“A fool and his money are soon parted.”

You seem not to have a full understanding of the motivations of pet people.

For them (and I’ve been guilty of this once or twice), the foolish thing would be to hold on to the money and just keep driving by the injured dog.

This is why I used the example of the deer we came across. We could not just watch it suffer. I’ve had to actively kill pets as well. One kitten was paralized from the waist down and the other was a chipmonk my dog had caught and had broken its back with the same result. One was dispatched with a bullet and the other by throwing it against the wall.

My wife commented on my tears after each. It was difficult, but I know that the suffering of both ended in an instant. It was the right thing to do.
