Abandoned Stray Is Covered In Permanent Ink – Rescuer Finds They’re Desperate Messages

Animal lovers often ask the same question when reading these stories:

How can humans do such obscene things to innocent creatures, especially dogs? Man’s best friend doesn’t deserve such malicious treatment!

If you’re in a position where you can no longer care for an animal, you do the responsible thing and try to find it a good home. At the very least, take it to a no-kill shelter.

You don’t just abandon it to the elements and forget the poor thing even exists.

And you certainly don’t cover it in messages with permanent ink!

Granted, the messages in question were cries for help but even so, there were better ways to deal with such a situation. And rescuers can’t believe this is what the previous owner chose to do.

The dog in question was found wandering around a park with several messages scrawled in ink all over its body. Thankfully, a Good Samaritan delivered the dog to a nearby shelter.

Those messages read “Free” and “Good Home Only,” which really stunned Brittany May, Ross County Human Society shelter manager:

“So I usually try to contain my self with my work life and with what I see every single day, but this just tops it off!

How are you going to dump your dog, and write FREE all over it in permanent marker! I just don’t get it!

Anybody know this dog? Found dumped at the armory down in the park! This is a whole new level of LOW!”

Everyone is just baffled as to why anybody would do such a thing. If you wanted the dog to have a good home, why didn’t you try to find one?

And since when do you paint up a dog with permanent ink? Is that supposed to make your decision any less despicable?

Sometimes, one has to wonder what’s going on in the minds of pet owners … but one thing’s for sure:

They should never have been pet owners in the first place!
