Y'all, I'm mad as a hornet after reading this:
https://www.nbc12.com/2019/05/16/loved-death-is-euthanizing-pets-be-buried-with-dead-owners-ok/Why the hell is this allowed? What kind of hideous person/family would do this? If the dog had been old and very sickly, I might rethink my position, but it wasn't.
Don't think that just because my emotions are very raw after just losing my baby girl is the reason this sets me off. Even if I still had both my little girls and they were young and healthy, I'd be mortified by this practice. There is always someone who would love to have an adult dog, especially one so well cared for. The older I and my friends get, the more I understand the truth of that. We don't have the energy (or sometimes even the lifespan) for puppies. Plus, we'd like to have all the chewing and housebreaking behind us. We have lost our furry kids (or soon will be) and very much want another companion to add joy to our lives -- and to force us get up off our lazy butts and take them on walks where we can watch with joy as they read and reply to their pee-mail. Then to read about the barbarian practice this horrible woman was allowed to do, well, that just cuts right to the heart.
I'm so angry, I could spit nails.
