For an abused, traumatized dog, a child can be the bridge the dog crosses to experience love and trust in the world. New Mexico is No. 1 in the United States for animal abuse. We rescue all the pathetic little ones we can. We teach and show all we can. Our work is never done, but it is necessary and rewarding.
Sad eyes become happy eyes and drooping tails become wagging tails.
Lonesome, frightened pups become joyful and playful dogs. This is where love and compassion grow. The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.
