  2. That's one lucky pup.

    Not all K-9s are so fortunate.
    I remember a story several years ago where an officer "forgot" his K-9 in the car in the heat.
    By the time he remembered, it was too late.

    I don't recall where it happened, but damn that broke my heart. That dog must have suffered so much, and died wondering why his dad left him there.

  3. We lost our "big" dog (he was a shepherd/lab mix) Jess in May of this year. He was old and arthritis got so bad he could no longer get up off the floor to go outside. We found a vet who came to the house and sent him over the rainbow bridge. If that wasn't hard enough, 2 weeks ago we lost our "little" dog Libby (she was a Yorkie/Shih Tzu mix). She was old, was totally blind and almost completely deaf. We knew we had to let her go but she took the decision out of our hands. She passed peacefully in her sleep. We still have 2 cats but it's just not the same without our dogs. We've been together 49 years, married for over 47 years and we've only NOT had a dog for a total of about 1 year. We've decided due to our age, it would be unfair to adopt another one.

  4. Cop: Mr. Tornado, you're under arrest for animal cruelty, attempted kidnapping, and attempted murder.

    Tornado: You're kidding me right?

    Dog: Bites tornado

    Tornado: Yeets dog to Canada with yeet sound effect.

    Cop: Morphs into John Wick and pulls out his Glock 34 Combat Master.

    Tornado: Oh shit, not this again.
