So, my dog sitter is the Saint Roch of the modern era, and, as she does, she collected a runaway pup who was out in the road with its sibling/buddy (she couldn’t catch the brother). The dog had a collar, no tags, but quite clearly belongs somewhere. She’s checked with surrounding homes, took to the vet to scan for a chip (none), and is now putting up fliers. I offered to post a picture and her info on Next Door even though I live a town away from where the dogs were. I get a notification…

and there are two replies, both bitching about “why don’t people have fenced in yards” and boohoo how they’re so tired of these list animals because OF COURSE! I didn’t ask for your opinion — I’m trying to help a dog find its family. But thanks for the time-waster. Go post your shitty opinion about how only people who can afford fenced in yards should have pets over on Facebook. Maybe the dogs jumped the fence. Do you know? NO. You don’t.

@LKNWoman exactly the kind of thing that chases me off every time. I look at our neighborhood’s posts and my brain begins to bleed. Those folks are not well… 😦🫨🫥🫥🫥

@NorCalCherylLyn I HATE Next Door and have it filtered to JUST show lost pets. I immediately blocked and muted those 2 commenters. Honestly.

@LKNWoman the dogs running free threads can be so ugly here. People are really nasty!
