Cisco's Mom,

I'm sorry for Dapper too. It is a very sad situation. Even at it's
best, Shelter life (long term ) for a dog or cat must be hell on
earth. Being confined without enough interaction with people
one on one, or even normal dog like interaction with other dogs
outside his cage can have terrible consequences for the animal.
The stress of living in such an un-natural enviroment can drive
them "over the edge". If more foster homes could be found,
it would really help a lot more dogs stay in adoptable condition
mentally. It would be really hard for me accept this sad fact
of having a dog pts after having developed a relationship with
the animal. I hope you are able to focus more on all the good
things you can do for these little ones. Bless you for helping and
for caring. Hugs from Liz & Smokey.
