Welcome To Pet Talk!! I'm sure you're going to love it here! I have a purebred Black Labrador Retriever, named Sadie May, and she is 5 years old. I do Agility and Obedience with her. Now back to the subject... I feel the same way you do when I see all these stray cats and dogs outside. I haven't really seen any in my neighborhood, though. It makes me sooo sad when I see all the strays. It also makes me really mad the way some people treat these poor helpless animals. That's a good idea.... put out food and water. But, I wouldn't if I lived where you lived! Again, Welcome to Pet Talk!
