Not fucking likely!

I was referring to how many "decent" people treat their dogs.

With the drought we have, we have had an epidemic of animal snake bites here in Kinglake. My vet tells me they just let them die rather than pay the $500 dollars for the antivenin. They even baulk at the small cost of "putting them down"

The same vet, or anyone else there, will tell you they have never seen a more loved or cared for dog as Sam in the lives. Yell out if you want her email.

Sam was okay when we went to bed that night. At 4AM I sat bolt upright in bed knowing something was wrong. When I went into his room he had obviously just died seconds before. His tongue and other parts were still warm, as was the urine he was lying in on his couch.

I kissed and cuddled him until rigor mortis set in and delayed burying him until 5 PM that night so Lochie could grieve him and know he was gone.

Two nights later it rained overnight and I am that crazy I was up at 2 AM, in the rain, putting sheets of corrugated iron over his grave (4' 6'' deep!) so he wouldn't get wet.

I have never loved anyone or anything so much in my life.
