FYI, black dogs, particularly “Germanic” breeds are targeted by occultists and satanists for animal sacrifice.
[as are black cats, goats, etc]
The local SPCA had a policy in which NONE of the above were adopted out prior to the “holy days” of the aforementioned cults.
Many years ago a guy came up from Louisiana to pick up his trike and was worried about his black lab which had been snatched from his yard the day before.
He went back home expecting he’d eventually find his dog.
This happened about a week before Beltane.
[Walpurgis Night/Beltane]
I didn’t have the heart to say anything else so I just said I’d pray for the dog’s safe return.

The vernal equinox is close at hand.
Keep your dogs and cats IN when you are not with them.
During my years as a Dobe rescuer I got to know one of the local shelter workers very well.
[she even got one of my rescue dogs]
Several times a year she was part of the “clean up team” who went to the known places and scraped up the tortured remains.
I am deathly serious about this.
These “people” -are- out there and they will take your animals and torture them to death as an ‘offering to the devil’.
You’re kidding! Around Hagerstown?
That’s sick.
Thanks... ;(
Very sad, but it’s good information to know, so that dog owners can be extra vigilant about protecting their dogs.
