Pet or Family Member?
Allow me to begin by saying I am not writing this to rile anyone up...or to start a "don't diss my dog war" I am writing it to educate and pose a valid question. You see I have long been someone who enjoys animals, but think that some people (including some of my own family members) go too far by treating them like humans. My mom does not care for pets in the home and just doesn't get it when others are so into their pets. My daughter is drawn … [Read more...]
