IF I HAD KNOWN MY POST WOULD EVENTUALLY BRING OUT A DOG ISSUE AND PIG LATIN I WOULDN'T HAVE POSTED IT.
And yet, oddly enough, it's all related...

ARE WE SO AFRAID OF OUR NATURE THAT WE BARK AND BITE OTHERS.
Perhaps we are SO self-aware that we know, from experience, to be on guard.

PHIL DID I UNDERSTAND YOU CORRECTLY. YOU PERFERR DOGS OVER YOUR OWN KIND.
As MoonSavvy so perceptively pointed out, I prefer cats.
Actually, I prefer Sugar-Glider squirrels, but they're hard to come by...

GUYS THIS IS ABOUT LOVE RESPECT AND CARING. NO MAN IS AN ISLAND, NO MAN STANDS ALONE, IF WE ARE 50, 20 OR 10 YEARS OLD WE NEED SOMEONE.
Why?
Why do we need them?
What happens if there IS no one?

IS IT EASIER TO FEEL AND BE CONCERN FOR A PERSON WHOSE PLAYING A ROLE ON TELEVISION? TO THE GENTLMAN OR LADY COOKING THE FOOD FOR SOMEONE'S BURIAL, THATS WHAT THIS IS ABOUT THANK YOU.
I don't know about catered funerals, but it often seems that the masses idolize TV and movie stars while the REAL role-models go unsung.

Wow. Well count me as someone that prefers to help animals over humans. Not that I won't help out another human being, but animals have just as much right to life and a good quality of life as a human. Others here will go out of their way to help an innocent child, well animals are just as innocent and helpless.
I remember an old charity drive asking everyone to give 5% of their time or money to a good cause. And I choose animals and I refuse to be guilted into choosing a human cause instead. I don't think it matters what the cause is, as long as everyone contributes something. I guess that I'm tired of the people who think that human beings are more special that the other life forms on this planet. And people also need to stop breeding irresponsibly.
My last four dogs and all of my cats have been rescued as strays or from shelters. They are all spayed or neutered. And they wouldn't have needed to be saved had their previous human owners acted responsibly or kindly towards them.
And for the christian types, Noah was asked by god to save pairs of all living creatures, he wasn't told to fill his ark with people. Animals are just as valuable as humans.
I'M SURE THERE ARE OTHERS OUT THERE WHO SHARE MY POINT OF VIEW.
Phil why don't you try living on a derserted island say for a year. You wouldn't have to pay taxes but you'll get the picture
When I see a stray cat come over the back fence into my yard I go out to meet him with a bowl full of food.
When I see a human come over the back fence into my yard I go out to meet him with a shotgun full of buckshot.
