Innocents (children and dogs) who have done nothing to deserve such treatment. I donated over at Houndsgood and I hope someone rescues that sweet girl. I think if I were local I would go pick her up. But how many dogs can I bring home? At some point I get full too. It's just so sad. And defeating. My heart breaks – I can’t even express how sorrowful I feel when reading things like this.
