I have to ask? Do you volunteer for a shelter, rescue or with animals in need? When was the last time you visited a shelter to see or help with all of the dogs, cats and other animals housed there? Have you ever picked up a dog that was so sick you didn't know if he would make it through the night? Do you own a rescue or volunteer to be a foster home? What action or responsibility are you personally taking to make a difference in the treatment of animals?

I posted the original letter to try to enlighten YT member of how a shelter worker feels. Even if just one person now understand the magnitude of breeding their PET my point has been made. If it has offended you then so be it there is nothing more that can be said to change your opinion.
My opinion IS about the article and how the situation was approached by the author. Lets not get personal!! Don't think for a second, that I have a less-than-compassionate disposition about neglected animals. I said nothing of the sort.

Her message about all BYBers was inappropiate.
