TheBanyanTree: [Bulk] Your dog died today.

[Jena Norton]

I want to hunt the SOBs down and wreck my karma a bit, but then I'm grateful
Freya spent her last days with someone who cared and made sure she was
loved. I agree with you completely about putting old or sick animals down
when their quality of life is compromised. It's so selfish to keep them
suffering so we won't feel the pain of losing them.

And thank you for what you gave Freya. And for so eloquently sharing it with
us.

I thought you might want to know. I understand you put her on the street
around September, October? She was ancient and deaf, with infected teeth and
weakening hind quarters. She was a Labradoodle, though, so you probably paid
a good sum for her 15+ years ago. Maybe you loved her too much to put her
down. So you put her out.


I don't know you, and I try not to judge. Maybe you were overwhelmed, with
six kids or something. Maybe you are ill, yourself. Maybe you've lost your
home and your job and didn't have the money to put her down. I don't know.
I only know this sick old designer dog was found on the streets with no
collar or chip. And she'd been on the streets quite a while. She looked like
Chewbacca.
