My dog asked me to post this so his friends wouldn't suffer the same treatment as poor Seamus.

Are your dog’s paws too big type using the keyboard?

This IS just wrong....

“On that trip, Romney, his wife, sons and the family’s Irish setter, Seamus, were driving from Boson to Ontario. Romney put Seamus into a dog kennel and tied it on top of his station wagon. He said he had rigged up a windshield to make the dog more comfortable. Whether it was the car’s speed, the wind, noise, passing traffic or whatever, at some point during the 12-hour journey Romney’s sons began complaining about a brown liquid running down the vehicle’s back window.

Romney told the Boston Globe that he remained cool under the trying circumstances, quickly exited the highway, pulled into a service station and used a water hose to rinse the car free of what turned out to be diarrhea from the stressed out dog on the roof. He then thought to blast Seamus with some water to clean the diarrhea off him before pulling back onto the highway and continuing the trip to Canada with the dog still lashed to the station wagon’s roof.

Romney contends the dog must have enjoyed the experience because it later climbed onto the car’s roof unassisted. But some people have said that his action probably violated Massachusetts’s animal anticruelty laws.

And Time magazine reports that Ingrid Newkirk, president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, wrote on Time’s “Swampland” blog: “If you wouldn’t strap your child to the roof of your car, you have no business doing that to the family dog!”

Big deal, I couldn't adopt a rescue dog from an agency because (Horror of all horrors) I had owned a miniature Dachshund years before that hadn't been neutered.
Apparently that made me a bad owner who wasn't worthy of saving an animal from lethal injection.

This isn't the kind of hit piece needed here, let his flip flopping record speak for itself.

My mother in law rides on top. The dog rides up front with me in the front passenger seat, wife and kids in the back.
