Wow, Ashley, you still amaze me! I know it is hard when you don't control things like when your parents decided to breed Mini but the way you jumped in to save Kyra is just amazing. It must be hard after feeding her and working with her when she was so little to now watch your mom spoil her so badly. It ain't easy being a kid - grownup or not!

I have heard before I joined Pet Talk that females do make better dogs after having a litter. I have never wanted to deal with the delivery thing and finding the pups new homes so we have always spayed or neutered. I am glad your mother started volunteering at the shelter with you and has begun to understand to over population thing.

Again, thanks for sharing Kyra's story with us!
