I hope they have a full recovery. As for the rest I won't type what I'm thinking.

I don't quite understand what these dogs and people are doing but if they're showing up at riots, I don't think they have any business being there.

From the article it seems like they were leaving Joplin and got caught up in the riot.

@Say Nay, @Kachina624

I think you are confusing Joplin, Missouri with Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  There were no recent riots in Joplin.

[Say Nay]

@Marp You're right. Thanks. The recent rioting has been heavy on my mind and even though it's clear in the OP for some reason I read it as referring to Milwaukee. I blame it on the heat : (

This is so upsetting, those dogs  do such good work, but not sure in my mind if this is a good idea for owners to do this with them.

Showing up at riots? I do not think people should riot in the first place! I hope they the comfort dogs and there handlers have a full recovery and I can not type what I think of the people that did this to them.

I pray for total and speedy recoveries to all injured.  I also pray for real justice be done to the perp.

There was no riot in Joplin. It was just a crazy shooter.

The "Comfort dogs and their handlers" were on their way to St Louis for a meeting about their ministry with the "Comfort dogs".

These dogs are brought in to cope with terrible situations like the horrible tornado that struck Joplin.

This is a wonderful organization and has helped many many people.
