ALL dogs?!
• So the guide dogs who transform the lives of blind people and give them their independence back, should be “banned?”
• The diabetic alert dogs who warn their owners in advance of dangerous lows and highs in their blood sugar, before any glucose monitors can, saving lives, they should also be “banned?”
• The dogs who alert their owners with Epilepsy or POTS that they’re about to have a seizure or are about to collapse, ahead of time, giving them time to get to a safe place to avoid injury, these should be “banned?”
• The sheepdogs who herd sheep and enable farmers to provide you with your dinner at Easter, they should be “banned?”
• The sniffer dogs who detect massive stashes of drugs that would otherwise go undetected and go on to almost certainly kill people, should be “banned?”
• The sniffer dogs who detect minute droplets blood smaller than the naked eye can see, solving murders, should be “banned?”
• The cadaver dogs who find deceased people and not only bring people to justice but finally give answers to grieving families, should be “banned?”
• The Police dogs who not only catch but also detain criminals whom the police would otherwise be totally unable to catch themselves, bringing these people to justice and in turn, preventing further crime, sometimes very serious crimes against innocent people and/or children; these dogs should be “banned?”
What about the wonderful little miniature schnauzer who kept my elderly mum going after my dad died, quite literally. He kept her going mentally and physically, getting her out of the house for walkies every day. Keeping her company and making her feel like life is worth continuing for at a time when she was suicidal.
Have a word with yourself!
