did i do the right thing for the dog?

Question

i was walking down the street and i saw an injured dog.i picked him up and brought him home, when i pugt him down he i was covered in blood from the dog. so i called animal controal and And told them and they said we'll be right there. i waited 45 min for them when they gotr there they said we have to put him to sleep.
that got me mad so i said so you take 45 min when your wife is hurt too and then i punched him in the face while the other guy was killing the dog. then i hit him to and made them leave. i then buried the dog in my back yard.

Answer 1

you probably should have taken the dog to a nearby vet. at least you tried, thats more than most do. they killed the dog right then and there? thats weird. and you punching the man, i dont know if that is going to come back on you. if it does, that sucks. but, man, i live in chicago and 45 minutes thats unbelieveably fast. usually they take 6-8 hours, no lie.

Answer 2

Um...yeah, nice bullshit story. Next time you want to explore your fantasies, visit Penthouse Forum. There's a couple of widely known reasons why I can say this never happened...

1. Animal control doesn't kill animals in the back of the truck remeniscent of Arby's Drive-Thru. Animals are euthanized at a central facility by a Liscensed Vet.

2. Animal Control falls under the authority of the local Sheriff's office. Had you assaulted them, you'd be arrested... not telling stories on yahoo.

3. Animal Control NEVER gets anywhere within 45 minutes...

Answer 3

I just thank God you haven't been arrested for it. They doubtless had their reasons for the delay (could have been attending to another dog who was just as sick or one whose life they saved), and they obviously knew the poor thing had no chance of surviving.

There was nothing you could do, don't punish yourself. If it hadn't been for you he would still be suffering. This evening I picked up a wild rabbit from outside my house.. it was in the late stages of the horrible disease myxomatosis and all I could do was call the RSPCA (the UK animal welfare charity), knowing they would take it to be put to sleep. My only comfort is that if I hadn't he would have died a long, painful death.

My heart is with you Hun, lashing out wasn't the right thing to do but it is understandable. Putting the poor dog out of pain fear and misery was right and its the bravest, most selfless action you could have taken. I hope your God looks kindly on you for trying and for caring. Sleep easy and remember you did the right thing for that dog.

Answer 4

the dog could have been so badly injured that there was nothing that could have been done to save the dog. it was better to put the dog to sleep than to let it suffer. as to hitting the person for doing there job was not wise. i hope they do not bring charges on you.

Answer 5

You sound insane!!!!! I know putting a dog to sleep is difficult but you had just found it and obviosly it was suffering. Next time think before you act!

Answer 6

the aggression is very very not good i mean they are just doing there job u should have given them better directions but for the dog yeas he was comfurtable and you put him out of his misery

Answer 7

if he was bleeding badly then the right thing to do was put him to sleep. Thank you for helping that poor dog. most people would have left it.

Answer 8

u made the right decision. punching animal control... not too smart they might put you to sleep next!

Answer 9

no, if you cared about the dog that much you should have taken it to a vet to help or maybe a shelter ..w*e

Answer 10

i can understand you being a but upset, but to assault someone over a dog that did not even belong to you??? i'm surprised that you weren't arrested.
