The very last picture I've got of my dog, who died a couple of months ago...

I'm sorry to hear about your dog Kalah.

I'm sorry. I love animals and know what it feels to lose one.

I hope he/she/it died by natural means. Some of my beloved dogs were poisoned by mad neighbors, and I had to endure them suffering, breathing in a rattling manner, drooling blood all over the place during hours before passing away. :(

That's awful! Don't write stuff like that. Makes me sad :(
Maybe your neighbours are the ones who need to be poisoned :mad:

I was unfortunate enough to see a cat and her kittens go like that and it was depressing...Why do people find it so easy? Most don't even take into account their neighbours' pets... :disagree:

He was getting old and his health deteriorated quickly; it is quite possible he was sick with cancer or something, at any rate he got to a point when he no longer had any fun being alive - wouldn't eat, would play or go for long walks... At that point we decided it was time to call it a day.

I'll always remember him as a loving, energetic fool of a dog who loved food, play and companionship - a good friend for many years.

No, too easy for 'em. Stabing them to death with a small needle sounds better.

Sorry man. That sucks. I know what it's like to lose a beloved pet. Amazing how much you get attached to them.

Maybe we should form an Anti-Animal Killer Squad then? :devious:
TT and Milla could flip coins for the leadership of the squad. :D


But seriously, death by poisoning is extremely cruel. I don't even want to imagine that...especially since I have a dog myself.

That's not harsh enough. I say feed them to a pack of wild dogs.

Much better! ;)

Even that isn't harsh enough. I do not tolerate any cruelty to animals. Just now a story ran on the news about these two idiots running a pitbull fighting ring in my state. Now all the poor dogs have to be destroyed while the two guys only face 4 or so years in pirson.

Neither do I, but two wrongs don't make a right. The two guys deserve a severe punishment though. Four years is too easy.

That's the part I hate though. Why don't they do it in reverse? (put the dogs in puppy prison and destroy the two idiots instead :D)

Us humans can be evil and conceited creatures sometimes :disagree:.

You know it. And if you haven't figured it out by now, I am a dog lover... just not in the way Titan will most likely comment on.

Here are my two dogs.

Beautiful dogs, Omega! ;)

I have a chihuahua myself.
I remember the day we brought him home; I was actually afraid of him.

Now, I can't imagine my life without him :D.
