My Chardonnay

Upon reading the title of this post, most people would think I am speaking of chardonnay, the white wine..sorry to disappoint, but my Chardonnay is referring to my pit bull, whose name is yes, Chardonnay. For me, projects and assignments and choices made in general seem to go always go back to supporting the Humane Societies and the work and efforts that are taken to reduce and hopefully one day stop all animal abuse, in every form.

Chardonnay!

My dog, Chardonnay, whom I have had for about two years now is the complete opposite of what everyone labels the breed of pit bull as being. She considers herself to be a lap dog, and is very fond of licking your face until it is raw. I read a quote recently that said "I am 100 times more likely than my pit bull to rip your throat out," and this is so true! In all seriousness, this breed and many other animals, not just house pets, are misunderstood and treated unfairly and poorly because of lack of care, knowledge, and quite truly, patience. Animals are like children in that they need a lot of love and attention, but the rewards and love you receive back as an owner are so rewarding. Many animals are abused and left to die every day because of so many different reasons, and this is the sad truth. The American Humane Association's mission is as follows:  "Since 1877 the historic American Humane Association has been at the forefront of every major advancement in protecting children, pets and farm animals from abuse and neglect. Today we’re also leading the way in understanding human-animal interaction and its role in society. As the nation’s voice for the protection of children and animals, American Humane Association reaches millions of people every day through groundbreaking research, education, training and services that span a wide network of organizations, agencies and businesses."
