[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 304500, member: 1550"] We're more right than left leaning in this part of Wisconsin and there are no dogs at cafes (I'd love that:happy:), but the people here are mostly very silly about their dogs and do treat them like family. I don't think it's only liberally leaning folks who love their pets. The laws about animal abuse in my opinion are horrible all over the country. If you provide a shoddy dog house, a bad dish of food and warm water, you aren't abusing your dogs. But when you think about it...you can get away with very little care of your CHILDREN and still not be charged with abuse or neglect. Maybe there IS something in the water...all over the country. :frowny: Also, I have nothing against the south at all. I think it's gorgeous. If hub and I could move away and still visit our kids often (which we could never afford to do), I'd like to move to either Colorado or the very beautiful state of North Carolina. I just love those mountains! [/QUOTE]
