I have always owned dogs & treat them just like child. Donate to Aspca. Do not tolerate animal abuse from anyone I may know or not know. Im single & adopted my grandson whom I lost my Son in Army 3 months before he was born. Its just 2 of us in home. I have small 8lb dog who was my sons & he is very spoiled to me. He has his own blanky & sleeps on my bed with me. We have 1 rabbit in cage in grandsons room. I have very large fenced in yard lots of room for dogs to run & play. I don't like seeing any dog on a chain & left outside in rain or bad weather. Never met a dog that I feared
