How awful is this!

Wow, that was really depressing. Well, my Coco is pregnant and shes not even a year old yet. But it was not planned and the fact that lady all was concerned about was money makes me sick. I dont care if Coco has 10 babies, im not selling any of them. In fact im keeping them all. It was my fault for being ignorent and not realizing when her heat ended so i will take care of all of them, its only fair. But never would i be so money hungry like that lady and breed my baby so young on purpose...yuk, its so discusting....

I have to agree! The 9 year old knows better. Something doesn't sound right. I have a 9 year old and I can say beyond a shawdow of a doubt that she would not have done that! Of course it is the grandmothers fault.However, I think the child also needs to be punished!!! I am sorry to hear all of this happened.

The grand daughter no doubt feels horrible anyway. And No amount of money is worth breaking up a family over.

The only one who can make it all right again is the one who started the argument in the first place. the Grandmother. She is putting a price on her love for her grand daughter. And that is the tragedy, not the loss of the dogs.

WELL SAID!!

daisysis · 12-17-2006, 04:14 PM

Well, I believe it is Gandma fault...if anyone is to blame...
I think some forgive-ness is needed here not finger pointing
How sad for all invovled ...VERY SAD...

Emmsmom · 12-17-2006, 04:18 PM

After I posted I went back and read some of the responses. I have a very mature 9 year old. PLease don't assume that the maturity level of ALL 9 year olds are the same. That can vary just as much as the reading level. My daughter knows the difference between right and wrong. She also knows that you don't spray something like shoe spray on a dog! This 9 year old for whatever reason may not have know it was shoe spray. Just don't assume the same is for ALL 9 year olds.

Peters · 12-17-2006, 04:20 PM

the adult that was supposed to be tending to those kids & the dogs is totally responsible & should be held responsible! they should call local authorities and she should get held responsible! i believe a responsible child or adult would have cleaned up the poo not spray something to cover it up? those poor dogs must have suffered so that's cruelty as far as i can see!

IluvLucy · 12-17-2006, 04:22 PM

I've re-read this thread several times and I, too believe the grandma is ultimately responsible. I'm in the same group that didn't believe in leaving children in the car when mine were little.

The money needs to be returned and a lesson learned for the greedy woman!

This whole thing made me sick to my stomach.

Lorraine · 12-17-2006, 04:54 PM

ah yes, now I remember once again why any puppy I sell is sold locally and spay/neutered before leaving, AND the new owner grilled to hilt before leaving and agreeing to sale with follow up visits and more.
I really wish people would find other means than breeding dogs to supplement their income.

Apparently, grandma isn't the brightest crayon in the box.

I have a 9 year old, I would never leave him in the car by himself. He also would probably not understand that puppies have smaller lungs and can't breathe in things that bigger people can. The kid was 9, that's really young IMHO and it's not a matter of knowing 'right or wrong'. How would a 9 year old know that it would be poison to a pet? They wouldn't. You spend lots of time telling your kids about drugs but not that air fresh. or shoe spray will kill pets. Heck, half of America doesn't know that if you use a teflon pan(leave it on the stove too long, it emits fumes)it may kill birds! A responsible child left in a car with a dog that pooped wouldn't think to clean it up, what would they do with it? They of course, would try to cover the smell. Some 9 year olds are not as mature as other ones.

Whose to blame for this tragedy?

I don't think it matters. And - I don't believe anyone did anything deliberately to hurt any dog, puppy, or anyone else.

It is certainly very sad that it happened....heartbreaking.... And, of course, any deposits should be given back.

It's just a sad story. I can see any reason at all at this point to try and place blame. Hopefully, lessons were learned by everyone ---including a lot of us who are reading this sad story.

**** I do hope the poor little girl isn't made to feel responsible for what happened. Some of you may think she should have know better than to use a spray can that had something different in it than she thought was in it. But, believe me, working next to the ER for many years --- I can't tell you how many adults have made the same mistake with many different products.

Sad story.....
