People do all kinds of silly things with pets. Why not?
And, of course, the poor parent who had to take poochie out back and put her down is always glad to be reminded of how dear the bitch was to the little kiddies. (And to have their statements to the kiddies that they'd taken pooch "to the farm" contradicted).
