http://www.13wham.com/news/local/story/Rosko-K9-laid-off-Geneseo/8_xc5_2L6Uuqf1ETZsQnlg.cspxThey are laying the dog off and even though the dog will not likely be picked up by another canine unit they may sell the dog to the highest bidder and not let him stay with his partner, to whom the dog is like family.
Asswipe Pukeheads. The mayor of this village is a Pukehead I checked.
Its probably because the dogs are smarter than they are. Asswipe mayor even called the dog an it.
I can't stand asswipe dog hating Pukeheads.

(47,675 posts)1. Owning dogs involves compassion. Do I need to go beyond that?

the Pukes have no compassion gene!

But if it isn't, the mayor is dumber than dumb AND an insensitive asshole.

(7,549 posts)4. You're right. It probably is just a play for money.
I just hope the dog gets to stay with his partner and doesn't get dragged away from his home and his family.

(12,272 posts)5. The story says that in the past, the dogs did get to stay with their handlers
Which I completely agree is the right thing to do. It is unbelievable that the department is giving up the dog's skills and just selling him, that will hurt them in the long run.

(7,549 posts)6. The station did an update at Noon today
They said after the story ran people contacted them and offered to make donations, one lady even offered to donate the money to the town, to keep the dog on duty.
The mayor said he will have to go to the Council and see what they want to do first before he accepts anything.
