Hi yen,
Err, you are yen, the one with Guru whom I chatted with at the World Animal Day, rite?
I understand where you're coming from, but I think the situation here is slightly misunderstood.
I sincerely believe this is what happened here.....the subject was beagle and we were focused on the subject and it didn't cross our minds that there might be other dogs in the pound. So, do forgive our ignorance, ok?
All dogs and cats, pedigrees or mongrels/kampung cats have a right to a loving home and shelter (my Blackie is a kampung cat, BTW). This is my sincere belief. I am sure the others agree with me.
