[QUOTE=ITokez;30932103]Dig it back up and give it to your family SURPRISE![/QUOTE] I feel ashamed for laughing at that.
[QUOTE=mbutler2;30932096]It seems the more reasonable ones are telling me to tell the truth. If that is the case then I will have to tell them tomorrow. I tried for help I tried the vet care place. After they told me the sum of money it would cost just to look at him. I thought of people I could call. No one was available. When I took the trip to Wal-Mart and "let it lay there in the hot sun" It was actually in the shade. Besides, even if I didn't go to Wal-Mart what was I supposed to do? Watch it lay there in pain in the shade? instead of doing something about it?[/QUOTE] Putting the dog down was the right thing to do. Everything else you did was fucking stupid and ass backwards and the way you go about it makes you look like you're fucked in the head.
Sorry mom and dad, but I was playing with A FUCKING STUMP and I accidentally BROKE HIS NECK, so I decided to FUCKING SHOOT IT. :downs:
[QUOTE=Kartoffel;30932160]I feel ashamed for laughing at that.[/QUOTE] I agree
hey guys did everyone else notice that everything went to shit after the gold members came in.
I'm wearing this look on my face of overwhelming disgust. the Shallow people of FP care more of a rather stupid animal, than the fact their shallow relies, uncaring for the OP are probably driving him into intense emotional trauma! are you going to drive OP into depression over this? he has enough on his plate and he did the right choice, what he did was dumb, i know, but lay off him. knowing facepunch's reaction to animal-stories, sooner or later people are going to suggest he go to jail or be killed, this is more disgusting than what op did, Facepunch's dumb love for things like kittens is not a good thing, sure, someone who tortures dogs should be jailed, but this is simply atrocious.
[QUOTE=zzzZZZZ;30931911]The dog made it abundantly clear that it was in paralyzing amounts of pain. That, combined with the fact that it was seizing, makes it damn near 100% certain that such an injury would have cost thousands. Even minor surgeries can run upwards of a thousand dollars.[/QUOTE] Yes, true, but the exam wouldn't. If he's too gone to be saved? Take him home and shoot him. If the surgery costs too much? Take him home and shoot him. I should have pointed out that the not taking him to the vet thing wouldn't be that bad on its own, but the manner of posting about the vet that did. For one thing, he was only concerned with the relatively small sum of $76. Additionally, he didn't call his parents immediately after it happened to ask what they wanted him to do. Also, the rest of the post shows a lack of emotion. He's concerned with minor details, such as the state of the yard when he left for Wal-mart, the name of the vet worker, and the price of the bullets. Absolutely no emotion is showed for the loss of the dog, at all, in the entire fucking story. The only emotion shown is the fear of being caught. He nonchalantly talks about how he considered drowning it or bludgeoning it to death, etc. Just read the entire post again and tell me if you see any emotion for the dog at all.

Well, you are an idiot. -snip-
It was just a Dog I guess, And the O.P handle the situation probably not the best, but as he said he didn't have the money so probably the most humane thing to do would of killed it fast and quick, And the users of F.P aren't really helping by trying to make him feel even worse about it.

If you bothered reading the thread you'd realize most of this is about the OP's lack of emotion and empathy for dogs (and gay people) But please, feel free to jump on the bandwagon of "herp all FP cares about is animals :downs:" and contribute nothing to the thread. If you read the post, it's clear he feels no emotion for the dog, only the need to save his own ass. It was an accident, we understand that. I'm not going to fault him for that. It's just the lack of emotion.

I'm not saying that's what OP is currently experiencing, just that it's a possibility.
Stop rating me dumb sobotnick you god damn autist

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQkaD6fG8mk&feature=related[/media] this entire thread.
While I agree that putting it out of it's misery was the best option, the OP completely and utterly failed at going about it. You just made your dog endure horrific pain for maybe an hour or two while you floundered about, and now you want to weasel your way out of the consequences by lying? My dad grew up on a farm in Wisconsin, and situations like this would arise from time to time involving critically injured pets (in his case it was a puppy hit by a car.) For him, it was a hammer (was the only thing on hand and he was 20-30 minutes from home) while for you it could've been a knife from home. What you should've done is found [I]something[/I] to reliably kill the dog as quickly and painlessly as possible instead of going about the convoluted path of sitting around, thinking, then casually walking to Walmart to get ammunition. However, the damage has already been done, we could argue all day about how you should've properly taken care of your dog, but it's a little too late for that. What you need to do now is tell your parents. They may scream at you, they may cry, but unless you're some sociopath you do [I]not[/I] want this on your mind.
Thread of the year all years
That dog must have been dumb as a stump.

If we took it to the vet they would have put it down and charged us a lot, so it would have been a worthless, futile effort and would have the dog sit through more pain. We had to do what we had to do, I've had dogs die on me before (One was poisoned, the other was stomped to death by a cow :smith:) and I knew what was happening, we handled it as best we could. He would have taken it to the vet but I informed him of this, we decided to put it down sooner rather than later. It wouldn't have survived either way.
this needs to be stickied in DDT.

[QUOTE=bradley;30932289] He would have taken it to the vet but I informed him of this[/QUOTE] oh my god what the fuck is wrong with you.
[QUOTE=Mister Cool;30932202]Well, you are an idiot. You didn't think of maybe taking it to a vet?[/QUOTE] The animal was already in shock. It was seriously injured, and even with thousands and thousands of dollars of treatment it's unlikely it would have survived anyway. It sounds to that due to the extent of its injuries, any treatment option would have just made the animal suffer longer. Putting it down was the humane thing to do. OP, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Besides, what the fuck? I know for a fact I couldn't take a fucking knife to my dog. Guess that makes me inhumane or something.
[QUOTE=mbutler2;30931921]By the way the offering to post the pictures was sarcasm, even if I did, I think some of you would say it was shopped.[/QUOTE] [img]http://i419.photobucket.com/albums/pp280/Ghost_G45/idiotonfp.png[/img] "Seriously, this is my dog."
[QUOTE=GrabbinPills;30932309]oh my god what the fuck is wrong with you.[/QUOTE] Oh, I'm sorry, I guess we could have loaded it in a truck and let it go through more pain in a bumpy, long drive to the vet, where it would have taken him a good half hour to get exammed, and then the vet would have killed it there, and paid them a hefty fee (we're talking between 500 and a grand). That's a great idea.
Somebody lock this thread it's getting ridiculous.
Can't blame you for shooting it. Try not throwing around large objects in an enclosed area with two playful animals in it. Shit sucks dude, be a man and tell your parentals.
