Once again, we get a reminder that we just never know what we may witness via these live cams...
Note the red SUV coming in, from the main rd, on the right...
Were they playing w/the beautiful dog? What on Earth WERE they doing?
Then, we see the horrifying part - they get in the car, but leave the dog OUT of the car as they try to leave. WTH?!
We see them driving off, dog running around, trying to get in car, then chasing car as they leave.
Unfortunately, vehicle and dog leave our view, so we cannot see what else happened. I didn't keep recording bec I didn't know if we would see the car head back the same way they came and I didn't want this video to risk being too long.
Well sure enough, a few minutes later, I did see them heading back the way they came. I did not see the dog chasing them at that point.
One of the Mods in Hellgate Osprey shared this: "The same car and dog have been in the parking lot before and done the same thing. They must be doing some training with the dog."
My initial thoughts/feelings after reading that was first relief, bec this would then mean that most likely, they did not abandon that dog. We know people do that sort of heinous thing all the time.
My second reaction was:
Training? What the heck kind of training would that be? I'm a dog person and have been for my entire life. I have never heard of, or seen anything like this, even remotely as "training", so no, makes ZERO sense to me. What are they teaching dog - to chase cars?!
The only other thing I considered = was this the humans being completely lazy and rather than some sort of training, this is how they give their dog a run for the day? I have no idea. That possibility doesn't really make sense either bec dog didn't run very long before that vehicle left the parking lot. That's not a whole lot of running to then call it exercise for the day.
Tossing a ball in the parking lot for a good length of time would be a great way for dog to get exercise rather than this dangerous nonsense.
I DO know I don't like it, don't approve of it and certainly don't think dog learns one single thing EXCEPT = don't trust your humans! You'd better not get out of the car sweet, beautiful doggo bec your family might just take off w/out you! That's my take on it anyway. Geez people - wth?!
And how about you? What do you make of it?
~Thanks for watching.
