Feel kind of bad after i did this but i think the guy deserves it.. just venting a little i guess.

I was born here but my parents moved to St.Vincent (caribbean) when i was 3 and lived there till i was 15 then we came back permanently. Whilst there i had a dog from age 11 to when we left, gave him to family friends. When he was 2yrs old someone apparently took a disliking to him and shot him in the back with a rifle at some distance, the tough sob crawled home and collapsed outside.. the vet said he'd never seen something like that, the bullet luckily missed vital organs and his spine, just. Took a few weeks and a lot of nursing but he was as good as new. Fast foward another 15 yrs, i know my boy is dead but somehow he came up in convo with a friend, he mentioned he knew who did it and they only did it for fun as they disliked my dad, the dog was not troubling anyone. Apparently my parents knew as well but never told me for fear i'd do something stupid.

Heard from the friend that the guy is now about 67 and bedridden, wheelchair bound and somedays not quite there. I was angry though, so angry i told another mate from there to pass on my regards and a little message "guess unlike my dog, you're never gonna get up again, die slowly"
:(

Feel bad but ffs he shot my dog. Wish i hadn't done it but feel conflicted about the whole thing.. thoughts?
 
I'd have said or done a lot worse.
Also, how can you call him a friend if he didn't tell you sooner?

There was a 7 year gap before we met again from when i left, he'd only found out a few years after i left and assumed i knew, a few people have confirmed that the guy boasted about it etc.. and my parents knew as well. Few reasons they didn't tell me i guess was due to the fellow being 'high up' in status and had a few dealings with politics and access to guns etc.. so if i went off on one after him he could've shot me and gotten away with it, remember i was only 13 or so and would've gone mental and possibly done something daft. I know 17 years is a long time but it was new news to me and i guess the old emotion and rage came rushing back. I know my other mate will tell him, i've sent him a message not to.
 
Take your dog to his grave and let him **** on it, and while he's at it do one yourself. Screw him let him live in death as he lived in life..

Then go and get yourself and drink and move on

Dog must've died many years ago and the grave will be roughly 2500-3000 miles away i believe, kind of tough to do :)
