A Facebook friend recently posted that she and her husband were planning to get a puppy. She explained that because of allergy issues they were limiting their search to Labradoodles, one of the only breeds that doesn’t make her ill.
That should have been fine, but no sooner had she posted than her left-wing “friends” began attacking her – the very idea of buying a dog when so many deserving animals were languishing in shelters, just waiting to be euthanized!
Now, she was probably the most liberal representative ever to sit in the Texas legislature, and should be perfectly capable of holding her own, but I couldn’t help feeling sorry for her. She even felt the need to point out her numerous awards from animal rights groups, but once the blood was in the water, it became a feeding frenzy.
I almost came to her defense. It would be easy enough to point out a few obvious facts that they were ignoring:
- No puppy chooses where it comes from.
- All dogs are potentially homeless.
- Where a dog comes from is a lot less important than where it ends up.
I almost came to her defense – but, it’s been too much fun to watch.
