Can I just say how much I love the trend of people taking pets with special needs into their homes?
Maybe it's always been a thing, but the internet allows people to share the stories of their very special pets, bringing more awareness to it and maybe encouraging more people to do the same.
It's simply that many people don't want to "deal" with the extra work or potential costs — my pupper was the last of his litter due to a hernia that was easily repaired when he was neutered.
