ReplyDeleteThe love for dogs and animals runs deep in our veins through the generations! My Dad was a great lover of animals. He befriended many a dog during WWII, and we had a menagerie of pets growing up - from 77 baby chicks in house in Queens, to dogs, cats, horses, a bull, parakeets, and cats when we lived in the country! And, it certainly has passed down to me! Love the animals!
