Rose: wow!! really surprised that they didn't just put the kitten down!! A few years back,oh probaby more like 10 or so now (how the time flys!) A woman was getting into her car and noticed that there was a guy tying a collie to the back of his car,to the bumper...the guy got in the car and started to drive off! The woman jumped in her car,called the police while following him..I guess some others had seen what was going on and also chased the guy down.When they finally got him to stop,she ran,untied the dog,got the dog into her car and strait to the animal ER.It was the one I use to work at.By the grace of God the dog survived..I truely have no idea how though.Most of her fur and skin had been ripped from her body,broken bones.She had said the dog tried running as much as she could to keep up with the car but finally her legs just gave out.The woman ended up adopting the dog...I would like to know how the rest of her life was.I'm sure the woman made sure she had as happy and loving life as she could.The dog would,just from age,be dead by now.The guy that did this,got a fine and told he was never permitted to own another dog.My thought..HE should have been tied to a bumper and see how long HE could run to keep up with the car before finally colapsing and being drug behind it! Laws DO need to be changed...animals have feeling and thoughts,and hurt when in pain,and it pises me off that anyone could do such things to animals!!!!
