A 19-year-old New Zealander couldn’t bear to see his 5-month-old puppy put down, so he kidnapped his own dog from a clinic to save it from euthanasia.
A car hit Buck, Bronson Stewart’s dog, two weeks ago. Neither Bronson nor his father Kevin could afford the $1,730 needed to pin the puppy’s broken leg back together. They couldn’t even afford the $555 to have the leg amputated. The Stewarts, who live on welfare, offered to pay the clinic $3.50 a week until the debt was paid off. The clinic declined and the veterinarian refused to return the puppy, saying “it was best the dog be euthanized because he was in agony.”
Bronson then went to the clinic and asked to see his dog. He grabbed the puppy and ran home.
Once the story gained publicity, local people began donating money to save Buck’s life. Val Waters, manager of the Wanganui Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, reports that enough cash has been raised to pay for Buck’s surgery.
now THATS what I call a happy ending…(curtains fall)
I probaly would have done the same thing for my pup!
That is awesome really cool that they pitched in for da cash
that is a awesome story.
that took some guts I guess man is now dogs best friend
It’s just like one of those fairy tales: “And they lived happily ever after.”
p.s. I think the dog is a labrador retriever.
Go dognapper maybe
Stewart must have loved his dog so much, he would steal his own dog.
that was such a good story
I agree with you yoyo
Good for the teenager, that veternarian should be arrested or somthing.The veternarian is NOT the boss.I for one am kinda shocked!!!!!!!!It’s cool that the people banded together and helped out with the dough.
poor dogy
awwwww! thats so sad
that poor puppy. I couldn’t bear to see my dog to be put down.
I cant beleive that the clinic would decide to do that . Good movebronson.
that must be the only case where kidnapping is good
but good guy to save his dog
those bad people,u dont kill puppys,u have fund rasier or something dont kill puppys
If you dont have enough for pet incurance, dont get a pet.
That’s unfair! It isn’t the puppy’s fault its owner doesn’t have enough money for even keeping his pet alive!
THATS SO COOL!!!! GET BETTER BUCK!:)
he was very brave!
I agree with Taigers12.
That is just a blessing from God, if that boy did not do what he thought was right his dog would be dead. So thank the Lord he is safe.
That was a totally good move!
I can’t believe the clinic refused to help the dog!
I know!
Clinics need money to operate.
i love dogs ,that one is really cute
That is so awesome
Very nice.
wow……
i hope he gets better!!
That puppy is so cute.What a good story!
That is probably not a picture of the puppy.
Wow, that just proves that grown-ups don’t always know what’s best.
that does prove that adults don’t know what is best.
I know.
