Comments about ‘Best Friends reaching out to help 'foreclosed-on' animals’

I have great admiration for Best Friends Sanctuary. I think one measure of the strength of our society is the way we treat the homeless, both people and animals. Clearly, we are not what we ought to be, but Best Friends shows how good we all could be. God bless Best Friends.

Lets take care of the important things in life first. There are people throughout the world and in our own communities that need our help.

As the parent of one of the children pictured with the horses in the article, what they teach at Best Friends provides an invaluable lesson to my children and myself about how to be caring, compassionate human beings. This lesson carries over to both humans, animals and even the earth. It is not an either/or, rather it is a both/and. The true measure of a society is how it treats its most vulnerable, both human and non-human.

The article shows the trickle down effect of the economy. No one/thing deserves to be dumped or left behind. Yes, we should take care of ourselves first. But, we should act responsibly with regards to our pets. Not illegally, or immorally.

There are plenty of groups helping people. We can get help from many places when we need it. Thank goodness for people that watch out for the animals. We need more groups like that. We don't uthenize people do we? We make our own choices in life, animals can't they are at the mercy of people.
