They are the people who open the cages and set lab animals free, they are the people who are able to get the politicians to hear and act, everyday they tirelessly seek to help our animals, those we can see and those we pretend we don't see....I felt your post on first glance lumped all the rescuers and "zealots" together...since that is mainly what we see on YT.
I'm sorry if I offended you. |
Apology warmly accepted. I'm not offended by you personally at all
. I completely understand & respect your advocacy for the abandoned/mistreated/castoff dogs that have no voice. If you look back, you'll see my post that you then commented on was directed at Madpuppymills comments to Yorkiemom1.

Actually, that was exactly the attitude that I responded to...

The implication is that ANY breeder that breeds a puppy (& any person that buys rather than rescues) is somehow implicated in another dog being put to death. This attitude of rescue or you're a dog killer...is what gets me riled up....as you may have noticed
