Sometimes we have to ask ourselves is what we really love is the animal (which would be a selfless love where you want what's best for the pet, even if that isn't you and your home) or if we what we love is the emotions we get from having the pet around (where you want the animal with you no matter what and it's about yourself, not the pet). If you truly love the animal, you're happy if they're with someone who can provide them with top notch care as well as love, even if you personally do not like the person, or the person is not nice to you. |
This is getting almost funny that I have to keep explaining WHAT I MEAN every 2 seconds on here!!!! I did NOT even insinuate that I was mad. I simply said I was sent hurling out of my house by the look and smell of it. MEANING: I have a weak stomach and I can't stand the smell or looks of runny crap! Didn't say she MEANT to gross me out, just said it grossed me out. 2: Since when is coprophagia a symptom of a disease? Every wild animal has eat their own poop!!!! They're animals, they do those things!!! Could they get ill if they eat the poop of a diseased or sick animal???? Heck yeah! But she ate hers and my other 2 dogs poop. They aren't sick and diseased and believe it or not, she was fine other than having a UTI infection. Not due to that. She was to the vet and she HAD been seen! I never said she did this all the time. She went thru spells where she did it on occasions and other times she would do it for days, but then she'd stop. And as for your comment that dogs that eat poop isn't normal, you don't know a whole lot! Check your facts before you give false information! It's very common!
