Puppy Choking on Chicken Bone Drama?!
Judge Judy · Season 20 · Episode 174
A neighbor takes a sick puppy to the vet to save its life, then expects the owner to repay her for veterinary bills. I have been watching the show for some time. Sometimes the Judge makes a fool of herself but this is the first time I have been motivated to send a message. To compare a sick dog being taken to a veterinarian for $500 to a sick child being taken to a doctor is beyond comprehension. Dogs, which I have always owned and taken good care of, are pets and can be euthanized if a family can't afford bills. We do not compare them to children. I think it might be proper for Judge Judy to apologize for this shameful statement.
