This had made me mad this morning

Posted on our staff intranet

Very sad to announce that I am looking for a good home for a 3yr old German Shepherd bitch.Beautiful friendly dog who unfortunately attacked and killed the pet rabbit yesterday.Natural I know,but the kids are so distraught that I feel the dog will no longer be loved the way she was.She has always been fine with people/kids,although after this event ,a home with other animals may not be a good idea.KC reg,microshipped


all because the dog got the rabbit......me thinks its not just this, it cant be

Im so angry I have had to refrain from replying apart from asking her if she would like me to get in touch with a rescue for her!!

why was the dog allowed near the rabbit, stupid bitch don't deserve the dog if she can rehome for just that reason, the kids might be upset but what is wrong and telling the kids thats its natural instinct in the dog surely they have seen nature programmes on telly, bloody any excuse i think jude ,

as sue says ... any bloody excuse

im not sure i would be able to stop my self having a sly dig at the woman

I sort of have......in a nice sarky way!! couldnt help myself!!

i dont blame ya hun

do you have any more details Jude?

silly nobhead woman btw

I have asked if she wants me to contact a rescue so the dog went to a good home

Why leave a rabbit and dog unsupervised you're asking for trouble?

Dont deserve to own animals if they aint prepared to look after em properly

Not surprised you is mad hun Like you say though it seems a bit harsh treatment of dog surely there is something not being told

exactly hun

i know for a fact if i had left fred and the guinea pigs alone for more than a second ... it wouldnt have been a pretty sight when i got back

Our pigs are always in a pen in the garden but even so they were ALWAYS supervised.

Even when we didn't have Caius and Brogan was asleep indoors I was still paranoid a bird would swoop in on em

i loved my pigs

sorry i couldnt respond properly before but i was at work and we arent allowed on the internet



I posted this reply



I have 2 german shepherds of my own and would be very tempted but the time isnt right. I could put you in contact with some lovely rescue people who will endeavor to find the right home for her.

Please take time to think about this rationally, as upsetting as yesterday must have been the dog acted on instinct and I am sure that if you sit down and speak to the children they will understand this as surely the dog was as much loved as the rabbit and this will be double the trauma for them.......unless of course there are other issues with the dog and this is the excuse to get rid of her!



i couldnt resist the last bit!!!!



my post got a few well said comments from other members of staff though!

ooh well done jude .. i agree..very well said ...

let us know when she replies

nice one hun will be interesting to see if you get a response

well said jude.

Would this person feel the same if she had a greyhound? or even a cat that had caught and killed a cat?

some people

Well done Jude wonder if she will reply or not

did she reply back jude

she replied on the staff forum that she shares a garden with her sister and her sisters children she now cant trust the dog and she is very upset over it. A few members of staff are interested in the dog



my personal view is that theres more than meets the eye there

i agree jude .... if it was me and i ''shared'' a garden, i would fence it down the middle ... nothing like that would make me get rid of one of mine

Sounds like a convenient excuse to get rid of the dog
