They need to ban all dog breeding, IMHO. The homeless animals all need homes, but the breeders are interested only in money and fashion...sickening, really. I love my dogs, and as a matter of fact, I woke up today to my one little guy sleeping on the floor again. He is the best dog I have ever had and yes, I know they run on instinct alone but it does not matter to me. He has brought me much joy and happiness and life in my home that can be very lonely. He has cancer and, I would never put a dog through that treatment, even if I DID have money to burn.
He (my one dog) Adam is his name - has been starting to show signs of going down and it is killing me right now. But I would have to thank God for taking him as I always prayed he would go before me, he's my velcro dog and I love that little fur ball so much, I am now praying that he is not suffering before my eyes as, I can only tell what I see...I've been up since 7 and, he has not gotten up except for once to come into the kitchen...and when I saw how he was struggling to walk, I knew it was close so, I cancelled my plans today. I know he is not human, and as much as I love him, I'd never raise him up in my heart as another being made in Gods image. All I can say is that it's going to be a tough day.
God Bless
