A service dog, REALLY? It doesnt get much worse than that!
That is really awful. My heart goes out to Mr. Newell. Poor Red – he didn’t deserve this sad and tragic ending.
So sad for the veteran and his beloved dog. Please catch the culprits and punish them severely!
Every day I get more and more disgusted by so called human beings
Please tell me that carries a harsher penalty.
