Thumbs down woman mails puppy

I personally enjoy the comment "They don't have a display of what should be shipped and should not be shipped"

Wow.

I mean, it's not like it's a real dog...but it is a living thing. Maybe they should try putting this woman in a box and shipping her from Minneapolis to Atlanta, over a period of 3 days. No signs at the post office that say you can't do that, either.

Its amazing that dog survived to get to the post office. What a dummy. She likely tried to stuff the poor puppy into her usb port and e-mail it first.

My first thought was this was a joke to be honest. I can not believe that she did this and thought it was ok. She said IN COURT"There wasn't a sign telling me I couldn't send a LIVE puppy" and then lied about what was in the box and said it was a toy robot. Give me a break.

Don't overlook the fact that this woman procreated... I hope for the son's sake(who was supposed to be getting the puppy as a surprise) that he was adopted out to a family that isn't this STUPID. I bet this womans parents are very proud haha.

I am still in awe about how incredibly stupid people can be

All this could have been prevented if she had just faxed the dog instead of using USPS>

You would think natural selection would be getting these people but that doesn't seem to be happening. Kinda scary.

"I wanted to suprise him really really good when he opened the box."

Yes, he would have been surprised. Probably even shocked. Most definately it would have been a big thing for him - when he opened the box and found a dead dog.

Excuse me, but it would have been far more humane to send the dog via Email, as an 'attachment' ... it's quick and painless
