Re: Possible Beagle Rage HELP?? NOW URGENT!!!

Re: then how would I word this??
Just another FYI (oh goodness I am a blabber mouth you can say it!!)

We’ll get through this together. You’re not sick...

Re: Here's an interesting discussion question...
For us here at the Sanctuary..I use neither..We call them all "Special Needs'" I do not know the "politically correct" word, but I have never considered any of our rescues to be anything else..they just have "special requirements and needs"..are not handicapped or disab...
