Animal cruelty is related to cruelty against people, including violence against women & children. This is why more law enforcement agencies are starting to take it seriously.  See "The Animal-Cruelty Syndrome", an excellent "NY Times" article that explains this very well. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/13/magazine/13dogfighting-t.html

No one here suggests campaigning exclusively against animal abuse. ALL forms of abuse need to end.  The article I mentioned notes that veterinarians can help fight child and spousal abuse by reporting when pets have been abused or other clues.
