Thanks Lorraine....the guy definitely is a jerk. I live in a small city and don't think we have a SPCA, but I know for sure we've got an animal control department. I feel like kicking him myself (the owner)..and then kicking him some more. I sure don't let my dog roam around the streets and cares less whether or not she gets home (believe me, my dog probably couldn't find her way home LOL). The Shelby story was really bad, and now I am afraid it is happening again. Not as serious this time because he goes back home all the time, but I am still concerned for his welfare. Tells me something if he is roaming through garbage and eating all the dog food I offered him. I can't monitor him during the day because I work but I will try to keep up with him when I get home. Of course my parents think I am psycho for feeding stray dogs and don't want me to do it, but I don't want them to suffer because I have no idea if they are in pain or in need or want food..I can't read their feelings and understand their wants. I hate situations like these, and yep Lorraine, I hate people that do these kind of things to animals of all types.

I swear, people need to be screened beforehand if they are wanting to get an animal...so that the animal will be in good hands and will be loved and cared for. But I don't see this happening any time in the future Guess society has worse problems to deal with
