Funny how things change

Around 6 years ago our resident narcissist owned 3 dogs.  They were outside dogs without any fencing or dog run.  They were permitted to roam freely and were frequently picked up by animal control.  One day, one of the dogs was chasing a car and got hit.  Our narcissist waited a few weeks to have the dog treated for it's broken leg and refused to get proper treatment.  The vet warned about infection and the dog dying because of non-treatment.  The dog needed to get the leg amputated.  Another week later the narcissist brought the dog in to get it's amputation.  The pain and cruelty that this dog suffered waiting for treatment was unreal.
Now she blogs about people not having their dogs leashes.
"Ideally I would love to let "rover" dog run wild.  (And I do when we go trail running)  But for runs in town I keep my dog on a leash.  First for his protection, second to be a courtesy and responsible pet owner, and third he makes me run faster."

Suddenly she is so thoughtful of her dog.  A proud, responsible dog owner!
