Tbh you can debate this all you want...the dog,s gone and no amount of should have,s could have,s will bring it back..the lad made a tough decision out in the field and maybe it was right one...in an ideal world we,d all like to think these decisions are made easily..but they are not. Hats off to all those who have had success with terrible injuries and hats off to those who have had to make the awful choice of pts. The world of running dogs is a fickle one but you must be prepared for every eventuality because everyday out in the field could be its last one...Be prepared folks is all im sayin
