Are they implying that smokers who own pets are abusive?If the animal will be fed, get vet care, live in a safe enviornment, and be loved, isn't that enough?
No coffe here(Yuk) but there is plenty of soda around, and I have had a few cans swiped!

But yes the point is, along as the dogs are being properly taken care of, what does it matter if the person smokes? My dogs are well taken care of, and I have neve had anyone say anything bad, because i smoke. Yeah I know I should quit, but that is beside the point. Smoking, has nothing to do with the amount of care my animals recieve. People are getting out of control. If they continue along this track, there will be no suitable homes for rescue dogs.
