Quite appalling this faux pas. But not surprising if you scan the history of various newspapers. Such blunders do happen when they have to. I can relate to this as I have worked in several newspapers and am guilty of some very embarrassing blunders. Thanks for sharing this.

that is just carelss work...
I hope they learn to take a little more care.
As to the story, it is heart breaking for all of them - including the dogs, how badly warped or tortured were their characters that two members of such an affectionate species would do something so horrible?

Sign of the times maybe
