One user wrote, 'These dogs are innocent. They deserve to live too just like you. I was never harmed by any of the strays, though sometimes all they need is just some leftover food and a place to stay. But you had to take it away.'
'These dogs are innocent. They deserve to live too just like you. I was never harmed I can't wait for karma to come to you all.

What you do today will come back to you orelse in your next generation. Just wait,' wrote a furious another.
