Why I Hate People

Vet tells you your dog is terminal.

Recommends you euthanize.

You give permission.

You cry, your kids cry, everyone cries.

6 months later a tech from the vets office calls you and tells you your dog is alive, being kept in a cage and being used as a blood donor.

You run down there and sure as ****, there's your dog, alive, not all that well being kept in a cage for 6 months and bled dry, but alive.

****ing POS.

That's why you stay with your dog when you put it down.

you can't run far enough or fast enough, and it wouldn't be quick

As painful as it has been I have stayed with every one of my pets.

I owe them that much as they have given me so much.

But I can understand how some people can not go through it.

I don't fault the owners.

Their trust was betrayed.

That's what I do but not for that reason, it's to be there for your friend. Sad to think you need to be there to make sure they put the pet down, why would a vet do that? Glad to hear the owners got the dog back.

That's why you get a second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth opinion before that dreaded decision is made.

Then you stay with your companion until the end.

Serious lawsuit followed by a slow skinning of the vet.

My dear friend was recently advised that it was time to put her beloved cat down. It never, ever crossed the minds of anyone involved not to be there.

One of the saddest and most loving things I've ever witnessed.

True but he's also been tortured by being locked in a cage! That's just wrong... The dog gets no say in it.

You could never legally do that to a person so why is it OK to do that to a dog?

That vet needs a severe ass kicking. And a big lawsuit. And lose his license. What a piece of filth.

It would take every person on this forum to hold me back from pummeling that vet, if that was my dog.
