indwangu- hi yes I have experienced the shock and awe of komo and many other news reporters first hand with stories that were very exagerated but unfortunately-they've probably got it right with Everett Animal Shelter-sounds like some investigating should be done but I have got to say that the more I hear about shelters the more saddened I become. Animals are NOT safe in animal shelters-most of these shelters are just death camps-and the responsibility begins with PEOPLE who do not take care of their pets or act as if the animal is disposable! sad story-sad that the people didn't get to adopt the dog-and that the dog was put down :-(

But this was a long time ago-at least 20-and I thought maybe they are better now-I guess not. Hope they can come up with proof the dog was that ill-sounds like someone got lazy and just didnt do their job or did the minimum. Regardless-the dog again is the one to suffer. I live in Everett and had considered volunteering there but something about that place makes me wonder....

Unfortunately-this isn't a big suprise to me. Years back my boyfriend had a very sad experience with them-his dog scared someone-and ended up at the shelter basically in doggy jail. The dog was not dangerous at all. He was a playful boxer who scared a disabled woman when he charged her. How it was handled was absolute bs. Someone came in to Everett Shelter and was basically cornering the dog and poking at the dog with some object like a broom or maybe they have something they use and the dog was growling. They labeled him dangerous and killed him on Christmas Eve while the family was trying to get the money to get him out. He never bit anyone-he just scared a woman but this is how it was handled-the story was in the newspaper of the dog wearing a birthday hat and the children laying all over the dog-and the headline was something like does this dog look like a dangerous dog.
