Foolishness to you. Love and compassion for them. To each his own.

“A fool and his money are soon parted.”

What a cold response when you consider the fact that they took on a loan to help the poor dog. I see no reason to disparage them.

Had they demanded the state pay, OK. However, they did what they felt was right, and I for one agree with them.

If taking out a loan is what a compassionate heart told them to do, I would not call it foolishness. How much money differentiates compassion and foolishness anyway? Who defines that standard?

You seem not to have a full understanding of the motivations of pet people.

For them (and I’ve been guilty of this once or twice), the foolish thing would be to hold on to the money and just keep driving by the injured dog.

I’m chuckling reading all the responses back to you regarding your original comment. I don’t necessarily agree with you (and ain’t it wonderful that we don’t have to) but I sure understand where you’re coming from. They will never let it go.....ever.....ever....no, really, ever. But these are mild compared to some of the responses I received when I “voiced” my opinion on the woman veterinarian that shot the cat in the head with her bow and then stupidly posted pictures to Facebook. :)
