Rodman

I wanted to take a moment to write about Rodman. An ole Chow that we just had. He was a good boy but was in so much pain and depressed from being away from his owner. Rodman was finally picked up yesterday from the Maui Humane Society and was evaluated by their Vet to determine that he needed to be put down. I am so happy that they finally listened and put him out so he wasn't suffering anymore. It was very hard to watch and very emotional.

I have been a supporter of the Humane Society for years both financially and publically, but I have to say that they way that this situation was handled was so disappointing. I would say that the only person who was the best was the MHS vet, Dr. Kim. She handled the situation perfectly and professionally. But she has always been one of the best. The animals and the Humane Society are very lucky to have her. But the way the administration handled the whole situation to do the right thing was not something to be desired. It was clear that the best interest of the animal was not at hand. Finally when they sent the officers to pick up the dog to be evaluated, and I told officer Green about his condition and what I thought, she just said "are you a vet"? Just not okay.

I called the Boo Boo Zoo about the situation and they couldn't believe it and gave some good advice. So, it finally worked out and Rodman is now gone and is not suffering and I am so happy about that.

So, think a happy thought for Rodman.
