12 Year Old With Brain Cancer Had His Puppy Shot


Photo by the Globe and Mail


A twelve year old boy named Nick Rose from Quadra Island, BC who is suffering from brain cancer was out with his little four month old Jack Russell dog called Seymour helping his dad. Out of nowhere the dog ran down the driveway where two hunters were standing and one hunter shot and killed the little dog.

The poor little kid who went though all kind of treatments for his cancer stood there while his new best friend was killed. I hope these hunters get the book thrown at them for what they did. How do you try and give a little kid hope after something like this. Little Nick has just lost his new best friend.

I find it discusting that the father of this boy is taking atvantage of an accident. It is obvious that this man let his dog run wild and is trying to find some way to compensate his son for his lack of care. I have also seen the discusting facebook site that this father Nick Rose had on the interne. Which appears to have been cancelled due to the fact of it's illegal content. This man Nick Rose appears to have a dark side with all of his hate....
