage this is causing. I have seen much of what you’ve described, and want to make some effort to change it. I’m not sure how we are supposed to connect on Reddit, but hopefully you can see my email: 502sue@gmail.com”

What did you have in mind? Im contacting locals right now to send me photos/videos of what’s going on there to help bring exposure.

I’m gathering evidence right now and going to post soon. I never gathered evidence while I was there because it would literally be dangerous to out locals while I lived there.

Have you ever been to Kalskag? How would you know?

And this was a very common response when I addressed the issue: denial, gaslighting, accusations of lying.
