• Wrong dog euthanized

    Anyone heard of the story in Florida? Second time the county “shelter” euthanized the wrong dog. I use that in quotes because the county shelter doesn’t take care of their dogs anyway and puts down most of their dogs. It’s so saddening to me that they don’t care and don’t take precaution about this matter and put down all the dogs anyway. Me and two of my moms friends are writing letters tomorrow. Just wanting to see of anyone heard, maybe we could get more people involved and change the policies / procedures on some county shelters. Thoughts?

    I just read this story about an NYC dog being euthanized due to computers going down, when the dog was actually supposed to be returned to the owners:

    I heard about the cat too ! On yahoo.. the vet gave the papers to the family & they signed them but the vet didn’t ask the family if they wanted to be there when they put this perfectly healthy cat down… He is not a good vet if you ask me he sounds lazy & just wanted to get the day over with… I hope they did not pay the man I would sue.. The vet also got suspended for doing something to the dogs paw !!

    I heard about something like in michagan i think. The cat was sent to have a flea bath, but put down by accident. It was really sad, the family is sueing the vet.

    Life summary : I love animals even more than people

  • jpatr1d

    I have always loved animals, no matter what shape,size, color, species they are. I started as a vegetarian a few years ago, but i only knew that i didn't want to eat animal. i stoped for a while when i lost my job and ate what i could. no excuse i know. but soon later to realized my mission in life and purpose. i am here to be the voice of those who do not speak human. i changed my outlook to this because i found a boxer mix dog laying under my porch. she had gotten hit by a car and was severely starved. everyone around me was like leave it alone, you don't know where it came from, but i didn't care i had to save her. i rushed her to the emergency vet clinic where they did immediate surgery on her. despite those peoples commentary i saved a dogs life and from that point on i knew that if people treated a dog that way i wonder how people treat non domestic animals. I researched and came across peta2 where i now am an animal activist and vegan. I continue to help and save animals that i find and plan on never changing my ways for any one.
