The mauling of six-year-old Misha Delmore is a tragedy that has briefly helped us get the attention of the Vox-addled populace in the
Denver area, even if only for a moment. Let’s make the most of it.

Explain to people now that these animals are being systematically abused. When you talk to people, don’t forget to mention that...

• Presa Canarios were only the first on a growing list of breeds disallowed for private citizens.
• Ironically, the only people now allowed to breed and own Presas, pit bulls, Dobermans, German Shepherds, and other breeds
are the least qualified, raising them for use at prisons, detention centers, and pursuit of “criminals” without regard for the dogs’
welfare.
• Local authorities suppressed the original necropsy of Ferraro, the Presa who mauled Misha, because the vet who performed it
was not on the “approved” list for handling government-bred animals. That report showed that Ferraro, who had washed out of TSA
training for the Denver airport, had had multiple broken ribs, was blind in one eye and probably had severe arthritis in his legs from
blunt trauma wounds that had not properly healed.
• Ferraro had broken loose from captivity—well, if you were being beaten and starved, wouldn’t you?
• The government dogs that are trained for use in prisons, detention centers and in pursuit of ‘criminals’ may not have bones
broken, but their training creates dogs that are like Ferraro, vicious and unstable. Ferraro is a tragedy of abuse. But the government is
systematically abusing dogs and then using them on anyone: protestors, union workers, a kid who gets scared of the police and
runs. We are all possible future Mishas.
• The morality of a government can be seen in its treatment of its most vulnerable. That includes children and dogs.
