Sorry, slight hijack, I need to vent.

Watching people cry at funerals for dogs and horses while thousands of chidren are starving to death and being molested every day makes me want to puke.

This is River (this was her name before we picked her, meant to be obviously). She's about 2 1/2 years old, a sheppard/boxer mix. She's only about 35lbs, but looks bigger in the pictures. We got her from an animal shelter.

you know people who hold funerals for dogs and horses?

is this an event that they invite people to? is there a casket? free food? drinks?

is this normal?

I always thought you buried your dead animals in your backyard with a couple stones piled up over the grave... or had the vet dispose of the body.

I'm totally an animal person and have loved every pet I got.

I find it humorous when people say they "love" a pet.

I'm referring to memorial services for police dogs and horses that seem to be showing up on my local newscasts more frequently. (complete with pictures of said animal and crying humans)

You don't have a dog do you?

I cried when my previous dog died. Is that strange to you?

Why do you spend your time posting on an internet message board while thousands of children are starving to death and being molested every day?

Being judgemental about what other people care about and how they express their feelings is absurdly arrogant.

The only dog I had when I was a kid was a Siberian Husky. This one looks similar to mine.

I find this statement rather disturbing in a dogmatic Cartesian way.

Wow, you must be a spectacular human being. I cried when our first family dog got lymphoma and had to be put to sleep. But, I'd also cry if my kids were starving or got molested. I hope you don't think any less of me.
