I didn't mean technically "living" in a purse but to me... spending a few hours in a purse per day is close enough to "living" in one, lol. I just don't think it's fair for a dog! That's all I meant by that.

I understand how people buy them as accessories or don't understand it's a real living thing -- it's a terrible thing all around. Celebrities like Paris Hilton, etc, make dogs look like a fashionable item, then people realize they actually require exercise and hard work, and the poor dogs are the ones who suffer in the shelter.
