I agree! It amazes me when I watch Animal Planet and I see Animal Cops New York...and how they do so much to rehab "problem" dogs to get them adoptable and then if you watch Animal Cops Detriot they do nothing to rehab them. If a dog's slightly food guarding they put it to sleep. Thank God they didn't see or realize this at the shelter Barley came from as he stands over his food and runs to it if one gets too close, but who wouldn't if they were starved? And to think that action could have gotten him killed is so saddening. we have become such a selfish nation. Please don't give up. We can make a difference! It'll be one dog at a time, but if it wasn't for people adopting and trying to make a change dogs like Barley wouldn't be here right now. I'm so upset over poor Lela's life! I hope and pray she's running in beautiful green fields and playing with all her doggy friends in heaven. ((((((Hugs)))))))
