People will sooner aid a sick dog lying on the sidewalk than to try to find shelter for a sick person. It's too much to deal with.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Sick animals can lead to sick people.
We can stop the cycle of animal homelessness and save lives by opening our hearts and homes to a loving cat or dog from an animal shelter instead of buying animals from breeders or pet shops.
The government needs to help those in need, but members of Congress shouldn't take advantage of the situation and use a national tragedy as an opportunity to spend taxpayer dollars on their pet projects.
If you saw a dog going to be crushed under a car, wouldn't you help him?
It's interesting. People go to an animal shelter and pick a dog that's been kicked, beaten, and has lost a leg and an eye, and they'll take that dog home and give it love and support, but they don't do that with people.
Why would you want to do anything else but rescue a pet?
It is rewarding beyond words to rescue a dog from the shelter and have that dog become part of your family.
I see dog stories as an antidote to the dire news that nothing is ever going to get better.
When there's a terrible illness like AIDS sweeping through, you help people.
Everybody should have a shelter dog. It's good for the soul.
