Ugh - I know youtube is a hive for stupidness, but I came across this one clip on another glider forum of some guy literally throwing his sugar glider on a dog's face. X__x;; He claimed they were "playing." It made me wanna strangle the owner. I don't know if I felt worse for the terrified glider who kept trying to get away, or this little pug who was tossing its head because it had sharp toes in its eyes. Since when is throwing your pet "playtime?" My God... that's disgusting.

Yeah, my thoughts exactly. That guy is being so rough with his suggie; it's an animal, not a toy or something cool to share with your buddies on youtube. I was horrified by the fact that the dog looks like it's stepping on the glider as the thing tries to get away and on the verge of snapping to get the sugar glider off its face. Those animals are giving every sign possible that they don't like what's going on - I feel so bad for those poor guys. frown

That is so bad. THat could possibly be conisdered animal crulty! Lets just keep throwing an animal who continues to try and run away from my other ones. Poor glider is probably so stressed out.

OMG! That's was horrible! Why do people insist on abusing their animals like that? Don't they see that the poor glider wants to get away and the dog doesn't want to be bit in the face? Or are they too stupid? I guess they think it's funny. It's almost like they're trying to get the dogs to bite the poor little glider. This video was disgusting and appalling...

The name of the video is "Our sugar glider plaing with our Dogs!".

Hope that helps...

That was horrible. And the black gloves?? Obviously the glider doesn't like the owners or the dogs. Poor thing.

I saw this over on glider gossip. There was a cat video too. Someone said in the subject line "I want my glider to play with my cat" or something like that. I was horrified too. Why would someone do that?

I hope when people see something like this they are posting comments. If innundated with negative comments from glider people he might think twice. You can post comments about a video. Let's flood it!

Some people just don't understand what they are doing is frightening to their animal. They see it as the animal is "having fun".
Having 7 cats this is the way I feel about people who play with their cats with laser pointers....it's cruel...IMO.

When looking that video up, another came up... about a glider and italian greyhound playing. The glider is running free in the room, and the dog (about half way through) starts chasing it! I've had IG's and they are fast and destructive... killed 3 rabbits we've had here. Can you imagine what they could do to the glider?
