We have the greatest situation where we live. On our cul-de-sac (sp?), we only have one neighbor who has pets, and they are spoiled rotten!!! I babysit them on occasion and I can promise you that they are well loved Corgis. And as you drive through our neighborhood, you will always see people walking their dogs. There are very few fences due to restrictions and people for the most part are older and retired and those dogs are treated like royalty! It is certainly a welcome relief for me to see that sort of treatment when I know it can and is so much worse in other places.
