UPDATE
CARLA ANN THOMAS is not currently in the slammer. she is operating under the name
CARLA PARRAVANI.
i wonder if the AKC is aware of this alias?
CARLA has been active on both her personal facebook page and the page she set up for
BOOM, the mutant dressed in chicks and bunnies below, the same mutant who attacks other dogs at events, without provocation or warning. CARLA has been trying to help a
teacher out with a school project. the teacher is attempting to show her junior high students just how fast a photo can be shared on the internet. ISYN! for the time lapse photography equivalent of the project, CARLA should have had the teacher hold up this photo of a tricked out BOOM.
CARLA'S friend list is an impressive who's who of dog fighting and pit bull advocacy. it reinforces the old adage
Birds of Feather; emily patrick, ed faron, murph mcadams, allie renar, dahlia canes and more than a few names that i recognized as crazed fur mommies but the one name that really stood out - LEDY VANKAVAGE. LEDY once again living up to
her reputation on google as being associated with HARMING dogs, not helping them.
UPDATE
someone just notified me that they did not realize the pit bulldog (BOOM) mentioned in this dear craven letter was the same pit bulldog (BOOM) featured in the
huffpo. my mistake for not updating the blog post and just allowing that critical piece of information to sit in the comments.
this is CARLA ANN THOMAS' pit bulldog BOOM.
UPDATE!
i received an email from someone who has experience with CARLA ANN THOMAS and her dogs.
Dear Craven,
It's a small world. I knew Carla Ann Thomas. These charges of animal cruelty are shocking as she does present herself as utterly dedicated to her dogs but looks apparently are deceiving.
In 2011, I attended the same K9 club as Carla Ann Thomas. One day, during flyball practice her pit bull dog, Boom, just completed a flyball run and then attacked another dog. It was instantaneous and unprovoked. Everyone saw everything. Boom's victim had finished the run before Boom. At the end of Boom's run, he spotted another dog. The other dog was looking down sniffing something on the floor, minding its own business.
Boom had grabbed the other dog's paw and basically crushed it. The poor dog yelped but Carla was fast. The fascinating thing about it was the she grabbed her dog by the loose skin on the nape of the neck and at the same time, she grabbed him by the loose skin of the rear of the dog. Being that the dog was not more than 35 lbs at that time, tough, rough, and buff Carla was able to easily perform this maneuver and quickly whisked Boom away. There was not too much damage done to the little dog, as Carla swooped in to grab Boom and lifted him off his feet and he released. Maybe she practiced that maneuver with him a few times? I don't know but it was a very quick, stern, and methodical maneuver. She whisked her pit bull dog out of the training area and disappeared.
The victim, just a normal dog, tan with white patches, was simply standing around and didn't see the threat coming. At least a dozen people witnessed the attack, so Carla couldn't legitimately claim her pit bull was provoked, although she may have. I don't know. I never went back to that K9 club. I am a petite older woman and I didn't feel safe around dogs that are capable of such quick and explosive aggression.
CORRECTION: the second animal cruelty arrest appears to be her
THIRD. this is her
SECOND.
BRIGIT, you chose a real loser to defend.
JUST IN!
according to the AKC,
effective april 13, 2013 CARLA ANN THOMAS has been suspended for 15 years and fined $3000. (i'll need to consult with one of the AKC drones that i am cahoots with in order to understand what this means)
UPDATE
a
second animal cruelty charge has been brought against Ms Nutter on 11.01.12 in pinellas county.
the updates are coming fast and furious.
CARLA ANN THOMAS aka Ultimate K9 loves loves loves her dogs. you might even say that she lives for her dogs. and her dogs die for her.
CARLA had a fly ball competition to go to, so on a friday afternoon, she left her akita in her pet food store, with a bowl of water, food, set the thermostat on 80 (yes eighty degrees, that is not a typo), pointed the fan at the dog and left him there for the weekend so she could play with her pit bulls. note, this occurred in st petersburg florida, the internet shows that the temp highs exceeded 80 that weekend. she returned to a dead dog and was charged with animal neglect and found guilty.
i love love love this video. THOMAS blames her landlord for turning off the AC,
she said he has done it before. the landlord denied her accusation. but
i am wondering, why would she leave her dog alone in her pet food store if her landlord has a history of cutting the power? and why on earth would she set the AC to 80º? her vet defends her stating "s
he loves her dogs, she loves them better than people." yeah, i'll bet she does, they always do! and i think it is cute how THOMAS talks to the media holding her mini pin rather than one of her many mutants. i don't think that was an accident. she was likely to get more sympathy with the public, you know, cuz it is so easy to hate pit bull owners. you can see a photo of all of her dogs
here. wow, she must be another dog whisperer. akita, dogo, GSD, staffy bull, intact male pit bulls, mini pin and what is that... a pomeranian or a long haired chihuahua? yes, she must be the dog whisperer.
if you are set up to stream
netflix movies, you can see CARLA ANN THOMAS at 43:00 putting her pit bull, JAEGER through the ATTS motions in the propaganda training film BEYOND THE MYTH. really LIBBEY, you couldn't find a NON criminal for this spot?
and here they are after the
ATTS, celebrating another pittie triumph over golden retrievers.
what is with these PB freaks that they are always picking up these dogs? i just don't get it.
let's take a closer look at
JAEGER, another impressively titled gripping dog.
Jaeger is ADBA and UKC registered.
He is an incredible athlete with extremely high drive. He loves to run, swim, jump, and retrieve. He opens and closes doors and refrigerators, and he will retrieve just about anything for you. He loves to bring you the remote and phone or pick up dropped keys, change, papers, etc.
He is 21 inches tall and weighs 58lbs.
in addition to a HERDING INSTINCT TITLE, he has been "safe dog" certified by the ADBA (another sham of a test) and received his CGC and ATTS. JAEGER also has flyball, weight pull, conformation, rally and agility titles and plays around with lure coursing and schutzhund, although no titles apparently, maybe he wouldn't release quick enough?. since he can open and close doors, he is a CERTIFIED SERVICE DOG. obviously. and what good is a pit bull if you can't take him AND his testicles to the hospital so he can snuggle with cancer patients? yep, he is a CERTIFIED THERAPY DOG!

THOMAS claims JAEGER passed his TD test at the age of 8 months, yet according to
Therapy Dogs International, dogs must be at least one year of age and the "handler must be of good character." woops.
well, i was wrong. CARLA was not lying about JAEGER being in a reading program. she does take this thing and his testicles to read WITH kids! remember, this is a dog that CARLA freely admits she is not always in control of his drive.
CARLA ANN THOMAS throws a vest on this thing and takes him into the public so he can kiss children. a dog that she admits, she can NOT "turn his drive down or off". she is grossly misrepresenting her gripping dog to the public. and getting away with it.
BEHOLD, a REAL woman.
a real woman with an ego the size of the state of floriduh.
isn't that, dare i say it... prejudicial?
with the help of CARLA ANN THOMAS, the pit bulls were herding farm dogs myth has been debunked
HERE. at the link, you will see a genuine purebred american pit bull terrier "earn" his herding instinct certificate. you won't want to miss the excitement!
Feel free to share any of my pictures or videos. I wouldn't post them if I didn't want people to see them. You can check out videos of my other dogs on youtube also.
why thank you CARLA, i will take you up on that!
please visit CARLA the rescuer,
