lovely post! I totally share your opinion about animal abuse. Here in Austria it's forbidden to abuse dogs and cat, but nobody gives a damn about all the other animals.. cows, pigs, chickens are treated like waste... so sad!
here's a picture of one of my "children" :D
good night friend, what good to get people who love animals, of course not only dogs and cats are also the other animals, I think that people who harm animals are people of bad feelings and do not want anyone. .... your dog is very nice, I hope you liked mine they are a tenderness I love them.
