I disagree, with Rambo!
That’s exactly what we are discussing!

It is legal to put pets away for running wild, being overpopulated, having a disease of any kind, being un-trainable (?) … Biting someone, barking to laud, killing other animals, becoming a nuisance to own, or simply growing to old.
Worse yet, we can put away our pets for no reason at all, as long as we don’t do it inhumanely. Whatever that is???

We can do that because of the laws we pass.
Pets are considered property, and the responsibility, rests with the owner.

While I am in agreement with not letting the animal suffer.
I could never give humans the opportunity to make the call when humans are involved.

People tend to take the word “My” to mean “theirs”, and when it comes to the ownership of someone else’s pet, you have no right to do anything except bitch, and complain.

But “My” father’s life belonged to him.
“My” mother’s life belonged to her
“My” uncle’s life, bla, bla, and bla!

Since you couldn't talk to your pet, You simply did not know.
Therefore! It is the (((laws))) that givie you the right to decide that your pet should die.

Where I agree that humans are animal, I disagree that we are someone’s pet.
