aww dzbuster...*hugging you hard*

Rough day to see your pet run over..I'm so sorry.

Let me repeat though, there is nothing wrong with bringing your pet to the pound even if it IS his final home. It's a far more humane thing to at least know they've been cared for than just abandoning them to the wild.






Many people don't agree with having your pet put to sleep, and we've had several cats that we could have nursed for years before they finally died. We chose to have them put down while they were still relatively healthy. It's not a kindness to keep them going past the time they would have normally gone.

My MIL however, believes that putting them down is cruel so she kept her golden retriever to the point where he could no longer walk, hold his bladder or see. He ended up with maggots in his beautiful coat and in his flesh and my husband and I finally dragged the poor dear to the vet. The vet was angry as hell that the animal had been "loved" so much that the owner could not do what was best for the PET.

It still sickens me to this day to know how cruel we are to animals because we claim to "love" them..............

oh man..sorry...another soapbox speech.
