Dear Mr. Hollander:

I take your point that the dogs had no say in their demise.  This does not 
negate my points about the negatives of punish-training dogs for money and sport 
and abusing dogs in pounds in the US.

But I thank you for enlightening me.  As I say, I am a novice in these 
topics, yet Iam eager to learn more.  I would  hope that you as an expert will have 
patience because I will doubtless contiinue to make comments that will seem 
basic and worse yet, uninformed to you.
