Needless to say, I had her immediately put down, I was OTW before my wife finished kissing his boo boo.
****ing stupid dog, nice 99% of the time, then randomly mean.

I like so much the "needless to say" part.
I can't understand what you're trying to look like giving so much details about your inexplicable behaviour.

My ass. You've put your dog down in a matter of minutes, and that says all about how you consider an animal.
The dog/master relation is definitely a relation that goes 2 ways. While you (
are supposed to) like him a lot for being that sometimes brutal/clumsy/intelligent and kind animal, the dog LOVES you cause you're THE person to him, THE teacher, THE beloved one, THE ONE AND ONLY he would certainly fight for if he had to, basically the one without whom his life wouldn't be what it is. What happened HAS happened because you've not been letting the dog know how things work at home, at least not as much as he needed to understand. Now that you've been making the dog go, why the **** am I wasting my time here, I don't know. Your dog was just there asking for a close and working relationship. I'll just let you alone with your fault, though I'm sure you'll never feel guilty at all.
Basically you're the one and only who failed in your relation with the dog. A dog is innocence, just like any other animal on Earth. So there's no bad dog in the whole world, really : only bad/failing masters feeling better once they feel like they've been "fixing their mistakes" putting their dog down.
We may have had some brief exchanges in here in the past, at least I remember your nickname. But I'm sure we'll never have a single opportunity to speak once again in the future, tater.
"it doesn't work any more the way it's supposed to ? let's remove its batteries, and put it in the garbage". Ah, the american consumer society.
Poor guy.
