Very true. And most of the rescues here are (pit) bull terrier mixes. Sad to think that their people probably couldn't manage them.

Really, I do have my dream dog, and have had for years. I'll whisper it if you promise to think only good thoughts for when the time is right... Shhhh! Don't tell....http://entlebuchers.net/
