I was watching a show tonight, I believe it was called Animal Precinct..or something like that. Anyone see it before? Anyway, they went to check out a possible animal cruelty case. This guy had a Chihuahua mix or something, and it had a HUGE tumor on its leg and butt. He said he never took it to the vet cause he couldn't find any transportation (appreaintly people didn't want the dog in their car....) and also he said he was afraid they'd put him to sleep. So the animal cop guy got all pissed off and stuff and took the dog with him. He had to go back the next day to get the guy to sign the dog over to them. He mentioned to the owner that the dog had bled all over the back seat of his car Poor thing..and the owner thought it wasn't in pain?? Yeah right.

So the vets look at him and do the surgery to remove the growths. Unfortunatly, the one on the leg was just so bad (and I guess it was a more serious growth that would spead or something plus it had gotten really bad) so they needed to remove the dog's leg

It was so sad...It makes me so mad that people can let that happen to their pets? My dogs get a TINY tiny lump and they go to the vet (with me worried sick). I mean you should have see the size of that growth. Poor thing They showed him about 4-6 weeks after the surgery (i think) and they said he was doing A LOT better and would soon be able to find a great home. He seemed to be doing well on 3 legs as well.

Stupid people. I can understand him being upset his dog may need to be pts, but wouldn't you rather your dog not to be suffering?? Grr!! I can't watch shows like that, I start balling my eyes out...
