My response to the thread was No. not at all, I let them be dogs but that needs to be qualified. I do pet and spoil them and protect them when they need to be protected. However, I DO allow them to be dogs -- they get to do fun stuff like roll in horse poop, and go to the barn and chase the barn kitties....
But on the other hand, I am obsessive about making sure that they eat enough, and are protected from things that will harm them..... |
