Well said Deanna. When people throw up their hands in
resignation and suggest euthanasia for a 10 week old pup,
we truly have become a throw away society. Pyrs that become
worthwhile members of the family are not born that way. It
comes from intelligent intervention, discipline and training.
All these require time especially when dealing with a puppy.
Euthanasia should not even be considered an option. Good grief!
