Doggone Crazies


“We, the people, reject Vice-President elect Biden’s nomination for the Second Dog! The time is now for the Biden family to admit their mistake and make the right choice - Adopt, don’t shop!” So says a website targeting Joe Biden's choice to buy a new puppy from a breeder instead of "rescuing" a dog. Are you kidding me!! With all that is going on in the world right now, give thanks that one little puppy has found a home – and I’m sure a very nice once as well. This preoccupation with having to “rescue” a dog as opposed to buying one from a shop or a breeder is another example of sociopolitical correctness gone crazy. What is more, it has become very obvious to me that many of the “rescue only” brigade get their dogs in this way because it makes them somehow “holier than thou” at the doggie park. Don’t dogs bred in other ways deserve a good home home too. Next thing you know it will only be socially acceptable to some people to adopt children instead of breeding them yourself. Give me a break. Nice dog Mr. Biden. Great choice!!
