Injured Dog Rescued From Mountain; Owner Who Left It There Wants It Back

http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/headline...wants-it-back/

Long story short, some guy abandones his dog on Mt. Bierstadt at 13,500' after it is unable to walk, and just assumes that it dies. Mr. and Mrs Washburn are hiking the mountain and find the dog. Since she (the dog, not Mrs. Washburn) weighs over 100, they have now way to get the dog off the mountain. So they come back later with some friends and put Missy in a backpack and get her off the mountain and to a vet's office where she should make a full recovery. Now the mother effing douchbag f*ckstick that left her on the mountain wants the dog back.

Sure he can have the dog back...let's set up a meeting downtown. Tell him to come alone and when he gets there we can all beat the living shit out of him. Seriously...what kind of person thinks that is acceptable behavior for a human being?

No way that guy left her up there should get her back. No way, no way. Probably can't take care of himself, much less a dog.
Ergh! People are stupid and selfish!!!

Screw him, he abandoned the animal while it was injured. He obviously does not realize that pet ownership is a responsibility. With that responsibility comes the good and bad.
Scuzzbag.
Thankful I am not his kid!

screw that guy. id never leave my dog up there. shoot, if she couldn't walk id probably stay up there until i ran out of food trying to figure out a way to get her down. if all else failed id set her up some form of a shelter, RUN down the mountain, and get help anywhere i could. worst case id make some form of a sled. good lord, its sad dogs are so loyal and yet people abandon them so readily.

Dog should have never been up there in the first place. The poor thing already had torn up paws before he left it. This guy shouldn't get the dog back. Great story about the rescuers.

Won't happen, In colorado if you lose your pet and its not recovered in 7 days then whoever has said pet is the new lawful owners (thats how I got my lab).

What a douchebag, my dogs are members of my family NOTHING LESS!! Makes you wonder hwo the dog was treated before it was abandoned.

Anthony Ortolani is a total scumbag. Let's leave his sorry ass, beaten and wounded and without food or water, on top of a mountain for 8 days and see if anyone cares enough to rescue him.

Douchebag. F**k you...you want your dog back now.

Yes, return the dog. As soon as dog is in his possesion, arrest him to for abuse and cruelty. Confiscate dog and adopt out to good home. Any jury would convict him in a heartbeat.

I hear soon animals (dogs) will be given 5/6 a vote.
