We often overlook the most vulnerable when the economy takes a downturn. This year’s foreclosure woes are bring hardships again to those how are unable to take care of themselves. According to a staff writer at the Daily Local, pets are “feeling economy’s pinch”

Tammy, an 11-year-old toy poodle and a rescue at the Chester County SPCA, will need $500 to $600 for dental bills.

A victim of a foreclosed home, Tammy is part of a growing trend of animals being taken to the kennel. (LINK)

If there is a victim, then there must be a purpatrator. Those greedy lenders care nothing for the helpless dogs of the world. They only care about money. Now, poor Tammy is going to have bad teeth.

Why isn’t Tammy a victim of irresponsible pet owners. My guess is that if you have no problem borrowing money that you can’t pay back, then irresponsibly taking on a pet is not much of a stretch.
