Often the reason given is not the real reason - all too often it comes down to behavior that could've been predicted and could be managed. A better book for many people would be one of my dog or cat care and training books so there would be no need for rescue! Hopefully fiction also gets some of that across.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07535695542961577318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5999752843311959295.post-56065162755360047082012-09-27T08:56:54.587-05:002012-09-27T08:56:54.587-05:00I'm not really sure what is happening here, bu...I'm not really sure what is happening here, but as a "mommy" to a rescued Old English Sheepdog, I am excited about the fact that you wrote a book about how to rescue dogs. I wish I could have had that book before. Dogs are being put to sleep at an alarming rate as owners are forced to surrender them as their economic conditions worsen, or because of some other reason, including the too frequent one of buying a dog without researching it properly or (worse) considering a pet an expendable item rather than a part of the family. Thanks for writing that book, Sheila!Diane Schultzhttp://www.luvs2zumba.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5999752843311959295.post-72759974263426876002012-09-26T22:22:58.387-05:002012-09-26T22:22:58.387-05:00Judy, Aussie rescue sometimes gets older guys that...Judy, Aussie rescue sometimes gets older guys that still need and give lots of love but don't need so much exercise. That' might be a possibility.<br /><br />Thelma, I hope my writing gives you a chance to share the pleasure of time with animals!<br /><br />Kaye, I thought my Labs had energy until I got an Aussie. Actually, they do, but it's channeled differently. Ah - I love them all!

Cheers to you for all you do for them. There may not be another Aussie in my future because they require more exercise than I can give a dog, but I will always adores them. judyalterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13767466505891813090noreply@blogger.com
