Politicians Never Talk About Dogs

I haven't had time to answer Gladstone's witterings recently because I've been closely watching the presidential election contest and wondering why politicians never talk about dogs. Why is that? Because they don't have a vote? Dogs are still constituents though, and deserve their barks to be heard.

More then 9 million animals are euthanized every year in the US. Deaths that could be avoided if politicians paid more attention to the desperate condition of so many American animal shelters.

I'm going to write to the three candidates and ask them what they intend doing about it. I'll let you know the outcome.

RIGHT ON! State government collects sales taxes on pet related purchases. What are they doing to serve the animals they profit from?
