    @Quercus: :rolleyes: Ugh…maybe instead of marrying a dog, he should enlist people to stone and club him while he is 'mating'. Unfortunately I can't get the image of the original dogs being murdered while breeding..... Personally, I don't think he should be allowed to breed, but your suggestion is the next best thing.;)

    I just don't get it! He is allowed to keep 500 dogs??? What is with that??? What an awful person to make those dogs live like that. I so hope the dogs are able to be rehomed. Poor little things.

    Random comments on the "kill shelter" vs. "no-kill shelter" thing- I work for a no-kill shelter that rescues dogs from local kill shelters. We take ANY dog that is about to be euthanized. We have taken ones that are missing body parts (eyes, limbs, tails), we take ones that are really sick and we take ones that are really old. We have some that become "shelter sweethearts", dogs that can't get adopted and become permanent residents of the shelter or go to one of our foster homes. And TONS of puppies get euthanized all the time.

    Glad to hear your mom did well in sugery. Hopefully your step-father will do better now that the surgery stress is over. It's a shame his own children don't care! That puts a lot on you but he's lucky you guys care. Hang in there!!!

    Yes, they also have to at police academy here. She's hoping…hoping...that having it done now, she will not have to later. I doubt it, but you never know. She tried the milk thing and said it really didn't work. Some info we got suggested canola oil {absorbed the pepper} followed by a wipe down w/alcohol. She didn't want to try that. Spent the night w/bags of frozen potatoes and veggies on her neck and chest, LOL. She was doing okay today; her biggest problem was that her eyes are still irritated and she forgets and rubs them, which is uncomfortable. Also, based on her performance last night, she was asked today to consider taking special training in female defense training and to begin to work w/a female sgt. on doing work w/that on campus - demonstrations and training. Pretty cool.......:) If you met her, you'd never know she had it in her. She's 5'7", maybe 130 if that {and very pretty, of course;) }; You'd think she's all about hair, make up, and shoes. She's living proof that girly-girls can kick butt! :D She's gonna surprise a few bad guys in her career, I'm sure! LOL

    I think the communication breakdown was between Ellen and Portia. Portia (Ellen's partner) was the one who signed the papers so she probably was the one who was told the rules about the adoption. I think Portia probably failed to communicate with Ellen what the rules were if they no longer want the dog. Either way, I think the whole situation was handled poorly and I blame it all on Human Error. It happens.

    Sick, sick, sick! How could anyone do that? All I can think about is how scared those poor animals were and those little trusting eyes looking at the person who was about to throw them off a bridge. There is probably a special place in hell for those types of people!

    I just saw this post and wanted to apologize. I live here and had I seen this, I could have given you some additional advice as I live here and have for 9 years. Next time you come this way, hit me up and I'll give you the 411! As for the rest of you, all confirmed. The metro here is quite good compared to other cities. The cab system is on the zone system. The more zones you cross, the more it costs, but if your driver takes you in a big circle to get from point A to point B, he is only allowed to charge you for the shortest route zones. This only applies to DC cabs, though. If you are in a VA or MD cab, they use a meter. If you take a DC cab out of DC into VA, you'll be negotiating the fare since the zones don't extend past parts of Arlington. And, lastly, DC has just about every cuisine in existence but you might have to dig a little deeper to find the same in Va, but most are there too - just more widespread. For future reference, digitalcity.com is a great resource. Just check the 'cities' best' list.

    I love this! I'm just going to add one more to my version before using it–next to last item--I can legally spay/neuter them so they don't get (or get anyone) pregnant!!!
