Seriously would anyone out there trust this man to rescue their animals, their children or elderly relative? All of whom could be considered as equally inconvemient as pets! What a waste of oxygen this jerk is!

Now if that were a human that would be premeditated murder. We really need to lobby stronger for animal abuse and cruelty laws.

Make it national, not state of local. He does not need to keep his job, people who are public servants expecially fire fighter are to save lives not end them. How many time have you turned on the new and a fire fighter was administrating oxygen to a dog/cat that they had just rescued from a burning house? Heck, I’ve even seen a few give Mouth to Mouth.

Uh, DUH he should SO lose his job! How can an obiviously sick and twisted person who can’t even take care of his poor dogs EVER be trusted with human lives? This man should be more than just fired, he should be arrested and put in jail for the rest of his life. And the fact that he bragged about it is just disgusting and wrong. Just. Plain. Wrong.
It’s people like him who are ruining our society. Aren’t we supposed to look up to firefighters and trust them? It just goes to show you that animals always bring out the true qualities of people, good or bad. (Or in this case disturbing)

A NO vote here. This guy doesn’t deserve to be a part of anyone’s fire department. In case of a fire at my house, the only things I care about are myself and my little buddy Zig and his 3 birdie brothers. The rest is just stuff that can be replaced. They are my family – all of it, and mean the world to me. Would this man care enough to save their lives first? Probably not. I can’t imagine, well actually yes I can, what I’d say to this creep if I had the chance. This man needs psychotherapy before he’s turned loose in the community in any capacity. If he can do this to his dogs, how would he react in any real stressful situation?

I voted no and I think we should cross post this in every group in dogster. I can not believe someone could be so heartless. I know I wouldn’t want him anywhere near me, my kid, or my pets. How can someone like this be trusted to save a life when he can so heartlessly shoot someone that is suppose to be a part of his family. Not only do I think he should lose his job, I think a long jail term would be nice. Actually I would like to see worse happen but then that would make me like him.

He totally should lose his job as well as deal with the repercussions. I mean, pet sitting or boarding is not that expensive either. I own a pet sitting business and to be honest, I have a TON of fire fighters who use our service. They tend to do 24 hr shifts so I understand it is tough to have a dog when you want someone to watch it all the time.

I cannot imagine such blatant cruelty – the firefighters I know would put their own lives in harms way to “rescue a dog.” This individual doesn’t deserve to say he’s a firefighter. He should be fired, and forced to leave with his “tail tucked between his legs.” He should have a mandatory psych evaluation – people who hurt animals have a “glitch” in their brain somewhere. After the psych eval, he’ll need in depth counseling to figure out why he thought this was a viable solution to his problem.
