Well said.Nothing better than a big sweetheart dog. It is easy to look at a dog that is big and claim it is "Vicious." But is simply is not true. Puppies, like baby people are not born "vicious." They all form based external circumstances with the exception of a very small percentage of mental problems. Maybe, every once in a while a dog may be a mental issue.
But, if someone put me outside in the snow and ice without food on a chain and beat me, then they better not close their eyes around me because I would be a "Mental Issue" and their axxss would be grass. ha.
In thinking of animals and size, I was talking to someone who rode horses all her life. (I don't know much about horses). I mentioned - most horses are really big. It is amazing they let anyone ride them. She told me "Oh no, because of the size and shape of their eyes, they see everything magnified about 8 times. They see us as very big. Interesting.
This is a post which is too good for a "like" button.
I would like to take it one step further and say that anybody who takes a pet out and dumps it deserves to be taken out on a less desirable street in one of the big cities and "dumped" to survive there on their own.
