Animal Welfare Friends in Monticello says that someone is abandoning or dumping dogs in Jones County. Now for those of you who don t know what a dumped dog is, I have experience in the term. No, not because I ever got rid of a dog, but because we often took them in.
I grew up on a farm south of Monticello, and often times we would discover a stray dog in the area. They often were very tame and you knew at that point they had been someone s pet. They didn t want the dog anymore so they drove off into the country and dumped it. Fortunately there are kind people like my parents who took in multiple stray dogs. Many became wonderful family members who I have fond memories of. But the act of dumping a dog is cruel and just wrong.
