Thank you to the concerned public for reaching out to us about a video involving a dog that was adopted from our rescue a few years ago. As of this evening, the owner has voluntarily surrendered the dog in question to our rescue while this matter is being addressed. Our mission remains the health and safety of our rescued dogs. The dog is now in our rescue’s care and he is safe and in good health. We will not be responding to any further inquiries about the situation, either publicly or privately. Thank you for your understanding.

Edit: A thread for those that are not aware what woman I am talking about. Cooper. Calling cops on a black man, ratcheting up the hysteria in a call to 911.

1. "the NY woman"? Is there only one? What has she done?

[leftieNanner]

5. There is a disturbing video

of a woman in Central Park who is walking her dog off leash. A man asks her to leash her dog and she goes ballistic on him. He's very calm and asks her to keep her distance. Instead of putting the dog on the leash and walking away, she yells at the guy and then calls the cops, insisting (in a fake terrified voice) that she is being attacked by an African American man. I'm glad she has been outed and that they dog rescue took the animal away from her.

7. She was choking that poor dog, all through the video

so if this is the dog, yes he needed to be taken away.

12. I have rescued a few dogs in my day

And her treatment of that puppy made me sick!!!

As I said, all she had to do was put the dog on leash and leave.

10. You forgot to add that she chokes the dog really badly while this is going on.

[leftieNanner]

15. What she did was hideous nt

8. I added a link to the thread of one of the discussions.

2. Meanwhile, here's hoping Melody Cooper's brother gets the emotional and trauma support he

deserves, and also sees two or three of his lifetime list birds in the next WEEK.

[LizBeth]

9. I am not familiar with this. Can you clarify, please?

[WhiskeyGrinder]

18. It's the man who took the video; the man Amy Cooper tried to mess up by calling the cops.

[leftieNanner]

3. I'm so glad to hear this

Almost more disturbing than the way she treated the man (I'm being attacked by an African American man!), was the way she treated the poor dog. It was shrieking and squealing. Poor baby. I'm so glad that the rescue took the dog back.

4. ???

what? I dont get it...

[leftieNanner]

6. See my post #5 above

I tried to find the video but was unable to. I'm sure some clever DUer will help out.

[LizBeth]

11. I added a link to the OP of the discussion on DU about this event.

[Bev54]

14. I couldn't link it

but several news outlets have the video but you can find it at TMZ

[Takket]

13. the guy shooting the video is lucky to be alive.......

the way she was practically sobbing if i was the 911 operator i would be telling the squad car that this woman was maybe seconds away from being murdered. i wouldn't have been surprised to see them pull up, and if the man reached for his phone to explain, he could have been shot to death if they thought it was a gun.

hopefully she is prosecuted and punished, and that adorable little dog finds a loving home.

[LizBeth]

17. Absolutely. Escalate from 1 to 100 in seconds. Putting the mans life out there. Yes.

[tblue37]

19. Think of how quickly cops shot Tamar Rice in the park--less than 2 second after hopping out of their

car.

[BigmanPigman]

16. Thank Dog! I wanted to call the ASPCA when I saw the video earlier.

She was practically hanging that poor dog. Send HER to jail for abuse.

20. As an animal rescuer, just want to point out one positive thing

The rescue is to be commended for taking possession of the dog. Sadly, there are some Rescues out there that will not take back a dog or cat if they adopt them out.

I am glad the dog is now safe.
