If I see a dog or a child locked in a hot car, I go in the nearest store and have the owner paged. If I can't find the owner, I call the police. They will get involved. I know a lot of people would think I'm nutty. That's OK. In my humble opinion, vulnerable members of society need our protection.
Welcome back Bare. I don't think you're nutty. I could not stand by and watch someone abuse an animal or child without doing something. There are ways to intervene without getting hurt. Sad situation and it truly makes my blood boil.

Patty you brushed up against evil. Allowing this woman to have a puppy is unbelieveable. Michael Vick wants to have a dog as well and will probably be allowed to OWN one.
