Hey Wylie's Mom- if you start eating the trash too, we're really going to get worried about you.
As I read these posts, an interesting though occurs to me that is the beauty of these dogs- they can be what we want them to be. If we want to think of them as emotional and compassionate creatures, they give us proof of that in ways we can't and don't have to explain to anyone. If we want to think of them as being governed by the laws as science and psychological understandings, well, hey, that's another great way we can connect to them. If we love them because of their inabilty to contemplate revenge, that just makes them even more beautiful an animal.
