Last night on BBC1 ( The most watched TV channel in the UK ), at 8.30 PM ( The primetime slot ) in the summer Holidays ( When children are off school and staying up later than usual so even younger children were awake and probably watching ), Panorama a respected documentary program showed a perfectly healthy dog being put down and shocked us with the knowledge that 1 perfectly healthy dog is put down every hour in the UK


Discuss

1) Does this end the myth that the UK are a nation of dog / animal lovers ?

2) Was killing the dog on TV at this time acceptable ?

3) Are shock tactics like this justified to get a serious point about irresponsible dog owners and breeders across to the public ?

People are stupid. They didn't need to show it to get their point across.

Both the show, and the people who put their dogs down simply because of bogus reasons like (refusing to feed them, or to busy for them etc) deserve to be shot.
