i had my choices criticized for so many years by my mother that i'm very sensitive to it here and IRL. it hurts me to see someone here post and open up and then someone comes barging in to be critical of their perception and/or feelings. we're all different, thus our choices and the reasons for them, are unique to us. if the greyhound had rolled in the cow *&^%, i could have said anything to him and he would have shrugged it off....it's like that IRL. it pays to step back and be kind in our responses because we don't know where our peers are coming from. thanks for your compliments on the post..it's really about us..not the dogs.
xoxoxox to all.
