I am getting very tired of hearing people say "thats my dog" when they do not own the dog or pay the bills or raise or feed them. Hey handlers I hate to tell you this but its my dog. They live with me. I rush them to the vets in an emergency. I feed them I love them I enter them in shows. I provide for them in my Will. Someone who sees them once or twice a month for an hour or so does not own my dog. And never will! -- norma hansburg www.normahansburg.com ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2011.
