DID I FINALLY LIVE LONG ENOUGH FOR AN ADVERTISEMENT ON TV TO KNOCK THE CONCEPT OF TEH VIOLENCE OF YOUNG BOYS-- "BOYS WILL BE BOYS" ----I SWEAR I HEARD ON LAST NIGHT BY GILLETTE-BOYS WILL BE YOUNG HUMANS-- SEEMS TO BE A NEW IDEA-- BUT CHEERS FOR GILLETTE-- IT IS ENOUGH TO MAKE ME GO BUY SOME PRODUCT OF THEIRS TODAY. I REALIZE IT IS NEAArly unamerican to question all teh head injuries of football but young boys in the violence of pop warner football has never been my favorite-- TRAINING CHILDREN IS NOT ALOT DIFFERENT THAN TRAINING OTHER ANIMALS..
IF YOU ARE RAISING A BABY HORSE... AS NEARLY ALL OF YOU ARE, I AM SURE..... IT IS VERY "POPULAR" TO IN THE FIRST 24 HOURS, RESTRAIN THE FOAL BY HOLDING FRONT AND BACK
SO THAT WHEN IT GETS TO BE 1000 POUNDS IT WON'T FIGHT THE ROPES, HARNESS AND HALTERS OF REAL LIFE... OR IN OUR CASE...BE A POLITE PUPPY AND TEH SPOONFULL OF FOOD WILL ARRIVE...
HOW DOES THAT RELATE TO HOW OUR CHILDREN ARE RAISED????
it comes down to mcdonalds happy meals-- "get 'em young train 'em early" somebody said something about bending a SAPLING WILL DETERMINE HOW THE TREE WILL GROW?????

Dear Miss Carlene,
As a tax accountant I have come across a number on non-profits, each with a mission of help and hope.
The thing that jumps out at me in this instance is that most of these non-profits succeed in their mission, but with very large overhead.
I have never encountered a group with more success at changing lives than Carlene White and her SDP non -profit on a minimal budget, with a minimal number of staff accomplishing the work of preparing these dogs to change lives. An organization that has the number of volunteers that SDP has coming from across countries, is quite amazing. Many of us have boarded our dogs to trek across the country, to volunteer at SDP in hopes of being one small part in making a difference. I have boarded my 5 dogs for a week, to come help out.
I have been blessed to be able to spend weeks at a time with one of the SDP Service Dogs and Recipients and am quite amazed how these dogs know what is needed, improvise when needed, be right in step with their person when needed and be silly when Mom needs that too.
I am very proud to spread the news of this very worthwhile non-profit and hope that the work here continues for many years to come.
