Yeesh. I must have a heart of stone. I never caved or even attempted to cave EXCEPT when that one, lone, purebred female dobie landed herself at our shelter (it's basically the city pound). I don't know if everybody knows the story, but I tried to adopt her but somebody took her the day before. Sigh. And then I found Ivy

I don't know. I think you get desensitized to it all after awhile Or maybe I just have a heart of stone. Have fun!!!! I love volunteering because it gives me the chance to work with a wide variety of dogs w/ behavioral issues, and all that experience makes me a much better owner/trainer for Ivy.
