Their little feet never touch the ground and they don't know what it is to run and play. Even if they are well taken care of in the crates, that is so sad.

I feel bad for any dog kept in a cage, even those big dogs that people put in kennels in their back yard. What is the purpose of having a dog if you aren't interacting with it and it spends it's life outside in a cage.

Sorry didn't mean to get off track here.
