Re: Who Can Explain the Attitude Toward Dogs in the U.S. Sou
Question, is leaving a dog inside, with sufficient clean water, after being walked and fed, while at work for SEVERAL hours, ideal animal care? If not, what do people up north do with their pets when they're not at home? What if a dog "in the South" has been walked and fed, does have clean water, but is left outside during the day to run around instead of being cooped up in a house all day? What about that? I'm not saying the North is better or worse than the South. I'm just saying/asking.
Why is it that we can leave a dog at home alone for a while but not a baby? I think it's because a dog/animal is NOT THE SAME as a human!
ETA: I'm sure many don't see the small and big dogs stuck in apartments, homes with no yards, all day! How long are their walks to justify owning a dog in that environment? I don't think there's much pleasing anyone. Some animals are TRULY mistreated, but...Animal Cops exist EVERHWERE!
