My very first dog was named Sparky. We had him from the time I was about 8 months old until I was 8 or so. When I was about 7, Sparky started to wander. Specifically, he'd go from our place to a farm on the next country block and back.
One day, he never came home.
The next morning on the bus, the neighbour kids teased me (until I cried) that their dad had accidently run over Sparky. Being an odd duck, their dad put Sparky in the freezer. Rumour has it that the kids brought Sparky sandwiches to school for lunch.
I don't know if that is actually true, or if they just got off on teasing poor little me. Dad says that their dad was weird enough to have butchered Sparky when the dog got hit, but probably the kids didn't actually bring it to school.

That's right up there with the buried kittens.
