Snopes says there may be some truth to it, but the recent story going around is greatly exagerated. The photo they contend is actually real, but of a dog caught in some fishing gear...not baited...

So we can all go back to loving French women and Delacroix...

Awful.. but that pooch looks more like he grabbed some hooked bait, and got caught... as opposed to being rigged... them front lips are soft, you try draggin him (figureing from the head size, about 60-70 pounds body mass) behind a boat, rigged like that, they'd pull right out.

Whether or not this story is true ...ANYONE & I MEAN ANYONE who agrees with this practice or makes light of it is a total F****ing Jerk! A dog or cat is a pet, a companion and most times a best friend, it should not be joked about knowing one to volunteer to send over there or anything on that idea!
I am not a PETA lover nor do I agree with alot of the stuff they come up with to try and get at us for fishing, I like all dogs. There are "no" bad dogs, just bad trainers and jerks that teach them to be nasty.
The courts should (if the story is real) give this guy in question an all expense paid fishing trip to Austrailia, take his a$$ out in a boat and put the hooks through his nads and troll with him over the Great Barrier Reef, Fantastic sharkin' there if you like Great Whites!
Dogs are people too!
