THANK you!

Eh. Most businesses don't allow associates to confront or go after shoplifters. Unless a security guard (unlikely, a lot o businesses won't pay for this) or a manager is present, you can easily stroll out of most places with an armful of merchandise. A smart thief figures out the scheduling and acts accordingly. …
I didn't reference the Facebook page, so I hadn't seen this. I'm wondering why the full interview (as presented by the FB page) wasn't more extensively quoted in the already sympathetic LA Times article. I'm skeptical of its legitimacy. The constant pictures of the four-year old feel manipulative, the continuous…
Still not clear on how you aren't being radically judgmental on the thread or how the shelter acted badly.
Are we really about e-cigarettes looking cool? I'd think that would be the least convincing argument against these things.
The rural issue would certainly make a difference. Thanks for the additional info!
The microchip is inserted via needle injection. It's usually done with vaccinations. It's not a procedure that needs to be lumped with surgery. The dog should have had its vaccinations at that point, so I don't see the delayed spay as a solid reason for not chipping.
Not a perfect failsafe, but it does "prove" ownership.
Yeah, about dialing down the judgment...I assume that applies to everyone's post except yours?
Um, $300 isn't excessive for a rescued animal—that fee pays for microchipping, spay/neuter, vaccinations, and often a dental—you couldn't get that at a vet for that price if you tried. That amount also doesn't begin to cover the medical expenses these Rescues rack up trying to care for special needs dogs/seniors/etc.…
It's not Google Glass, it's you...you are a wanker.
Clearly Germany is hogging all the good commercials.
Sold.
The fuck?
Nobody puts cheese in the corner.
There are two conflicting claims, the city claims there's an entire menagerie, the woman claims she has the service horse and an Alpaca that has visited the home only once (it normally lives on a farm elsewhere). Will be interesting to see how this shakes out.
You may want to re-word, the animal wasn't seized. It's not in custody. The family was told it couldn't stay on the property if the horse remained. The story is still f*&ked up, but I think it's worth clarifying that the city didn't take the animal.
Weird. I know that the mini-horses are used as an alternative to dogs in communities of faith or culture that regard dogs as unclean.
There's no such thing as a certification for service animals, but it looks like the doctor's endorsement is really all you'd need (and apparently they have it) to establish the legitimacy of its status.
