I think I would shank a guy.

"After a deployment in Afghanistan, Brandon Harker returned home to Washington last week, only to discover that his dog went missing. The friend he left his beloved 2-year-old yellow Labrador, Oakley, with said the dog had been given away. Devastated, Harker has turned to Craigslist hoping someone can help him track down his missing pet. Some visitors to the site have reportedly told him they believe they saw the dog for sale on the site earlier this year."

    He needs his friend back, and he better never call that human a friend again.

    My SO is on the deployment list this year, so I went with him to deployment readiness training. Turns out this kind of thing happens a lot. You have to be careful who you trust. I hope he finds his dog.

    Have we stopped evolving as a species now ?

    Some people just need to be put down !


    That's why I prefer animals to people :)

    Agreed!

    I would seriously damage anyone who came between me and my dog. I suspect that if the dog was 'intact' it has probably been sold to a back yard breeder. Very sad. I do hope he cam ne reunited with his dog.

    I would have seriously beat that douche bags *kitten* until he gave me the contact information for the person he sold my dog to. That's not a friend, thats a scumbag.

    I wouldn't kill a Human Being over selling a dog, but the guy would also NOT be My "Friend" anymore...actually, he was NEVER a Friend. Also, some people get in over their heads; they commit to stuff out of misplaced loyalty, and then find out they can't handle it. Taking care of a pet , especially a dog is a Big responsibility and can be a major disaster if you are not prepared for it. The "Friend" probably was "guilted" into keeping the dog because the guy was going to war, then discovered keeping a pet is major. I always say, "Know your limits."

    TOTALLY In-HUMANE. I never read, "Love your dog as you would Yourself;" or "Do unto your cat as You would have you cat do unto you." Humanity IS about Loving and treating Humans well. I'd like to say that you can tell a "good" person by the way they treat their pets...but you can NOT. You can tell a "good" person by their Character, whether or not they have pets. People who do not like people are "problematic" to Society.

    Ok, so i fit into the 'problematic to society' area then. good to know. I will judge people by how they treat animals. But that is just me. No animal I have ever owned or met has ever hurt me or broken my trust. I cant say the same for all the people i have met.
