I wish each post had a like tab because I like the responses I have heard here. The only thing I have to add to this thread is my outrage as well. The betrayal of trust and good will is disgusting. This world contains so much pain and suffering it makes me cringe when I contemplate it and consider my own part in the possibility of adding to any creatures unnecessary suffering. I have a simple creedo which is as much as possible and reasonable to do no harm and to alleviate suffering. All our fellow animals included and especially to dogs. The unconditional affection and devotion exhibited by dogs is one of the most esteemed characteristics of any animal, including humans, on this earth.
