You hit the nail on the head there...I get so angry about that. It is true that sometimes people are not able to keep their dogs, for a variety of good reasons...but there are so many good homes out there, if the owner would take a little time and make a little effort, they could find a loving home for the dog.
These dogs are living, breathing, compassionate and loving souls...I don't understand abuse of any type...not puppy mills, not neglect, not abandonment, not emotional abuse, not physical abuse. I simply can't relate to that mentality...and I am glad that I can't.
I wonder sometimes, what has happened to humanity that they can turn their backs on a loving creature...what is wrong with them (the humans)?
