Any of you here have other pets?

I love dogs. My thing is:
I go to the pound once or twice a month with a pocket full of milk bones ( not supposed to do that ) I stop by to see mainly the older dogs. I feel because they are old their chances of being adopted are slim at best and are in essence on death row. These dogs at one time were someone's pal and are now abandoned to a death sentence. I stop by just to give them a little human visit. They and I enjoy it. It is sad, but I feel they deserve the human contact and a few kind loving words.
Then I go home and thank God for Mason and tell him how lucky he is.

Bob:

You and I are "way, way different".

I have been to local pound once to get a puppy dog for my Daddy who had Alz.

The puppy dog was mostly a border collie but he just did not work out with the sitters and my Daddy.

He, Bandit, has subsequently made a "first class cow dog"!

I gave the pound a healthy donation and do so annually but I am never, never going back! I just cannot emotionally deal with it!!

I don't guess that Mason is a "spoiled puppy dog" is he?

Hopefully he is able to go on your road trips with you.

Bob that is so awesome! God Bless you for that!!
When I turn 16 I'm going to be volunteering at the humane society. On a connecting plane flight to Colorado this August, I met the main guy from emergency vets and hugged him :P Haha so I can add him to the list of famous people I've hugged in random places [List includes Colin Powel]
Anywho, thats awesome Bob
