No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

That largely depends on whether the poisoning was deliberate, and whether the dog survived.
I've only recently learned that onions and garlic are toxic to dogs and can and will cause seizures and even death. Not like anyone goes out of their way to feed onions or garlic to their dogs, but humans commonly add those things to our own food for extra flavor, which is partly why they say people shouldn't feed their dog table scraps.
So if it wasn't intentional, I'd be inclined to forgive them. But if it was intentional such as antifreeze or chocolate poisoning, I'd never forgive them, and I'd call the cops and report animal cruelty.

Edit: Spelling, plus added chocolate.
Didn't survive. Radiator coolant and dog feces. Veterinarian that put him down told me.
yeah why tell the people that the person works for ?
anyways thank you all for the answers.
Are you saying they put radiator coolant in dog feces and got the dog to eat the feces?
Radiator fluid tastes sweet to dogs, they’ll drink it happily if it’s provided. It’s one of those things that assholes who kill dogs tend to know.
Same for cats.
It’s a horrible way to kill an animal, and it’s hard to imagine the pooch having access to radiator fluid accidentally.
Coolant leaks kill a lot of pets and strays. It sounds like OP's story was intentional, but it does happen by accident.
They do.
But coolant leaks typically aren’t happening the same time some one is dog sitting or whatever.
If they lived together, I suspect it wouldn’t be so hard to believe it was an accident; but randomly having a radiator leak the same time your dog sitting? Or the dog is visiting?
I had a neighbor who worked on cars in his driveway. Several neighborhood cats died before people realized what was going on. This was back in the 90s, though, and I don't see so many outdoor cats nowadays.
Let’s just be honest here and recognize that wasn’t an accident. He may not have intended to harm animals; but he was intentionally releasing toxic substances into the environment.
(Illegally, I might add.)
It’s one thing if you have a burst radiator hose or something where you can’t easily clean it.
It’s something else if it’s a regular occurrence.
