I got caught up in my deja vu and forgot what I wanted to say!

About 15 years ago, 3 of my neighbors who had BIG dogs, 1 a 12 year old German Shepherd, 1 Black, Shepherd mix and 1 which was a large MUTT -all were told by their Insurance Companies they had to get rid of their dogs (guess who ended up with them???) They all had the same Insurance Company, I was appalled I work for local gov't so I did what I could, drove myself crazy, but to no avail. At the time we had an addition and a yard the size of a football field, so we took them in! It was a hoot, they were all older and we only had them a few years but we loved them just the same.

I could never understand how the owners could just "let it go" but they were good people and I remember how they cried but did what they had to do...but lest I forget....they were all poised to take them to the local pound when my hubby stepped in...

It just amazes me that these companies get away with this.
