@eyeslasho @JamesSurowiecki It always amazes me how quickly people who eat meat become animal advocates when it comes to 'cute' animals. Most farm dogs are 'abused' by modern standards- limited medical attention, living outdoors, limited grooming. We've become so divorced from what farm/ rural life is.
