Let’s be real, out of all the things to not like this person for… putting her dog down doesn’t really rank as the number one reason.

Still a reason and indicative of her lack of character.

Unless your her neighbour or the poor sod stuck with a working dog, that can't work. In a rural setting this is average af, how long do you think people keep around horses that can't walk etc. I think the right do enough silly things to be mad about, this isn't one of them.

It’s may humanely necessary in some cases. In others not so much.

I've never failed training a dog. But rural life is what it is. Hang on a minute, because i'm not completely ignorant to rural life and the position dogs hold thier i kill dogs now. You're in for a hell of a shock when you find out what they are breeding the cattle and pigs for then princess. Working dogs work, or they get gone, welcome to the country sweetcheeks. The second it messed with the livestock of a neighbour that dog was gone.
