You know, is kind of uncomfortable when people looking for options to make our dogs life’s more comfortable receive expressions about how they deserve better and even some more.
Fact is my Girl walks two hours a day, sometimes even under light rain,
99% of people I met everywhere walk their dogs twice a week if dog is lucky.
My Girl Gets socialized every weekend with people and Dogs,
Most people I know don’t even consider socialization as something necessary for dogs.
My Girl eats the best i can Afford, Blue Buffalo,
99% of people I know feed with anything on sale at Wall-mart.
My Girl goes to the vet every 6 months for checking and sooner if i notice something wrong,
99% of the people I know wait until any problem turns in something "of consideration"

And no, I don’t live in middle of the swamp, I live in the city and this is reality.

I used to Feel Guilty thinking my girl deserve better than all I can offer, until somebody show me how dogs around live, I wouldn’t say she lives better than dogs represented here at the forums, but certainly from many places I have been and for what I have seen, she is a Royal princess.

Yes I Do Work hard and as much as i can, so i can give my dog good things in life and yes, if she had end up with some of the amazing people like the super trainers with lots of time in their hands to care for the dog, I bet she would be the luckiest, but…
She doesn’t have any pedigree, she is not German lines or came from a very well known established blood line, her parents were not OFA and everything el se certified, or agility or anything…
What were her chances?

Is it really better for her end up forgotten in a backyard or chained to a tree or euthanized than the life I offer?

I don’t think so, so in a good manner I would recommend to people thinking they are examples of dog owners, and with the right of point fingers to others, to consider beyond the magic bubble where you live, that even with our limitations, there is a lot of people like us, working hard and still willing to take care of those wonderful creatures the best as we can even when sometimes we have to work red numbers at the end of the month but the dog never get less, I know is not the ideal that everybody want to see for dogs but think before you talk there are actually worst scenarios where dogs actually suffer pain and many are just around the corner where you live.

To all of you that nicely point the good and bad things in the Idea, thank you very much.
I highly appreciate your comments.

Thanks a lot
