For the love of a dog.


Yesterday we were heading into the big city of Red Deer and turned up the radio to listen to the news. One of the reports was about a young man who had a domestic fight with his partner. To get back at her, he threw a 4 month old German Shepherd puppy against the wall, severely breaking it's leg.

The RCMP were asking for the public's help in saving the puppy's life. The vet said there were only three choices for the puppy.

1. The break was so severe that the puppy may have to be put down unless

2. It has it's leg amputated at a cost of $300, or

3. Reconstructive bone surgery, which would save the leg and give the puppy a normal life, at a cost of $3,000.

The Police asked the public to contact the Cedar Wood Veterinary Clinic if they could help with donations. Having 3 dogs of our own, we decided to donate. In 4 hours, the clinic had well over $3,000. They even had an adoption of the puppy where the people who are going to adopt the pup are going to pay the bill themselves. The money that has been donated will go to giving treatment to stray pets and where low income owners can not afford the cost of treatment for their pets.

People who love and care for their pets have kind hearts.

Oh, and I think that each person who donated, should be allowed to line up and throw the Jerk against the wall or hit him in the leg with a 2x4.

People can be so cruel when it comes to animals. They do that to babies too, but Im glad the little puppy is being cared for. Sad story tho'.
