The beautiful puppy.
A friend of mine bought a pure bred Siberian Husky puppy. He has startling blue eyes and is friendly and aggressive and so damn puppy like! lollol His coat is so soft! He is adorable. My friend, whose kids I am a Godfather for, is in the service. He is a gunner on helicopters. Two weeks after he got the pup who he named Koda, he was informed that he was to be sent to the Honduras to help fight the drug lords. His wife is deathly afraid of Koda whom she see's as being vicious and dangerous to her and her kids. Two weeks after he left town the wife had had enough of this pup. She told Sam that the pup was hurting her and the kids by biting them and terrorizing them. I had been going over to her house and visiting the puppy and knew this to be bullshit. I have raised German Shepherds for years and saw nothing dangerous or terrorizing about this pup at all. Yes, the pup was mouthy but NO BREAKING OF THE SKIN WAS INVOLVED. If a dog, regardless of age is attacking you then there is bound to be some breakage of skin! Koda was just being a puppy. I told Misty, the wife, that if she were to think like a little boy she could easily outsmart Koda and stop what she thought was his misbehavior. She refused stating that Koda was only a dog and she was not going to think like a dog. She asked her husband, Sam, to remove Koda for the safety of his kids. Sam asked his parents to take Koda in for the duration of his tour, a year, and they agreed. They are a pet friendly couple with four chihuahuas and two big "outside" dogs so he figured that he has solved the problem. I also took Koda for weekends here and there to try and train to be sociable. Last night his parents tell him that Koda is dreadfully ill. They see blood in his urine and he is lackluster. Then they admit to putting out anti freeze baited rat traps to stop a rat problem they were having. This is beyond stupid, this is ignorance at its most ugly!!! They had the audacity to blame Misty for the dog getting ill saying, and I quote, "if Misty could of handled the puppy then he would not be at our house to begin with." The rat traps were not eaten by any dog. The dead rats were. Last night I went over to their house, a suggestion by a certain person whom shall rename nameless, Amanisha hehehe, at or about 1am. And asked to be given the puppy so that I could take him to see a vet today. They had not planned on taking Koda to a vet because the Dad was gonna give him shots of penicillin that he had at home. Ignorance followed by stupidity!!! Well guess what their reaction was? They had the nerve to call the cops on me! " there is a crazy man at out door demanding we hand over a puppy that is not his" lollollol Thank God one of the cops was dog friendly and told me that he understood my concern and to go home before the situation turned even uglier! This morning they talked to their son, Sam, and told him that the puppy was just fine and that it was a false alarm. Sam has ordered his wife t go get the puppy and to take him to the vets asap. I am not at all sure what I want to say with this true story as I have to many conflicted feelings... E

HMMM, I HAVE A FEELING THEY WILL NOT TAKE KODA TO THE VETS ASAP BECAUSE THEY DON\'T WANT THE POOCH TO BEGIN WITH!!! I WISH THERE WAS A ANIMAL CONTROL YOU COULD CALL EXPLAINING THE SITUATION FOR THE SAFTY OF THE PUPPY. MAYBE THEN THEY COULD COME OUT TO MAKE SURE KODA IS GETTING THE PROPER TREATMENT HE NEEDS.
IT KILLS ME WHEN I HEAR PEOPLE MISS TREATING ANY HARMLESS DEFENCLESS ANIMAL. I\'M THE FIRST ONE TO ACT IN A SITUATION LIKE THIS. I WOULD DEFINITLY CALL THE ANIMAL PATROL AND LET THEM KNOW WHATS GOING ON BEFORE ITS TO LATE FOR KODA.
POOR KODA MY SUCHA PRECIOUS SWEET AND INNOCEN PUP HAS TO FIND HIMSELF IN THE HANDS OF WRONG OWNERS AND I\'M SURE NOT FEELING MUCH LOVE THERE AT ALL.
YOU KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO ERIC SO DO IT FOR KODA\'S SAKE. BIG HUGS!!! XOXOXOXOXOX
Dear Sexy Michelle,
The wife has Koda at the vet even as I write this.
What I would really like to do is force the parents of Sam to drink anti freeze!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NOW NOW DEAR ERIC WE ALL KNOW THAT WILL NOT SOLVE KODA\'S PROBLEM BUT MAKE THINGS WORSE..LOL.. BUT I DO AGREE IF THIS BE THE TRUTH THAT YOU THINK THEY DELIBERALY PUT THE ANTI FREEZE OUT THERE TO KILL KODA THEN I WOULD BE THERE IN A SEC FLAT HOLDIG THEM DOWN AS YOU SHOVE IT DOWN THEM..LOL.. OHHH I\'M SO BAD. BUT SUCH A ANIMAL LOVER I WOULD DO ANYTHING TO PROTECT THESE INNOCENT CREATURES THAT GOD PUT IN THIS WORLD TO MAKE US SMILE LEARN TO LOVE AND FEEL LOVE... OK OK MICHELLE STOP IT NOW....LOL..
SEE YOU GET MY STARTED ERIC I CAN\'T SHUTUP NOW...LOL.
Dear animal hater Michelle, hehehehe
They did not put out the anti freeze baited traps to hurt Koda, nor their own dogs, but because they were choosing to be ignorant as they are not stupid people.
That is why I would love to pour some antifreeze sown their throats! lol E
You did nothing wrong. I do they they are stupid people.
Dear Breah,
Stupid people cannot help being stupid, ignorant people chose not to do the right thing as they are being lazy. There is quite a difference between stupid and ignorant. Stupid people cannot help being stupid and I have no problem with them. Ignorant people are those that chose not to learn, not to do the right thing, they I do have a problem with. Sam\'s parents were being ignorant!!! E
I got that back ward, I thought ignorant meant you just didn\'t know and stupid meant you choose not to do the right thing. Woops lol
ps it took me awhile to comment back because I didn\'t understand your hug. I have pregnancy brain lol.
Dear Breah, you would not be familiar with either term cuz you have never heard them used on you, I have so I found out what each one means lollol cuz they were, for a time, used on me!!!
I love dogs so much, and I feel so bad for Koda. He deserves a proper home where it\'s safe for him, and where people will have the time & patience to deal with him. Dogs aren\'t for everyone, and they\'re a lot of hard work.
How much longer until Sam comes home? I have a feeling this story isn\'t over yet, and you\'ll be hearing more \"crap\" from Misty. She obviously doesn\'t want the dog.
Could Misty put him in foster care for awhile, at least \'til Sam gets back? Maybe he\'ll get some proper training from his foster-owners.
Dear Sexy Motorcycle Momma Slim,
He has about ten months but I highly doubt that Koda will live that long! Eric
Koda deserves better than that....is there anyone that can step in here and help ? I know you have tried. Does Sam have any way that he can suggest someone else to watch the dog until he returns? Is there anyone that you can report this to to get Koda help? You said that you doubt that koda would survive.,,,,how so very sad!!! Years ago I had given away one of my Doberman puppies to a lady that looked like would give her a good home...decided to pay her a visit and found the puppy chained with the water and food bowl empty and it eating insulation...it was skin and bones...the lady I gave her to had cancer and was in the hospital and her kids were watching the dog....had a friend of mine ask the lady if I could take the puppy back and care for it until she got out of the hospital and she said that it would break her kids hearts if I were to do that.....It made me sick to think that a puppy that I took such good care of and a sweet puppy had to go through that....I regret not taking it further and seeing if I could\'ve found help for her.....no doubt she didn\'t last long after that and all I could think about was how she suffered.....however, there are times when we have done everything we can....and it might be out of our hands......hopefully people out there will get educated about the care of animals so they can have the best life possible......I\'m sure your friend, Sam appreciates everything you have done!!! Thanks for sharing!!!!! Linda :)
Dear Younger than her son Mommie Linda,
I have already found a place where Koda can stay until Sam gets off his tour of duty but will he take it? I hope so as I feel the same way as you do about dogs. Eric
I know Eric......just so frustrating..... :)
That it is young Mommie, that it is.
I\"m sorry I am so late in responding to this - I have not been around all that much. An antibiotic for anti-freeze??? Yes - very stupid! I do hope that Koda lives. Good for you for caring so much. You know how I feel about my animals and I can\'t imagine just sitting there - and thinking a shot in the morning will cure the dog - poor litlte koda. I am so glad that you took those steps on Koda\'s behalf - I hope someone got him to the vet.
