Can we ever understand the minds of our neighbor or family. I am sticking to dogs. Simple needs, unconditional love and they really aren't interested in politics or health care or for that matter the price of gasoline. Although, I know there was movement by a large golden retriever against Mitt Romney, it was, in my opinion, a aberration and certainly not indicative of the breed, which for the most part is happy go lucky and unaware.
On the other hand, my Jack Russell mix, Daisy, was looking for change, wanted to know just when things were going to get better so she could go back to the eating Blue Buffalo rather than Old Roy. Lil Bear, the Chihuahua and Beau, the pug mix were not amused, mainly because they will eat anything and be happy that they can. There were fights about entitlement, 47% and fat cats (which always brings growl). But they never stooped to unfriending on Facebook, which I believe has occurred more than once over the last few months to many of my facebook friends.
So very sad. But today is today, and Daisy, Lil Bear and Beau have begun mending the rift and as far as I know they have agreed to disagree. As it should be.
