Why Do YOU Give? "It is my belief that animals can teach us a great deal about compassion, unconditional love and responsibility. In a society muddled with electronics, children can thrive with the responsibility of properly caring for pets. Take no animal for granted and treat them with respect. If you do this you will have a dear friend who never judges you." - Laurie
