100 Sled Dogs in Whistler Killed Courtesy of Outdoor Adventures Whistler

Not really a general topic, but one that needs seen and if you live in Whistler go by say hello and help them sell their sleds...we don't need more idiots connect to sledding.

"the company blames the employee"


Really... you tell a guy to kill 100 dogs... and it's HIS fault.

No employee can be that loyal to his employer. He is at much fault as his boss. He could have suggested other options , or contacted authorities. Neither have much value for life I guess. There is definitely more to the story I bet. Sick.

I`m not a fan of the news outlets but if some of what they are reporting is true it is pretty sad. It seems this all came to be because he filed for compo for having post-traumatic stress because of what he did. How he did it is what is the troubling part.

He had to recall exactly what happened last April 21 and 23 to be able to qualify for workers comp. Some of them documented stories are coming to light. Slicing dogs throats, shooting them with a hunting rifle in the head but not killing them and them trying to run off . It all sounds pretty gruesome and sad.

Outdoor Adventures Whistler is not denying any of it either from the few things I have read.

Like I said I take any news story with a grain of salt so even if half of what is being released is true it is still faakked up.

Heard about that on the news this morning....that's some messed up stuff. I can't believe that they wouldn't sell or give away the dogs before resorting to that??

I know the econonomy is chitty right now but if that's what I had to do to keep my job....I'm out. I'm sure like most peeps on here dogs are another member of the family.

I bet this would be messing with this head though, it's messing with mine just thinking about it, thats just awful
