You Want Me OFF The Couch?

Our dog lives well.  She's the one my husband pointed to the other night as "Exhibit A" when our daughter was discussing the problematic aspect of volunteering at the APL: her inability to come home without an animal.  (The cat hiding in a closet somewhere is Exhibit "B.")   Our little dog had been treated badly in her previous life, but she adapted rather quickly to the comforts of her new home.

Not so for all dogs. Many know only abuse, starvation, and pain.   Yesterday,  Jersey Girl posted a link to a website on "The Pit Bull Problem."    It takes a few minutes to watch and you need a strong stomach, but it's well worth a look if you care anything about animals.

Thank you.  Yes, there are a few photographs that are difficult to see, but also alot of wonderful ones too.

Although hard to watch, the video was worth the time.  Our dogs in Mexico as well are spoiled pooches.  A friend here has three pitbulls roaming their ranch (open for campers, etc.) and they are wonderful pets.  Thanks for the reminder of our human frailties (or wickedness)

What a sad video.  Those poor dogs.

Ah!  I see that your dog (like mine) is a candidate for "most spoiled dog in the universe"!  Good for you!
