Sat down to watch the evening and heard a disturbing story. Somebody had gone messing around and poisioned three dogs in our area. The owner had taken all three to the vet were it was discovered that all three were given anti-freeze.There is a $1000 reward offered for the conviction of the person or persons resonsible. My sister told me that dog owners had to be careful not to be leaving old anti-freeze jugs laying around were they could get to them.She also said that anti-freeze tastes somewhat sweet them.Still,I can't understand why someone would want to hurt dogs like this.

Also on the news report said that one of the dogs had passed away while the other two were at the critical stage.At first,I thought maybe it was a accident.But to hear something like that was done on purpose makes my blood boil.:mad:

It must have been an older bottle of antifreeze. About two years ago ALL antifreeze in the US chanrged formulas to add a bittering agent so dogs would be less prone to ingest it. It takes a REALLY sick person to do something like that.

Oh, that's horrible :(
When I was a kid, we had a blue heeler mix dog named Pinto. She was a great dog in every sense, except that she liked to wander. She got out one day and found some antifreeze that someone's car had leaked. Dogs like antifreeze. She made it home, but died soon after :(

When I was a kid it was common for people to toss dog food soaked in antifreeze into yards. My parents always told us to look in the yard before letting the dogs out.
This is what I believe happened.I guess somebody was mad at the dogs owner and used as a revenge method.Whatever the case may be,it's still pretty low in my book to do something in this nature.

It won't be fun when they get caught,Arkansas signed a cruelty to animals bill.Not only are they going after owners treating their animals badly.but going after criminals who do cruel things to dogs and cats for fun.(sick)
