[QUOTE="donna723, post: 304712, member: 1883"] MWM Mom, I agree. I know that not everybody is as pet-happy as I am. But I think that somebody who has no feelings for animals, someone with no compassion and no ability to connect emotionally with an animal and see them as a living, breathing, feeling [I]being[/I] ... there's just something missing in that person's emotional makeup. And if they're that way about animals, they're probably not much different with people! I would be very leery of someone like that. And along those same lines, I would be very distrustful of anyone that my dogs took an instant dislike to or were instinctively afraid of. They're a lot better judges of character than we are. Usually my dogs are extremely friendly, especially Katy who is a regular little "Miss Congeniality". But there have been a very few people that they actually backed away from, wanted nothing to do with, even growled at a little. [I]Those[/I] people I worry about! I don't know how the dogs know, but they do and I trust their judgement. [/QUOTE]
