Today, after backpacking acrossing Europe for a month, I picked up my dog from the doghouse. No one will listen to me or acknowledge the fact that he's now missing two toes. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got home only to discover my dog was missing. After spending ages roaming the freezing streets calling his name, I returned to find him stuck behind the couch with my chewed-up new shoes in his muzzle. FML
Today I adopted a dog. He ran away the same day. FML
Today, I bought a dog to make me feel less lonely. He ran away. FML
Today, my dog ran away. Luckily my neighbors caught him before he got too far. Now they won't give him back because they think I did something to him to make him want to run away. FML
Today, while I was on a field trip with my son, my husband decided to get rid of our dog without asking anyone. Now I get to pick up the pieces of a broken heart, and he thinks he did nothing wrong. FML
Today, my boyfriend finally let me take his dog on a walk, after two years of not trusting me to keep her safe. During the walk, a car drove by, causing her to run after it and pulling the leash out of my hand. Five hours later, and I still can't find her. FML
Today, I got a call about my dog who went missing a week ago. The guy who called said "We have your dog, but you aren't getting her back." Then he hung up. FML
Today, I went to pick up my dog from a friend's place since she agreed to watch him while I went out of state for Spring Break. I arrived at her apartment. She’s gone and the apartment was vacated. She won’t answer her phone or texts, and vanished from all social media. I’m still making payments on the dog. FML
Today, my dog ran away. I looked for him for 5 hours, and when I came back home, he was waiting for me at the door. FML
Today, I opened my car door on reaching destination and my dog escaped. I never found him. My destination was the vet's office to get him micro-chipped. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

This is why I wouldn't ever let my dog go into a kennel. I'm not bashing all kennels, nor am I bashing people who put their pets in kennels; I'm simply stating the my dog is my baby and I wouldn't trust her with anyone other than close family.

Kennels work on reputation. so spread the word about this hell hole, to save anyone elses pet from going through this.

As far as you know it is animal abuse if you have a picture of before he went in there or proof that his two toes were there beforehand, call the police.

Dear Icemaster, Don't apologize. Your animal cruelty can not be absolved by anything short of Lex Talonis. The Lord

Maybe he tried to hitchhike his way out of there.

How do you lose toes from hitchhiking?

For what??? How do you price your dogs toes??
teague95 16
why would finding a old picture matter? the dog had the fricken toes to begin with
BruisedGiraffe 15
47 you would need to prove that he had the toes to begin with

That really sucks, dog. Damn, I'm freaking clever. Are there any trophies for such amazing puns? A badge? No?
nado13579 12
No trophy, but you do get a few thumbs down.

Look on the bright side, at least he is still alive. He could be dead, missing, etc. Demand for your money back and never go there again.
everydayFML2121 5
Exactly! I'd say your lucky because that's barely noticeable. 3 toes... 5 toes... However many ******* toes a dog has... You have nothing to worry about!!!
lexa1love 16
I'm sorry but I wouldn't care if my dogs missing toes were noticeable. The facility obviously did something to allow the dog to be harmed and will not even fess up! Terrible place to put an animal.

49- It could have been the dogs fault though. If I put my puppy in a kennel he claws at the door. He has gotten his paw caught once and it ripped off his nail. I felt so bad for him. He has only been in the kennel 2 times since then because I was using ant poison and I didn't want him getting into it. Either way, the place should have been watching the dog. If they were it could have been prevented. If it wasn't for the fact that I was with my puppy he could've have lost a toe as well when his paw got caught.

It could have been the dogs fault. But then the kennel should have given the animal all the necessary medical attention and called the owner immediately, or explained as soon as they returned, Accidents do happen. I have to agree with #103, I myself have two Malteses that are show quality, though one has recently be retired. My other dog is a Samoyed, that after being burned in the face during a house fire can no longer show, and was dumped in a shelter. If any of my animals went through something like that i would be heart broken, and at the very least i would expect the kennel to explain themselves and apologize.

I feel the same way. My dog is my baby and if someone allows her to get hurt in their care I would expect them to tell me what happened and pay for it. I think the kennel/doghouse should be shut down.

I'm curious, why didn't you continue taking care of the Samoyed after the fire instead of bringing him to the shelter?
lexa1love 16
I adopted my sammi from a shelter AFTER he was burned and dumped.

They thought you wouldn't notice!

They didn't do a very good job at clipping the nails. Too short!

Poor pooch...hopefully he is not in any pain. The boarding house caretakers are dumb asses
terrykayez 6
That's such an understatement... This fml ENRAGES me that those arrogant asshole would allow something like that to happen and then ignore his questions. Excuse me for my language but what the **** kind of boarding house is that. They should get their licenses revoked.

Agreed with 70. The bastards don't deserve to live.

I would like to understand how this was his fault

Lack of research. It's unlikely this is the first time that kennel has mistreated an animal. Should have used google to look for reviews.
