Interview at the Dog Pound

LES, and runny nose

I don't even have words for how reading this made me feel, I think most it made me ANGRY

We do this, not these poor babies, we do this. Sad, sad, sad. I could picture each dog as I read the story, I wanted to take them all home, show them what a HOME really is.

LES...major tears, runny nose and even sobs. That just killed me. I ripped my heart out. I feel so sad and depressed right now. Why why why do people have to be so stupid to do the things they do to these poor animals. All the want it love, a warm place to sleep, a full tummy and to play. That is not so much to ask. But time after time they are treats like garbage and worse. I gave a little smile when the rottie was picked as the rescue but then the sobs really started when the one choosen was Pete...always the pitbull. They get such a horrible deal in so many cases and for this reason I think maybe even more than any other they are first and foremost in my heart.

I shouldn't have read this now. That is such a sad story.

I'm actually going to the SPCA at lunch time to look at the kitties. I know I"m going to think of this story and I'm going to be a basket case. I hope I can make it through without shedding a tear.

But it's highly doubtful.

I agree.

Thank you for sharing this.

Oh, I"m crying right now, and I am trying to stop. That was so terribly sad, but so terribly true as well. I think this type of story should be put into things that people read daily, such as news paper articles and in dog magazines. Imagine what it might do to someone's heart if they read it, maybe more people would rescue dogs that need to know and feel what love really is.

Thanks so much for sharing this, it dug down so deep into my heart and hopefully others hearts, ever since I've joined PetTalk it has inspired me to one day adopt a dog when I can, and I can't wait for that day, to save a dogs life.

*sigh* until then, I hope there are other people out there who can save the poor dogs.

Your friend is a gifted writer, and I am sure that her article has helped to save some animals out there. It has me in tears and just makes me want to go and adopt every one of the dogs at our "Humane Society". Why do they call them that when what they do is anything but humane??

Very well said, Kalei. I agree with EVERYTHING you said in your post. I can't wait till the day when I walk out of an animal shelter with a new dog.
