So, now you would call animal control on your own dog? Please, don't try to insult my intelligence. You say that some of us are stirring the pot?
As for your trying to pit YT members against one another...you are not unique. That is commonplace on ALL boards.
I told you where I think you should start...with yourself. Anyone who hits a small animal has issues of their own. Then, perhaps you might try to help the poor dog. But, from the things you have said, I don't think that dog has a chance of happiness with you.
I find it difficult to believe that you came here for help. Seriously. Your post was nothing short of mean spirited about "the dog".
Which brings up another question: What IS name of "the dog"? Did I miss it? I need it so that when I pray for it, I can say its name.
