That is sooooooo sad. I really wish I could help dogs like that.. I want to get a shelter dog, but I get a huge "no way. i don't want to talk about it." from both parents.

I've always been obsessed with dogs ever since I was little.. I begged and begged my dad until he broke down when I was in 6th grade. I made cakes asking him in frosting, post it notes everywhere, etc.. "can we get a dog" was said about 50 times a day. When I finally got Brookie, it was the happiest day of my life.. to have my own dog finally.

That's my story, not too interesting, but I can't live without a dog from now on. They mean the world to me, as do everybody elses. Once you get "into dogs," it's impossible to get out.
