Rookie Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 My neighbor has, well had, this little white dog (bichon frieze) that was always getting out and coming over to my house and chasing my wifes cat around. The thing was a pain in the ass and could run like hell. Sometimes it would take me 20 minutes to catch that damned dog. I comlpained every time to the dogs owner (single Mom with 3 kids) and she'd just kind of do a "golly gee" shuffle, take the dog and shut the door. She did mention once that the kids loved the dog more than anything in the world. One time, the mutt came over and was chasing the cat again. I had to leave something in the garage to go try to catch the dog and take it back home. I caught the dog, and took it back next door, but they weren't home. I used a little piece of twine that I hooked to the collar and tied to the post on the front porch of their house. I gave it a bowl of water and left. I went back home and remembred I had to meet my wife to make arrangements for her parent's 25th wedding anniversary. I cleaned up and jumped in the car. I have one of those long driveways that clear to the back of the house so I have to back slowly to make a bend in the driveway. Just as I went around the little bend there was a yelping/howling noise that would wake the dead. I jumped out of he car and it was the damned dog flopping around on the ground like a fish. It somehow got loose and came back over. To make a long story short, the damned dog died and I buried it in my back yard. The kids are putting up posters all over the neighborhood and still crying about it 5 days later. I disnt want to tell them because they know I hated the dog and I just know they'd think I killed it on purpose. Frankly, I hated the fucking thing and I'm glad it's dead, but should I tell the family what really happened? Quote

Lethalfind Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 Dude your nuts if you do. I had a similar problem with a couple neighbors who let their dogs wander. I relocated them to the dog pound in the next county. One of the little bastards would dig up my flower beds which I slaved over. The other one would steal things from my house, like my gardening gloves, my tools, any shoes left by the front door, my daughters toys etc. They were no kill shelters. Fuckin keep your beasts at home. Why did the dog die?? I mean did it get into something or was it run over or something? Quote I am a pathetic piece of shit leeching single mom.

rizzo Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 Yes, you should tell them. At least then they would know what happened, and that their dog is not coming back. It doesn't matter that the dog annoyed you, they loved it. It was an accident (wasn't it?) and the Mom is responsible for keeping the dog at home, not you. Ultimately, it's her fault that the dog got hit, but don't make the kids pay for it by not knowing what happened to their dog. Quote
KathyA Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 No, I absolutely don't think you should tell them.. I went through something similar, as a child. Family pet went missing, us kids put pictures up everywhere.. My parents led us to believe that he had run away.. And that he was probably being taken care of by someone else at that point.. Sure we were upset.. But it was alot easier for us a children to think that our treasured pet was alive, rather than gone forever.. It wasn't until years later that we found out the truth. The dog had snuck out one cold winter night. My dad, found him frozen solid in a snow bank 2 days later. Quote I want a sensitive man - one who'll cry when I hit him.
Phantom Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 I would tell them. Do it anonymously if you can't own up to it. Quote Blah.
phreakwars Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 Dig up the dog, throw it in the road while they are asleep, and let them find the carcass in the morning.. Make them think that after a long departure away from them, the dog finally found it's way home, and as fate would have it, just as he was trotting up to the house, a fucking car hit him... sad for the kids.. but with life there is death, better the kids learn this now. You can go home and snicker knowing the stupid bitch got what she deserved for not keeping her dog chained up. . . 1 Quote https://www.facebook.com/phreakwars
