| Dog, animal health |
The health of our animal friends is as important as ours and
should be treated as such. Often precautions must be taken the same way as one
would think about children safety.
I have heard of a neighbor who let his
friendly German shepherd hang around while he was mowing the lawn. The dog
screamed when his long waging tail got sucked in the lawn mower. The dog was
saved but lost his tail.
In a recent incident in Hawaii,
after a grooming trip to Petco, the dog
owner found dry blood on the dog. The veterinarian
who examined the dog found that not only the dog’s ear was cut off but,
apparently, they had tried to reattach it with glue. The pet shop did not even
inform the dog owner about the injury the dog had accidentally suffered and,
instead, tried to cover it up unsuccessfully. This is irresponsible behavior
even if you look from business perspective only. Rightfully, the dog owner is
suing Petco.
