Warning: Soap Box Post

I'm about to get on my soap box so if you want to skip this installment of whine, please do.

I hate, I mean really hate people who abuse animals. Recently, a couple of people were arrested for running a puppy mill in a neighboring county. It was the largest seizure of animals in Georgia history. The jerk-offs had 300 dogs all in various stages of neglect and abuse.

If you have continued to read this, you probably will want to pick up a pitchfork and torch to storm the criminals' trailer (like Frankenstein's castle). Please consider writing your legislators about strengthening or enforcing current animal protection laws. Or volunteer with an animal rescue group.

Okay, I'm done and I'm off the box but I'm still looking for a knitting pattern for a noose.

Omg...that is terrible. I sure hope they find homes for all those little ones. These people should be subjected to those same conditions for the rest of their sorry lives.

We have a lab mix that was a rescue...he's our big baby. A turtle that was also a rescue...he lost one of his back feet. A hamster that was going to be homeless now lives here too along with my chihuahua. Welcome to our zoo. If I could find a pug who needs a home then I'd be all set.

Hugs!

*if I find that noose...I'll call ya and we'll go for a "ride"*

How horrible! I don't understand what goes wrong in a persons mind to make them capable of such things.
