  Thanks Kim.

   IMO, what a sad life for dogs to have to spend most of their days in kennels or cages.  I feel the same way about "outdoor dogs".  If a dog is going to be kept outside all the time, what's the point?  My definition of an outdoor dog is  "a big dog - a dog that likes to spend alot of time in the great outdoors; setters, labs, retrievers, etc.", but to 
live in a kennel outside????  Again, what's the point?  JMO...maybe I don't understand the whole reasoning behind it since (though I love dogs), I am definitely a little dog person.  Actually anymore, I am a Yorkie person.
