Jesus Christ. At first, I thought this was some uber-serial killer out in the West Virginia woods. As it turns out, some pet cremation service has been dumping carcasses (a la Noble, Georgia) instead of burning them.
Whew.
Damn! They’ve found my Alien Archeologist Confusion site! My plans are ruined!
I read that as “poets” instead of “pets”, and so expected quite a different kind of thread.
Last couple of times this happened, it was human corpses. You don’t have to be creepy and fraudulent to work here, but it helps!
Suppose Family Pet Cremations hired PETA people?
This is maybe 10 years ago. Dogs where disapearing from rural farms, I know people that lost dogs at the time. A woody area about a block from my home on the other side of a hill, was found to have many dog remains. Etheir teens or imagrants where doing some sacrifices. The dogs stopped disapearing after the find.
A bit later I found two dead dog bodies, that someone had beat nasty before shooting them dead. The small dog was left on it’s stuffed bed, and a few doggy items thrown on the larger. They removed all tags, but left the collars. I filmed the dogs and the area and stowed away the tape incase this happened again. They had been dumped in the public hunting woods in spring. I’m thinking it was a pissed off guy, that wanted the family dogs dead.
You are/were not alone! It took two rereadings to see it was “pets.”
I first thought Westminster Abbey had gone into overflow.
Sorry. Carry on.
Yep - me too on the poets.
Maybe somebody could start a separate thread on dead poets so that we have a 50% chance of getting the thread we were expecting?
There are trees in those woods. Those woods have no bark.
Yeah, I saw that movie too.
sounds his barbaric Yawp
Back to the river! Back to the forest!
In my area, dogs dissapear all the time, stolen by dog-fighting rings. They usually steal the bigger types of dogs, but occasionally, they steal little dogs, apparently for the amusement factor of seeing a chihuahua up against a dane.
Every now and then, they’ll find a dump pile around here. It’s so common, it doesn’t even make the papers.
Trust me, when I put my dogs out in the yard, I watch them like a hawk. The thieves are so bold, they will steal them from enclosed porches and kennels. (I know some people who leave their dogs in outside kennels during the day who secure the doors with padlocks.)
First puppies used as drug mules.
Now this.
I’m starting my own website called: Todays Bummer.com
Maybe it really was raining cats and dogs.
Which one- Dead Pets Society or Stephen King’s Poet Semetary?
Good One.
Not a problem, just bring them back to life!
They’re available on ebay at the moment.
