I totally agree!! I cannot believe what this woman and her family has gone through in the last 24 hours!!! And to first have to make the terrible decision to have your dog put down. Mind you a dog that she has spend a ton of $$$ on in the past several months for another problem. To have to make that heart breaking decision to do this, and not be able to stay in the room while it is done. Go's home, knowing that she just had her sweet baby put down and is trying to go over the grief of that, plus telling her little girl where Stormy is. I cannot imagine having to do that! Then the vets office calls 5 hours later to say that it wasn't done, and a vet says he can fix her!!!! Where do they get off telling her that they can fix her IF she turns the dog over to him, because he would like her for a pet!!!
OMG PEOPLE Where is your compassion and decency????
How many of us in this forum could or would go through the same situation. And I bet each and every one of us would do exactly as she did. RUN right back to that vets office and snatch her baby back.
I fully agree with the op. She has my full support with her decision. I am sorry if others don't agree. Just think about walking in her shoes, and then decide what you would do.
Thank you for letting me vent.
