Taylor I believe that not to be true. I do so hope you find a way to believe that about yourself.

Already you contribute much to this board.

But the thrust or point of this article in my opinion is not to denigrate those owners who have had to surrender their dogs, but to focus on the dogs themselves. It is not to focus on the terrible conditons they found the dogs in, for does that really in the long term and for the right reasons attract would be adopters?

Adopting a dog is a long term commitment, and should not be done from pulling at the heart strings of would be owners. There is no easy answer in my opinion. And yes I am pretty emotional about this topic, as I have posted elsewhere.
