If you don't read anything else from this post read this-“Saving just one dog won’t change the world, but it will surely change the world of that one dog.”
Ok if you read my post, Adopt a Friend. No Matter the Species., then you read my mini rant about how much I HATE it when people have their dogs chained up all day, every day, their whole lives. My friends have heard me rant about my frustration with ignorant people and about how I wish I could chain all those people and do the exact same thing to them!!

They would beg to be set free while they bake in the hot sun, tangled up on debris in the yard unable to reach the green stagnant bowl of water, laying in their own waste, they would pull and pull choking themselves unable to get off the chain around their necks..... I realize I sound like I'm being dramatic, but I'm not.
The difference between chaining dogs and chaining humans is that dogs do not hate the ones who chained them up. They do not sit out there hating their owners ,they sit out there wondering what they did wrong. Humans would sit out there thinking about how they would get back at the one who did this to them, how they hate them, and how they would seek revenge. Dogs..well as man's best friend they wait for you to return and shower you with love....
I took these pictures April 2010..
Yes, animals do get sunburns. No, they do not like to lay in their waste. Yes, animals like fresh water. Yes, they will continue to love you no matter you do to them. No, that does not mean you can do whatever you want to them.
NO, DOGS DO NOT LIKE TO BE CHAINED!
NO, THEY DO NOT DESERVE IT!
Enjoying my casa.

Exploring the park!!
His owner said he was a " cat killer".
Ha ha yea right. He would nap w/ my kittens.
Not only did he do all this but he was at almost every tennis practice my senior year and was in the team picture:)
Anyway back to chaining up dogs, if you do not have time for a dog do not adopt one. If you see a dog that is neglected get involved. That is what I did with JJ, I would bring him to my house for days at a time during the summer, take him to tennis practice everyday, and when I dropped him off I changed and cleaned water/ food dishes. Since his owner was gone 3 days at a time he did not always have food so I would bring him some and put sunscreen on his nose. Multiple times I took him to the vet for check ups and once for stitches (its unknown if he got hurt with me or over there). Here is a website with tips--->Unchain Your Dog. Honestly, I am not very good at confronting people nicely. I'm passionate, get frustrated, and I am not really a people person haha. The thing you need to remember when trying to help an animal in this kind of situation is, the government sees pets as property not beings. I had to learn this the hard way:( Since I spent so much time with JJ I felt like he was really mine. FALSE I had no legal right over him therefore I could not protect him. My heart broke everytime I picked him up or dropped him off, no boy had ever hurt me like this... how could it be that the first time I get my heart broken is because of a dog?
I told my dad that people thought I was weird because I loved a dog that was not even mine. His response was "why is that weird? I have met way more dogs I liked than people" haha I love my daddy, he gets me:) Despite my many efforts to adopt JJ I failed. I admit I went about it the wrong way, I was critical, threatening, and angry. I became even worse once I realized I would never be able to help him. "HOW COULD I CHANGE THE WORLD IF I CAN'T EVEN HELP A DOG?" and other negative thoughts ran through my mind. 3 years later the story has a sorta happy ending, JJ and his owner moved to another house with a better fence(so is no longer chained), a big dog house, and I think his owner cleans out the yard once in awhile. Another thing is he is aloud inside more!! yay:) Thanks for reading about my K9 friend, now go out there and change the world for at least one dog.
