Pet tales

The LMGC and I saw a touching story on Animal Planet about Tonka, a Chow mix who was born without the use of her hind legs. She had a little cart to help her get around and her foster mother ended up adopting her. The three potential adoptive families (one with a mother who used braces to walk, one with a deaf and blind dog, and one with a five year old) were disappointed that they didn't get to adopt Tonka, but were glad that she had a good home.
And then, at the close of the show as I dried my eyes, this from the LGMC..."That was sad all around. The dog in the wheelchair, the mama that couldn't walk, the family with mullets."
