breaks my heart to see things like this, i love my dogs like theyre children.

I have 4 chihuahuas an 2 cats if i had a fenced in yard id be there getting the 2 pretty pits they have in a heart beat. I hate that they have to come to a point of being put down. Many of them are just unfortunate lost strays or abandoned good pets

i hate that this happens. If money were no object i would adopt every dog i saw like this. awesome of the op trying to get the word out to try to save the poor guys lives. there out to be a sticky on here that posts the dogs/cats at local shelters that are about to be euthanized so that people on here can try to help.

It really sucks but, that's how it works. Adopting a pet is very risky and a lot of people know this.

I hate to hear about any animal getting put down
