I understand that people do not agree with what other people may do with their animals or life however, we do not have control over what they do or not do. Therefore, belittling them is not going to help them or make the issue any better. If you can't help them or say something nice then you are better off not saying anything at all. I must admit that the story was disturbing to me about that person's dog however, they needed to take care of another issue and members were chastising them still about the death of their dog and the unfortunate situation they got themselves in to. I must admit I cried for that dog and had I been in my younger years I probably would have written something not so nice. However, as we age and experience life we learn what not to do/or do. All....we are not perfect and we are only human. You have to remember that what may be common sense to you is not so much common sense to others. It can be frustrating at times but just hope that there won't be a next time with that person making the same mistakes. I also thought last night...darn if I have an issue I would think twice about posting for help because of other people's mean comments/posts. Ok...I'm done and I will get off my soapbox now. Have a great day all!

Hopefully you were reading an older thread that was made before this thread was posted. Some of the older thread do get pretty nasty but they are still educational.
