Can't afford to board your dogs - just shoot them

Ohio firefighter David Santuomo was going on a cruise but who's going to take care of his two dogs. Perhaps ask a family member or friend to take them? Check for availability and pricing at local kennels? Have someone stay at or visit your place to check on the pets? Hire a dog walker to check in on the pets and take them out? All viable options, but not for the Santuomo according to a CNN story, who opted to kill his pet dogs Sloopy and Skeeter instead because he couldn't afford to board them. He now faces 90 days of jail time, but it's still unclear whether he'll lose his job.

Last time I heard firefighters made pretty good money but if he really couldn't afford to board them then stay home. Ninety days of jail time is too little. Helen Alvaro
