So sad - They need to find out who did this and well I will keep my opinion to my self
:eek:
 
That's just awful! Maybe the animal will get to the point where it is too tired to run away and folks can help it...soon.
 
I don't mind sharing my opinion on it-Absolutely makes me sick. People do incredible things with animals (and people) that they think is funny, or because their horrible, cruel people. I pray this dog is found and saved and that the person who did this is caught and punished.
 
There's a local story in our paper a few weeks ago about a dog who was found w/ one eye missing and the dogs mouth mysteriously fused shut! The vets cannot figure out how this happened, but deduct that it was NOT an accident. They are currently taking donations to cover the cost of surgery to fix the dogs mouth but I can't stand reading stories like this!

BTW, I didn't even open the story, I took enough info from the title and it makes me sick what happens to poor innocent animals.
 
That's sad. I hope they are able to track down the person who did it & prosecute. :(

:love::love::love::love::love:
 
Woohoo!!!!
 
I was really hoping it was done by young kids who had no idea how serious their actions were, and who didn't intend for the dog to get away before they took the tape off. Nope, it was two adult men, and, as a Christian and a lady, I can't use the language appropriate to describe my feelings about them.
