**Burrow’s neighbors were furious, especially those who had given the couple hundreds of dollars to help pay the veterinarian.**

Sick. They had a chance and blew it. Hope they don’t have children [the human kind]

Makes one wonder what a psychological analysis would reveal about this couple. He has that dead-eyes look.

Hopefully the Army can charge this reeking sack of human garbage with an additional offense.

I would hope that in addition to the sentence imposed by the criminal court that he is dishonorably discharged. It takes some very sick and evil people to do something like this.

There’s an area at Fort Bragg where the troops abandon their pets, out in the training area. Joe decides he wants a dog, keeps it for a while, then either deploys or moves. The poor dog gets dropped off in the woods.

Use carpet tacks to create the image.

Military have a bad image among rescue groups and breeders for that very reason. They are known to dump pets when they move or are deployed, then get a new one when they return from deployment or are settled at next post. They receive extra scrutiny from breeders and rescues, while some just will not place an animal with military period.

My how times have changed. During the Depression, this kind of thing was common place. My grandfather told me stories of too many mouths to feed and sacks of kittens going into the pond, or even puppies. My dad too, growing up the son of a poor coal miner in PA. I knew old farmers who would just shoot them. Not saying what they did was right, but they certainly weren’t criminal. In second and third world countries, where people don’t have the luxuries to make the choices we do, this continues to be a common practice— so this is definitely a first world problem. What about the farmer who shoots a weak calf (runt) or chicken with deformed foot? Ultimately animals are either property to do with as we see best, or they have rights— and be assured that this can only lead to them being given the same privileges as people, I don’t see how you can have it both ways. I love my animals very much, and spoil them rotten; even my crippled duck who must be hand fed antibiotics every day and carried to his feeding area. But I believe that people have the right to do what they wish with their property and that there are no animal rights to protect under the law, they are property not people. Flame away, you won’t change my mind.

When I was a kid back in the Sixties, I lived in Yokosuka, Japan on the navy base, and they had a significant number of abandoned dogs that became feral. They apparently lived in the caves the Japanese had dug there during WWII, and while most were sealed off, you could still get into some of them, and the dogs apparently did.

I got chased by a pack of them while riding my bike in a more remote part of the base, and had to take refuge by climbing a fence and sitting in the barbed wire on the top. It took me a while to get the courage to climb down.

I had to take to the fence because that damned bike had the most unnerving habit of having the chain come off the sprocket, especially when really pedaling hard and fast...so that pack came tearing down out of the hills from the direction of one of those caves, and when they were almost on me, that damned chain came off as they were snapping at me, and I jumped on the fence from the moving bike and climbed it.

When I came down from the fence, I had to put the chain back on before I could pedal away, and it took me a lot longer to do it because I was nervous and kept looking towards the hill those dogs had run down from.

All that said...this guy is a scumbag.

I don't think this cretin's cruelty had anything to do with anything officially military--not that I condone cruel practice to animals by any entity. I just think he was being a heartless moron. He should be given a dishonorable discharge immediately. Why would the military want someone so defective in their organization? Moreover, a tattoo of a dog in a circle with a line through it should be etched on his forehead with a rusty tool and battery acid. RIP, you poor puppy.

As for what parents or grandparents did with surplus or deformed animals, that was a different time. Today, there are numerous rescues and shelters who would take those critters off your hands and either give them a home or give them a more humane ending than drowning, and the terror the poor animal must feel during that.

One can make the argument that shooting a deformed calf is a humane way of putting it down. Even braining it with a club is more humane.

Tying a cinderblock around its neck, throwing it in the water and watching it thrash around for a long period of time isn’t a humane thing to do. It is downright stupid.

It doesn’t have anything to do with “animal rights” and giving animals “the same rights as humans”. It has to do with cruelty.

Not saying it’s right, but wasn’t this the most common way of disposing of unwanted cats/dogs until quite recently?

Utter nonsense, and I know you are smarter than that. Is it felony cruelty when I pull a weed, catch a mouse in a trap, smash a fly, burn out a nest of bees? Not in the eyes of the law, because those critters don't have rights, but because "pets" and "livestock" now have the right to be treated "humanely" they are protected under the law, and it is possible to commit crimes against their legal person-hood like "felony cruelty". Once you define that right we all know how the damned song ends, we've seen it with every other infraction on our liberties by progressives. They start with a "common sense" law, then use the legal precedent to accomplish their agenda.

my mom told me many stories about my Gma drowning kittens at birth. Rural France WW II.
I LOVE all my pets, but if i had to shoot 1 to save my children, there would be no hesitation.
This guy should have just shot the dog. What he did was cruel.
