Thank you for your thoughtfulness and understanding.
Honestly I'm shedding tears over it right now, it's been a long time since I even thought of that tragic situation.
And hell no I nor my family would have ever considered eating Mr. Whiskers nor Rover, that really hits way too close to home!
But a horse, killed by lightning? That's had me wondering about the ethics in the back of my mind every now and then ever since.
Anyways, let's not think any more depressing thoughts, I'm gonna pet our adopted dog Brownie, think happy thoughts, and hope everyone tries their best to have a good new year.
Edit: Brownie...

I can imagine how you feel. It is that the horse sought shelter and got hurt that makes you feel sad the most?
What do you think is/was the right thing to do? If something like that happened today what would you do.
Aw! Very cute :) thanks for sharing
Quick question..
What breed do you think Brownie is? Understandable if you're not sure. The vet listed him as a Dachshund, but I believe he's actually a Doxle..

I really don’t know dog breeds but from briefly looking at photos I think you may be right. Based on the torso and the nose.
