THE CHOCOLATE DOG BLOG: Bosco says not cool

Bosco says not cool

Last night on the local news there was a story about animal cruelty involving puppies in rural Nova Scotia. I cannot find a link to the story but it went down like this. A box was found in a ditch that had nine puppies and the mother in it. Sadly two of the puppies died from drowning in some water and the mother was dead as well. Police believe she had been hit by a car.

Two local women found the pups and quickly got them to a vet and they are doing great and ready for adoption. This act of cruelty just makes me sick and I can't imagine why someone would do this. They are trying to track down who did it because it is against federal law to dump animals like that.

Local vets said that there were a few calls from someone looking to put down nine dogs so that is who they are checking into. I guess vets said no and of course they would. Most vets would rather just take the dogs and try to find them a new home.

Puppies are part of what you sign up for when you get a dog. IF you get a female dog and don't have her fixed then it is your responsibility to take care of those pups if and when they happen. In my experience it is not hard to give away cute pups, there are always people who want one.

I hope they find the person and put them in a box and dump them on the side of the road and let them see how it is.

Just wanted to pass along this story because it made me really angry with people.
