This happens way too often. Same with some people having children..I see how some people talk or treat their children in stores and it hurts my heart.. |
How very sad :( |
i totally agree! |
I guess I will never understand why people get animals and do not take care of them. |
Your right if you can't afford to take care of your pet you shouldn't have one. I go to a clinic and an older vet that charges a quarter of the usual fee. It's to bad the vet couldn't take him away from the man for abuse. |
Poor doggie that is so sad:( I don't know what makes them think it's okay to own a dog |

Prayers for that poor dog. Maybe I treat mine TOO well, but I'd rather be a responsible and compassionate pet owner than just someone who lets an animal suffer because of my own ignorance. |
So sad :(Wot a sad story! My mum has a golden retriever who is 13 now and suffers from arthritis and also had to have a cancerous growth removed recently.* Treatment for both of these has been very costly - but that just isnt an issue because he a much loved FAMILY MEMBER. how someone can have so little regard for the welfare of a member of their family is beyond me. My heart goes out to that poor dog.* |
I think 120 was really good for everything they did. My vet would have probably doubled that bill..with the heartworm test and rabies shot and exam and everything.. Thats horrible how that dog was treated. It's similar to how I saw a lot of dogs treated in Puerto Rico when I was there a few years ago. Most of the dogs roam the streets and have 3 legs because they get hit by cars. My cousins boyfriend told me that most people there see dogs as just dogs, and they stay outside rain or shine...Most get them, kennel them and thats how they stay until they die..It's awful. |
:eek: ... I can't believe what I am reading ...... that poor Baby .... :( |
I TOTALLY AGREE. This happens way more than we want to believe. :( |

I most certainly agree with the majority here ..in every town , everywhere you will find people just like this who think animals are disposable . Pets cost money . You need to provide care for them , you need to walk them , feed them , train them , love them . It is called RESPONSIBILITY . Your story is repeated over and over again and the pets suffer because of it ..and yes , NEGLECT is ABUSE . |
I agree. I know that we are in some crunched economical times. And some people are really being hit hard by them. However, for the sake of your dog let someone take him that might be able to provide healthcare and proper nutrition. The dog also needed to be on heartworm prevention. There is no telling the true medical condition that the poor thing was actually in. It is very sad. Around here, our local HS provides free rabies shots, spay and neutering for those who cannot afford it. It is local vets that are donating their time for the sake of dogs and cats in this county. Our vet whom loves small animals and has a large practice. If someone comes in with a sick animal and cannot afford to pay, she sets up a payment plan for them and treats the animal anyway. I know this, because I set up their computer systems. I really admire her for that. |
