Some people should never have pets

I get upset when I read stories like this, it almost made me cry. A woman abandoned her 2 year old dog at an airport in Colombia South America. The poor dog wandered the airport for a month. The poor thing was so distraught that when airport personnel tried to offer him food, the dog wouldn't eat any. So, he became malnourished and died right there in the airport before anyone could get Veterinary help for him.
Does this not sicken you? How could anybody be that mean to a helpless animal?
A dog who was abandoned by her owner at an airport has died of a "broken heart". The dog, called "Nube Viajera'' or Wandering Cloud by the vets who treated her, spent a month wandering around the terminal at Palonegro airport near Bucaramanga, Colombia h

Yes I hate stories like this. However the airport personnel made a mistake too they should have called animal welfare people.

And all animals desire and need, is sustenance, shelter, and tons of love.

@kobesbuddy Yes, you have heard the stories of dogs not wanting to leave their master's graves.

@LeaPea2417 And in return, they give complete devotion and unconditional love, for their entire life-time.

That is true. Maybe some of the people at first thought he was a stray.

That is horrible, my newest dog Roscoe was found abandoned in a park in Hartford, CT and he is the most loving little dog that I can't imagine anyone not wanting him.

Why didn't the airport personnel call an animal shelter sooner? After a couple of days it should have been picked up. If the owner gave a damn then it could have tried to find the dog. I blame the airport just as much as the owner @LeaPea2417 .

If I cannot care for my dg I will give him away to someone who can and will love him.

That is what all should do, if they realize they can't care for their pet.

I don't like to read how animals have been abandoned. It makes me very angry and I have said before if people do not want to be responsible for their pets they should not have them. If you want to go away someone and you cannot take your pet with you then make sure you have someone responsible to look after them or do not go.

I agree, people should always find a loving home for their pets if they can not take care of them.

How could it possible that none of the security guard notice of the poor dig for a month ? The dog owner would receive retribution when the time comes

I am not sure, maybe for awhile they thought he was a stray.

That is so incredibly sad. =( If I saw that dog I would have found a way to cheer her up and make her happy again.

I agree. Those who mistreat animals usually mistreat people.

That is so heartless. I'm sorry the airport personnel couldn't induce the dog to eat or get near it enough to get it help.

The poor thing. Guess the owner migrated and didn't know what to do with the pet.
