So, who are we supposed to volunteer for/send money to exactly after watching this? Are we wasting funds protecting animals that have been abused rather than protecting women who are victims of domestic violence if the logical conclusion is that a guy who beats his dog also beats his wife?

A dog might have at least bitten the crap out of him. Appalling. So, who are we supposed to volunteer for/send money to exactly after watching this?
