You are so welcome

I really do care and love animals very much and want to try to help educate as many people as possible. What I found interesting was the people assume that a matted, scared and frightened dog has been abused. I knew that people assumed them to be abused but it is now empowered to know this is called xenophobic temperament. My Bogey would fall into this category since he is very excitable, pants, can act fearful when out. When all of mine got out of the yard last month he could have easily been mistaken for a dog that was abused and not love. But everyone here knows how much I love all of my pupster. I would have been devastated to have thought someone would keep or rehome him because of his personality.
