This should not be a passion-fueled discussion. When it comes to animal accidents, there is no revenge. If the dog had to be killed to reattatch the digit, then yeah, do what you have to do. If the dog was a danger to other people, then yeah... you do what you have to do.
But if it was an accident, an the dog didnt swallow the finger, and it's not an aggressive dog, and you kill the dog because it pissed you off... no, that's wrong.
People who deal with reptiles often say, dont blame the Snake. Never blame the Snake. You have no one to blame but yourself for your own actions that lead to injuries inflicted by animals.
Like I said, I guess I agree with retrieving the digit in this situation. But that's all.
Very well said.
