5. All my dogs over the years

have been adopted... except one. That was the one that never became family. It was a show dog with an AKA pedigree which upon reading was a pitiful line of inbreeding and irresponsible animal DNA cruelty. From that experience I leaned many things about how important it is to find dogs that best connect to the owner. Forget the breed and pedigree false sense of class. Look into their eyes, how do they see you... and in a simple moment you'll know if they have accepted you as their friend.
