Thank you,

Someone made a remark that all rescuers dislike breeders. That is so far from the truth!. Who I dislike is anyone who would harm an animal. I will not even discuss such nonsense with people carrying such thoughts. Tells me that perhaps that is the way that they think...why else would they even suggest such a generalization?
Sadly, there are breeders, rescuers and people not involved in either who do the wrong things day in and day out. I speak up to anyone who harms an animal and if it happens to be a rescuer, they get double the wrath....they should not call themselves rescuers if they are harming animals.
I do not discriminate in my dislike of people who harm animals.
And...yes, we will see what we can do to help him. We don't have any foster openings in LA where he is, but we will do our best to find someone for him.
If you are referring to the comment that I made on the other thread....... I did not say that all rescuers do not like breeders.

What I said was there are those who believe that no one should breed and everyone should rescue.

Big difference.

I respect and admire anyone who is involved with the rescue and the fostering of animals.
