A good book promoting humane treatment of animals is a good thing, so it's a letdown this isn't it.<br /><br />IA neighbor moved in six months ago with a sweet dog who cried all day when she went to work. Solution: get a rescue due. She did that, but he barks a lot somewhat because he was mistreated during his earlier life and because of his breed and fear of noise in the hallway.<br /><br />The poor dog was used only for mating in a puppy mill, was only taken out of a cage for that purpose and then put back in it for four years. He has bonded with his pet parent and even pushes the other dog out of the way for her attention -- even mine, if he deigns to let me put him. Usually, he barks at me even two days after I've pet him.<br /><br />These poor dogs get very messed up from being abused. Even a loving home can't overcome all of it. Puppy mills should be illegal in every state and so should animal abandonment and abuse.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-61217330711679327972014-07-17T12:23:52.998-07:002014-07-17T12:23:52.998-07:00Every book we read can't be an "A+"-...Every book we read can't be an "A+"-- and your description of a book not being 'there" is perfect!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774383554326288663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-53279781051809464752014-07-17T04:44:40.389-07:002014-07-17T04:44:40.389-07:00Cathy - I've had that happen too, where a book...Cathy - I've had that happen too, where a book just simply isn't 'there' for me if I can put it that way.
