Can You Kill Your Own Dog?

I’m sneaking out to the airport (4:15AM here), on my way to Detroit for the day.  Played a bit more last night, ended up slightly after a rocky road of HORSE.  Almost got bucked off, so I need to be sure I can devote myself to play when I’m sitting down (not normal for me, what with multi-tasking and the like).

l to r:  The Little Guy, CC, Angel

So I ask is there a crime heinous enough that you can kill your own dog?  Excluding dangerous, physical damage to a person, I’m not sure if there is or not, but this would have to rank up there.  Sweetie has been on a chicken kick, as in baking a whole chicken then cutting it up. I came home from soccer practice with the Big Guy (in the rain), went up and showered as she was cutting the chicken.  Well, the cat (another story; this 14-year old cat has taken over our bathroom, with the litter box in our Jacuzzi tub and another under Sweetie’s vanity) had thrown up, and there were ants now chomping on said stuff.  I called Sweetie up to get rid of the ants, and as she went back downstairs I heard the commotion.

The Little Guy had opened the garage door, letting in Angel (the Gordon Setter).  She then of course chowed down on most of the chicken which had been graciously cut up for her.  Some was left, and after calming down a bit Sweetie went ahead and served it to us.  All-In pushed back several times on eating chicken which had been slobbered on by a dog, but end the end he relented.  No one else mentioned it, and I dutifully ate what was put in front of me.  As I leave for the airport, I don’t know if Angel will be here when I return tonight.  Can you kill your own dog for this?  If Sweetie does, do I have to bury the dog?  Any help appreciated.

Wish me luck on my sales call today, and gl to everyone on the felt.
