please help save congo the family dog in danger of being killed by the cort of princeton nj. "In Princeton, a family dog, Congo, has been declared "vicious" by municipal Judge Russell Annich Jr.. Because of this, he may be ordered put to sleep, this coming Tuesday. His crime A landscaper came onto the property of the dog's owner, Guy and Elizabeth James, after being told to wait. Congo and the family's other dogs started to bark. One of the landscapers' started hitting the dogs with a metal rake. Elizabeth James started to yell at him to stop. So, the landscaper grabbed Elizabeth, from behind, and pulled her to the ground. Congo, thinking that his owner was being attacked, did what ANY good dog should do. He tried to protect his owner. The landscaper was bitten, and injured, as he should have been. Now, for being a good dog, Congo might be put to sleep. Should Congo be put to death for protecting his family

I have been going over the court documents again and it is just infuriating because Congo was obviously only doing what any dog would do to keep his home safe. People keep messaging me with their own stories about dogs being unfairly targeted by the town and it really shows that this happens way more than it should.

I really never thought this would spread so fast and honestly I am just staring at my screen because it is all so overwhelming. It feels like people actually see Congo for the loyal boy he is instead of what the court claims. Maybe this momentum will actually force them to rethink the whole mess because he just does not deserve this.

This is absolutely heartbreaking. The dog was doing exactly what he was supposed to do. Protect his family! Shame on that judge.

Typical. The guy attacks the owner and the dog gets blamed. If someone hit me with a rake my dog would attack too. Leave Congo alone.

Are you kidding me? A guy hits a dog with a rake and gets surprised he got bit? Save Congo.
