Like I mentioned earlier, they stated on their facebook page yesterday that he was having surgery today. So it's public knowledge. I'm reading the bolded comment as "it's still just a stitches job HOWEVER it's surgery to put things back together nicely etc., The 'however' is my word meaning the surgery is not as straight forward as just needing stitches. I may be way off track but that's what I took kelpiecuddles comments to mean. Maybe kelpiecuddles will come back to clarify. First, OP said they talked to a family friend who said it was just stitches, but the zoo's statement clearly said surgery. Then OP says inside information is surgery. It's not inside information if it's public knowledge.

They stated on their facebook page he's going for surgery today.

Sounds like the behaviourist has been spending too much time watching Cesar Millan.

Do you have a link to the source of this information?

Where do you live?

Perhaps you should refrain from posting considering you seem to be in a bad mood and are not making sense. I'm in a great mood. Thanks for your concern, though. :)

Given you've only been a member here since the start of the year you may want to be a bit more supportive of topics that you have seen before, you'll see it alot more in the future, if they irritate you just don't click into them. Who died and made you god? I don't believe anybody died and made anyone God. Sas was making a valid point. No such thing as a topic being done to death when there are new members joining up all the time and new input becomes available. On the other hand, narky and useless comments such as yours need to stop being done to death. And being condescending to a new member is a-ok? Got it.

Joke's on them, huh?

Impatiens, I thought the beach pic was a 1940s photo for a second. Great photo! :)

I wish I could find the other article. But that's not what really happened according to onlookers....

Elephants are my favourite animal and reading Lawrence Anthony's books has made me appreciate them more. So this is very upsetting for me.

And that is why Huskies rule.

I was looking after my friends dogs a few years ago and one of them was acting strange and kept scooting along the floor. She had a stick in her bum about 30cm long. The look she gave me when I pulled it out was pure relief/I love you. :laugh:

I have no advice, but Huskies are close to my heart and I am truly, truly so sad that you lost your beloved baby.

Wow. He has other facial expressions. :laugh:

Yep, I'm pretty sure if that dog wasn't stopped so quickly the child could have died from injuries/blood loss. Eye-rollingly I saw a comment on line from someone that said 'That dog looks like a Rhodesian Ridgeback, they were bred to hunt lions in Africa. There is no place for these dogs in our society!!'. Really?! Well, considering the dog is a Lab x Chow, I''m pretty sure neither of those two breeds were bred for hunting in Africa.

I felt uneasy watching the kid pull on the cats leg. Geez I better watch that again then as i didn't see any leg pulling. Ouch !!! Just a snippet of the actual video I saw which I can't find now.

If you do a search here for rspca, many threads will show up. Thanks Cody - I feel somewhat stupid for not thinking of that myself. Hehe. That's ok! :)

I wouldn't donate to the rspca or any religious based charity. But if I was asked to donate to any other animal charity, I would.

Yep agree with everything here. I think his woollen cap and gotten wet too many times and it's strangling his brain :laugh:

Even though it is a terrible idea, banging saucepan lids is much less cruel than, say, poisoning neighbourhood dogs.
