    Chloroform... superglue... dental floss...

    "The defendant made a comment to the dog about stabbing her with a pair of scissors"

    That quite seriously made me feel ill.

    Thank you for posting that Cats, hopefully some want to be backyard vets will read it and get the idea.

    Wow. That story made me physically ill. I can't believe someone would even consider doing that, much less doing it.

    Thanks for posting it Cats. Hopefully someone will read it and realize the importance of taking your pet to an actual vet for real care.

    Goosebumps, and not the good kind.
    Un imaginable, and no words can describe the disgust and sadness felt.

    I hope they throw away the key for that guy...

    Not to sound like I don't care, but I doubt this this was an issue of a pet owner trying to take care of their pet on their own... I think this guy just wanted to inflict pain onto the dog for no reason. Sounds more like a true neglect case resulting in death more than a worried owner asking questions on the internet...

    Its always my poor pitties that get the brunt of all evil :(

    Lucky, the dog in the report is a 'hound/retriever mix' not a pit bull.

    I hope the legal system doesn't let Zoe down.
