You are exactly right. You'll often find misinformation though, especially
on e-mail forums. It's easier to get people riled with misinformation,
half-truths, hysteria and spin, don't 'ya know? (Most days I think I do a
good
job ignoring it.)
Here's the problem with all that "crying wolf"; when something does come
down the pike (like the CA legislation) that should get me riled, I'm numb.
I'm so confused...I might be Animal Rights "light", or is there such a thing
as Animal Welfare "heavy"? I HATE the thought of keeping more dogs that can
be wonderfully and responsibly cared for, part of a family (NOT penned 23
hours per day!), I DO believe in respecting zoning laws, NOT trying to see
what
you can get away with in total disregard of other property owners, I HATE to
see bitches bred and bred and bred and bred, it DISGUSTS me that puppies can
be let go in some states before 8 weeks...and so on.
