- 0:11Speaker 3: one oh sixty five.
- 0:12Speaker 4: Yeah, so we've actually got Michael on the line. Little backstory.
- 0:15Speaker 4: Michael's been living out of home, but his parents have
- 0:18Speaker 4: gone away.
- 0:19Speaker 5: They've taken themselves to Fiji for a holiday.
- 0:21Speaker 4: Ask Michael, hey, can you pop over look after our dog,
- 0:24Speaker 4: Marnie family dog.
- 0:26Speaker 5: And Marnie has.
- 0:28Speaker 4: Unfortunately fallen ill whilst the parents are away, and so
- 0:32Speaker 4: Michael's had to take Money to the vet and make
- 0:35Speaker 4: a decision. Now I don't know, I don't know if
- 0:38Speaker 4: you made the right one. But we've got Michael on
- 0:40Speaker 4: the line. He can tell the list is what he
- 0:43Speaker 4: chose to do.
- 0:44Speaker 6: Michael, what was wrong with the dog?
- 0:47Speaker 1: Oh guys, hey, Michael, listen.
- 0:53Speaker 7: It was on Friday, and every been going okay, like
- 0:56Speaker 7: the dog's Obviously, Money's really old and been with us
- 1:00Speaker 7: for a very long time. And I had a few
- 1:02Speaker 7: health issues here and there, and then I just happened
- 1:04Speaker 7: to I was I was working on Friday and I
- 1:07Speaker 7: found her collapsed on the ground on Friday, and she
- 1:12Speaker 7: obviously had been like sick, and she was responding and
- 1:15Speaker 7: stuff that I had to. I just took her to
- 1:17Speaker 7: the vet and I just didn't quite know what to do. Yeah,
- 1:20Speaker 7: so I wandered up to go to the vet, and yeah,
- 1:24Speaker 7: I just I just found it like that.
- 1:26Speaker 1: It was it was really.
- 1:26Speaker 8: Frightening, right, So what did the vet do?
- 1:30Speaker 7: So essentially they they looked at her.
- 1:35Speaker 1: They obviously it's we've been to the vet a few.
- 1:38Speaker 7: Times, they know many by now. They they sort of
- 1:42Speaker 7: said like, I could spend you know, spend a grand
- 1:46Speaker 7: over a grant it's to us and tests to find
- 1:49Speaker 7: out what was wrong, or you know, given her age
- 1:52Speaker 7: and the problem she's been having, and how old exactly is.
- 1:58Speaker 1: This still twelve? It's been a long, long long time.
- 2:03Speaker 6: You still got a good few years it's left, it's
- 2:06Speaker 6: not braid.
- 2:07Speaker 5: I guess what did to do?
- 2:08Speaker 7: Yeah, so they offered I could either give her all
- 2:12Speaker 7: these tests, spend a thousand dollars or so on tests,
- 2:15Speaker 7: or I could put it down then and there for
- 2:18Speaker 7: around three hundred dollars.
- 2:22Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:23Speaker 4: You had to obviously make a decision on the spot, right.
- 2:27Speaker 1: Yeah, So I tried to call my parents.
- 2:30Speaker 4: I was going to ask that I was going to say,
- 2:32Speaker 4: try and call your parents.
- 2:34Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 2:34Speaker 1: I tried to call my parents. They didn't answer. I
- 2:39Speaker 1: felt really put on the spot.
- 2:41Speaker 7: Ye, and I didn't really have a lot of money
- 2:44Speaker 7: on me, and I really kind of freaked out, so
- 2:46Speaker 7: I went for the option to put money down.
- 2:52Speaker 4: That's so hard because Michael, that's your family dog as well.
- 2:55Speaker 4: I'm assuming that you've grown up with money as well,
- 2:58Speaker 4: so that would have been really really a tough decision
- 3:01Speaker 4: for you to make. But I don't actually have a dog,
- 3:04Speaker 4: but my girlfriends who have pets like everything, so like
- 3:09Speaker 4: they would be so beyond distraught, Like I couldn't.
- 3:12Speaker 8: I could never did the wrong thing. You are you
- 3:16Speaker 8: are going to hell. I was away in Balley.
- 3:18Speaker 3: My parents took care of my cat and she did
- 3:21Speaker 3: get sick, and I know they felt really bad.
- 3:23Speaker 8: Yeah, but they put it down.
- 3:24Speaker 5: Oh this actually done this to you.
- 3:26Speaker 3: And called me and told me that they'd put it
- 3:29Speaker 3: down while you were there sipping cocktail holiday. But I'm sorry,
- 3:35Speaker 3: this is I know you don't have much money or whatever.
- 3:38Speaker 8: Surely the vet could wait.
- 3:39Speaker 3: I mean, if she was in full distress, we need
- 3:42Speaker 3: to put it down for her own good.
- 3:44Speaker 8: But you did have an option, Michael.
- 3:46Speaker 5: It sounds like money. He said he found her collapse.
- 3:49Speaker 4: Yeah, so it sounds like she's probably really struggling and
- 3:52Speaker 4: she probably was in a bit of pain.
- 3:54Speaker 3: But could they could they have kept it going at
- 3:56Speaker 3: least until you spoke to your parents.
- 3:59Speaker 7: They you know what, I just I don't even remember.
- 4:03Speaker 7: I just panicked. I just made a snap decision.
- 4:06Speaker 1: I really.
- 4:07Speaker 7: But that's kind of why I'm calling now, because I
- 4:09Speaker 7: don't know whether I've done the right thing. And I
- 4:11Speaker 7: guess the other the other thing that's kind of weighing
- 4:13Speaker 7: on me right now is that I my parents.
- 4:16Speaker 8: Haven't they yet?
- 4:19Speaker 5: Did this happen like yesterday?
- 4:20Speaker 2: No?
- 4:22Speaker 7: I haven't on Friday, And you know, we've talked, we've
- 4:24Speaker 7: talked about text, but I haven't. I haven't because I
- 4:27Speaker 7: don't want to tell them of a text.
- 4:28Speaker 1: It's really new. I haven't said anything.
- 4:30Speaker 8: I like, son, I'm so upset.
- 4:33Speaker 3: I know, And now you've done it. I mean, that's
- 4:36Speaker 3: a different thing. Do you tell your parents? Thirteen one
- 4:40Speaker 3: oh five?
- 4:41Speaker 8: I can't not tell them, but until.
- 4:43Speaker 3: They get back thirteen one six five is Michael going
- 4:46Speaker 3: to hell?
- 4:47Speaker 8: Give us a call?
- 4:48Speaker 6: So it's you because it's kind of his dog if
- 4:52Speaker 6: it's a family dog, you know.
- 4:54Speaker 8: I think you did the wrong thing.
- 4:56Speaker 4: It would have been so I feel I do feel
- 4:58Speaker 4: for Michael.
- 4:58Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 5:00Speaker 8: I mean, is he going to hell?
- 5:02Speaker 4: I don't think he's going to help you feel like
- 5:05Speaker 4: he put the dog down and went out on the beers.
- 5:07Speaker 5: Now its like he's very conflicted. I think he did
- 5:10Speaker 5: the right thing.
- 5:10Speaker 4: I made the right choice if the dog was really
- 5:12Speaker 4: old and sick at the point of time.
- 5:14Speaker 5: But the wrong thing was he should have waited to
- 5:16Speaker 5: ask for them. I think he shouldn't have made that
- 5:18Speaker 5: decision on his own.
- 5:19Speaker 8: And he could have waited.
- 5:20Speaker 3: I think, Well, we're going to hear from Uka phone
- 5:22Speaker 3: in thirteen one oh six'. Five Is michael going to
- 5:25Speaker 3: hell for putting down the family?
