Also something I have thought about over the years. We have 3 acres here and our zoning allows us dogs, sheep, horses, etc,. Like Ginger, we have no resources to build the facilities or care for the number of dogs (food, vet costs, etc.) the property could accommodate. We do have a few rescues here & are always willing to help foster when needed. However, Ginger is more centrally located. We're on the "left" coast.
