Guest guest Posted April 24, 2003 Report Share Posted April 24, 2003 You all may have heard about this story already, but this is the first time I read it, and I was shocked! After all this, and what the police officer did to this dog.....now they might go ahead and fine the owner?!?!?!?! Where's the COMPASSION? Does it exist anymore? (Big sigh) DOSHA WAS HIT by a car near her owner’s home on April 15. Next, a police officer shot her in the head to put her out of her misery. Then, presumed dead, she was put in a freezer at an animal control center.     Two hours later, when a veterinarian opened the door to the freezer, she was shocked to find Dosha, a 10-month-old of mixed breeding, standing upright in a plastic orange bag — the equivalent of a human body bag. Want to help Dosha? Clearlake Animal Welfare Society 707-994-3499     Appearing on national television Wednesday, Dosha seemed in fine spirits apart from the gunshot wound to her head and other injuries sustained from being hit by the car.     “When she first came in we called her miracle girl because we couldn’ t believe what she had gone through and was still with us,†said veterinarian Deborah Sally on NBC’s “Today†show.     “She’s doing amazingly well,†added Sally, who said the dog had suffered from hypothermia after being put in the fridge.     The police chief in Clearlake, Calif., defended the officer who shot Dosha. Police Chief Bob Chalk says the officer did nothing wrong when he shot the dog in the head last week. He says the dog had been hit by a car and was in pain.     Police say the dog’s owner may be cited for letting her pet run free. The case remains under investigation by police and Animal Control.     The Associated Press and Reuters contributed to this story. ---------------------- Reasons I have chosen veganism as a way of life for myself and my family: <A HREF= " www.dumpdairy.com " >www.dumpdairy.com</A> <A HREF= " www.milksucks.com " >www.milksucks.com</A> <A HREF= " www.goveg.com " >www.goveg.com</A> <A HREF= " http://www.helpinganimals.com/ " >http://www.helpinganimals.com/</A> <A HREF= " http://www.stopanimaltests.com/ " >http://www.stopanimaltests.com/</A> <A HREF= " http://www.furisdead.com/ " >http://www.furisdead.com/</A> <A HREF= " http://action.fund.org/action/index.asp " >http://action.fund.org/action/ind\ ex.asp</A> <A HREF= " http://www.animalsvoice.com/ " >http://www.animalsvoice.com/</A> <A HREF= " http://www.commandochicks.com/ " >http://www.commandochicks.com/</A> <A HREF= " http://www.notmilk.com/ " >http://www.notmilk.com/</A> <A HREF= " http://www.pcrm.org/ " >http://www.pcrm.org/</A> <A HREF= " http://www.vegsource.com/ " >http://www.vegsource.com/</A> <A HREF= " http://www.veganoutreach.com/ " >http://www.veganoutreach.com/</A> <A HREF= " http://www3.mistral.co.uk/traub/faqvegan.html " >http://www3.mistral.co.uk/t\ raub/faqvegan.html</A> <A HREF= " http://www.vegan.com/ " >http://www.vegan.com/</A> <A HREF= " http://www.vegan.org/ " >http://www.vegan.org/</A> <A HREF= " http://www.coolvegan.com/ " >http://www.coolvegan.com/</A> Meet Your Meat: <A HREF= " http://www.goveg.com/mym-hi.rm " >http://www.goveg.com/mym-hi.rm</A> Subscribe to my Vegan_Animal_Rights today: Vegan_Animal_Rights/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 24, 2003 Report Share Posted April 24, 2003 GOSH I KNOW!!! I heard about that on the news (I live in WA) and my friend sent me the article from msn. I said the exact same thing!! grrrr The part that made me the most mad was: " Police Chief Bob Chalk says the officer did nothing wrong when he shot the dog in the head last week. He says the dog had been hit by a car and was in pain. " GOD!! He couldn't have taken it to a vet to TRY and help it?? Or at LEAST get it euthanized PEACEFULLY and painlessly instead of just shooting it in the head like.. a piece of garbage or something!?! > -------------------------- You all may have heard about this story already, but this is the first time I read it, and I was shocked!
