You know I really really dont understand how those people can walk out there and just not see what is happening. How they can breed these poor dogs and keep them caged and neglect them and barely give them any care at all and just go back into their houses and eat food and drink and take a bath and climb into a soft bed at night without a thought of these dogs. I seriously wonder what kind of *human* is capable of such things. What kind of childhood did they have? How do they treat their own children?
I have a puppy mill rescue. An older girl probably around 10 or 11...Only has 2 teeth left now. I have had her since June. I still cant get her housebroken. She had no idea of what being petted or loved was. I have witnessed her drink water from her bowl only twice. Of course she drinks, but wont allow you to see her do it? I still have to feed her around the corner from the kitchen where no one can see her while she eats. Any loud noise will cause her to jump and run. She trusts no one but me and only my husband a little. She now absolutely ADORES me. She loves me..She trusts me..The housebreaking is a PAIN and frustrating but just to see her face when I come home or to watch her actually RUN in the grass is worth everything else. I would choose her all over again given the chance. It is a very rewarding experience. Challenging..but rewarding nonetheless. |
