Family dog saves baby from abusive sitter

CHARLESTON, S.C.
"The family dog, a normally friendly mutt began growling and snarling
every time Alexis Khan was in the same room.

"That wasn’t all, the dog, named Killian, would stand between the baby
and Khan at every opportunity.

"That made Ben Jordan and his wife wonder if there was something strange
going on.

"So they secretly hid an iPhone under a couch and recorded the sounds
in the room when Khan was babysitting.

"What they heard was shocking, and scary. ... "

"A babysitter in South Carolina has confessed to physically abusing a
7-month-old boy in her care—and the child's parents give credit to the
loyal family dog.

As WCSC explains, they grew suspicious when their otherwise mellow dog,
Killian, started routinely growling at the family's 21-year-old babysitter
and standing between her and the child."

Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...

How damned cool. Dogs rock!

"The charges have teeth, the sitter will spend one to three years in jail as well as being prevented from ever working with children again." Excellent. Good dog, Killian!

Good looking dog, too.
Beauty, brains & courage.

For those who have a baby & no dog ... take the baby with you.

Reminds me a bit of my family's dog, when I was real young.

Dr. Murray saved some otter pups ... then tried to teach 'em to hunt.
How does that work, Doc?

Oh, Oonj doll, the otters are old news. We worked HARD at saving them--back when I was active, we had fishermen shooting them 'cuz they thought they were competing with their catch! You know what the trick was? Tourists. We made 'em a tourist attraction; Monterey adopted them, put them on their logo, made 'em part of the "tours" which included Cannery Row, etc., people made jewelry, otter earrings, otter pendants, otter notepads, otter EVERYTHING, and in a few years, damn, they were PROTECTING them, and even the fishermen (well, most of 'em) were working with us. Money: it works.

It was a real success story, but hell, this was back in the '80s, and their numbers in Monterey were 3,000 in the 1970s! Their original population was around 16,000 when man first started slaughtering them, so there's been no significant increase since my day. Nonetheless, I'm tickled whenever they get press.

The PROBLEM is that if their population averages 3,090 or more over three years, it puts them in danger of being de-listed as threatened. Hopefully Monterey values them highly enough now that there will never be a move to do so, but all it would take is one even medium-sized spill in Monterey Bay and you could kiss them all goodbye. So, like all things on the environmental/conservation front, it's a war we fight to win and win and win...until we lose.

Which is not to say "thank you"; like I said, I'm always tickled when they get press. And Monterey Aquarium being built in 1984 was a BIG help; they've been very active working with otter rescue and rehab. Marine Mammal Center, up here in Marin where I worked, works closely with them--any they rescue go straight there. MMC tried doing otter rehab themselves after their big rebuild in 1995, but it's too tricky (tho' they're still working on facilities for dolphins!); Monterey Aquarium has the know-how and has been at it long enough to have the best success, I'm a big fan of theirs.

John Lee, conspiracy therapist at Hollywood award-winner History Channel-mocked SNL-spoofed PirateNew.org wooHOO!!!!!!

I'm trying to save my 3 dogs, 8 cats and 1 mother from death by an army of aubusive sitters and cops with guns who threaten to shoot me if I pet the pets or speak to my mom.

Criminal charges and civil litigation are pending.

The ex-wife didn't appreciate meeting my 21-year-young preggie friend.

My "proud Marxist" Libtard commie sister the yale law professor wants to steal the house and kill her mom. Demorats are insane.
