Did anyone watch the National Geographic Channel presentation of BF's
DogTown last night (4 Jan)?  We worked as volunteers at BFAS a couple of
years ago, all of it in the kitty department, but did check out other
areas to include dogs, rabbits, goats, horses, et al to see what they were
like but worked exclusively with the cats.

Anyway, I thought I had a leg up working behind the scenes, a real
know-it-all, I was.  But did I get an education seeing what *really* goes
on!!  Not the nice, superficial introduction to life at a sanctuary (the
time when the animals are happy and healthy) but the ugly side, the hard
work and fierce dedication of the staff, the beautiful comebacks of abused
animals finding love and caring for a change.  I'm a cat person but can't
get those doggies out of my mind.  Bless 'em all.  Thank whatever powers
may be for the merciful kindness in most human hearts, and those who lay
it on the line by their efforts and support.
