Basically, she didn't like my dad (this is my mom's mom) and was convinced that he must be mistreating the dog. So one day, when she was babysitting me, the dog ran away and everybody fanned out to find it. I thought it was just gone, but I found out years later that she did in fact find it and decided to have it put down because, you know, she didn't like my dad.

I'm sorry to hear that. That's some major mental hoops to jump through to do something that's just plain sick.
