Could be a legal thing, I don't know, didn't ask, I was in shock, getting ready to race up there before they closed and take his picture, maybe cop a cuddle. I did suggest that they make dumpers sign a release form, but if people are hell-bent on offing their pets, asking them to sign the animal over to someone who is basically opposing their wishes may be a pipe-dream. No, I'd fine them; anyone who wants to put down a healthy animal, and refused rehoming, would have to pay a whopping great fee. Time we stopped treating animals like OBJECTS.
