animal cruelty

I do love my dogs & are amazed by them daily. I have never agreed with any kind of mistreatment of animals at all but now that I see how smart & caring they actually are. It makes the thought of some animals being mistreated unbearable. There are organizations & people that try to make a difference with the abuse of animals. I will post some links tomorrow. My husband donates to Rescue Inc out of NY. There is a big problem out there with the way that animals are treated. I guess the main things that people should do is to get their animals spayed or neutered & stop breeding for personal gain.
It does seem like people are taking in pets more than in the past maybe & many people treat their animals above & beyond normal. It seems that pets are allowed in more places & it is easier than ever now to take pets on vacation & all.
I would love to take in every animal out there that doesn't have a home but it's not allowed since I rent & money is an issue. lol If I ever won the lottery, I would definitely do something for many animals with the money. I just know it! Maybe I should start playing!!

sweeties

They are both still doing great and still as sweet as ever!

Bruce & Jett

It amazes me how faithful they are. Every morning when I wake up, there they are. They refuse to leave the room until I do. Wherever I go, they will sleep or play beside me, until I get up. Somehow they just know to wait outside of the bathroom door when I go in there, even if I am going to brush my teeth & don't shut the door. They are just so trusting & sweet. It makes me so mad when I hear about people doing mean things to dogs because they are so sweet that they will be nice to people even when the people aren't nice to them it seems like. I'm very good to my dogs because I love them & there is no reason to ever be mean. They try to do good and they usually do. When they do something that I don't think is right, then I blame myself for not teaching it to them yet. I don't blame them because what it boils down to is that they are still dogs... they are great. I think that if I didn't have the patience to be patient with them while they are learning, then I probably wouldn't deserve to have them. Luckily Bruce learns fast. Jett wasn't very fast & there were times when I felt frustrated with him but his good points just outweighed the fact that he was slow. He got sick at one point & I was terrified. I think that is when I really realized how much I cared for him even during the time that he didn't seem to do much right. I'm glad that it worked because now I don't have any problems with Jett, he seems to have caught on & maybe Bruce helped him learn some things, i'm not sure. What I do know is that I couldn't imagine them not being in the family because they really add to our happiness a lot.
