Rachel is the one that needs the leash more, Most humans do. This is a tragic loss. I have found 5 homes for wayward dogs and cats each time you let one adopt you say a little prayer that they may be as compassionate as you are. Rachel is a simple self serving self validating person. I hope she grows up. Myself and my families prayers are with you. Peace friend. This broke my heart.

You're exactly right — owning a dog means providing for and keeping it safe for life. And for what it's worth, I plan to use my anger for positive action. There's nothing I can do about Rachel that karma won't do on its own, but there's plenty I can do to help other dogs. Thanks very much for the support, Cliff.

And my hope is that her path leads her to a place where she can understand that the responsibility of a pet's owner is much like the responsibility of a toddler's parent. They depend on us not only to provide food and shelter, but also to watch out for the dangers they never realize are there. And that means keeping them on leash until we have trained them to behave properly off leash and have thoroughly tested that training in controlled circumstances. Even past that point, it means keeping them on leash much of the time. When she reaches that place, perhaps she will understand the depth of her failure in her responsibility to Tyler. Robert, in time I hope you are able to let go of your anger simply because it does you no good to hold on to it. Yes, Robert, she is but a human being struggling on her own path.

My first thought was "Oh, it's Rachel or a friend of hers using a false name." The random and unrelated stab at you professionally is a dead giveaway. I agree with Dax’s assessment.
