I will continue to pray for you as it is apparent that you issues with yourself first, and God secondly. If I offended you, I apologize, it's just we worked really hard to help Faith grow and become the dog she is. Having a handicap does not stop her. Why do you feel the need to be mean online? As an educator I often wonder about students who are nasty online...it's quite telling.

I am not mean.
It's a dog, not a human, and it's disability is a part of nature and nature very well determines what happens to animals. In this case nature was set on elimination of the dog and you interfered.
It's fine that you love it but it is not a miracle or a human or anything more than a disabled dog. Your feelings are your personal link to that dog.
Sadly, don't expect me or others to gush over the dog. I have no attachment to it whatsoever, unlike you, because it's not my dog. I mean there is this guy with no legs who rides around on a skateboard and grabs your legs with his arms to ask for money. I'm sure his mother loves him, but I don't love the legless man. It doesn't make me mean.
And if you are able to fly Faith around the country and show the disabled dog off on a writer's earnings, that's great. I'm not sure how it's possible unless you're a very well to do writer, but it's great.
Besides, Jude, you're the one who is essentially telling me I'm facing eternal damnation for not loving your dog. I think that's mean. I don't like fire or brimstone or red devils with horns or any of the other stuff I don't believe in
