Dogs

Reading an article in a British newspaper when I came across this:

In the latest case, a penniless unemployed shoplifter was cautioned and handed a voucher as he left the police’s custody centre after admitting stealing food from a Co-op store in Hartshill, Stoke-on-Trent. He had spent his benefits on vet’s bills for his dog.

Police say criminals are finding lost dogs and, instead of returning them, are selling them for a quick buck. It's a heartless new crime called "pet flipping" — and police fear it's growing.

Case in point: This summer, Leisa Waggoner's dog Rosie, a cute and feisty schnauzer, got lost on the streets of Indianapolis. Desperate, Waggoner posted flyers all over the neighborhood. When she went to a lost dog website the next day, she got great news: Rosie had been found. But there was a twist: A con artist, posing as Rosie's owner, had already claimed the dog.

"She knew it wasn't her dog, but she claimed her," Waggoner said. "And next thing we knew, she'd listed her for sale on Craigslist," for $50.

And it can get even worse. Waggoner said that when she tracked down the woman trying to pawn Rosie, the thief tried to extort her. "She texted us and said that if we gave her a $250 reward, that she'd give our dog back to us." Waggoner called police, who arrested the woman, Jennifer Dodd, who pled guilty to felony theft.

I can't stand dogs in the house, drives me nuts. That was the only fight the wife and I had getting married, I lost. Five months later we have to go put her little chihuahua down today. It was her dads dog, he passed away three years ago. She was really hoping for Chiquilin to last to see our baby girl in January. I still don't like dogs in the house but can't quite stop crying. This was a good dog.

Sorry bout your wife's dog. But I'm posting to say that I originally understood you to say that you were putting the dog down three years after it died. In which case I'd understand why you didn't want it in the house.

GSD is an abbreviation for German Shepard.

My dog does that. Not because he's worried about me. Because he loves to eat my mucous filled kleenex and he thinks if he's nice to me I'll give them to him. It's disgusting.
