I don't know if animals should be afforded the same rights as people. I doubt that Fluffy will find it hard to cope with life with her n00d pics on the web.

I'd be shocked if a release was necessary.

Yeah it'd be an owner's rights thing. I was just curious. If it were my pets I'd probably be upset, you know? More because they didn't inform me than anything.

Actually, these animals are from my junior surgery lab and clinical rotations. Most are done using beagles that are later put down after surgery is done. Some are donated to the school for us to remove tumors and perform other surgeries that aren't normally done at school. The animals that are donated to us are usually sick and would later be put down. No, a release is not needed.

Oh, and one of the Drs. (who works for my former boss) I used to work with didn't mind me posting pics of his cat and Yorkie.

Yea, I figured that's what you meant. I personally wouldn't be upset because, again, who can tell the difference between Fluffy and Fido (besides me)?

Interesting. Would a release be necessary for animals that aren't about to be put down?

Yeah it's not entirely rational, but then who could tell a picture of my pancreas if it doesn't have my name on it either.

Also I believe CG has me on ignore, so I really didn't expect an answer from her anyway

Didn't think about it that way.

As far as the second part of your post -- That makes sense. I was wondering why the reply was directed at me

I'm sure you would (unless you ask and they don't care), just like anything that belongs to someone else.

I also don't use the ignore feature.
I mean, it's just that if it's someone I wouldn't get into a conversation with in real life, why would I chit chat with that person on here? I wouldn't and I don't, and I don't need to use "GC ignore feature" to do that.

Makes sense, to me.

btw: Guess what? I just put my plate of food back in the frige. I guess I'll be going to bed hungry, tonight.

Yep, but how much sense did it make for you to click on this thread while you were eating your dinner?

sanjiyan69, I posted this spay I did, because it's from an older dog who obviously had puppies. Spays from younger dogs don't look the same, and they're much easier to do, and the incision is going to be a lot smaller.
