AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Wow...how cool are they, to have vision in the simple lines of nature. You have so many cool things to photograph in your area, so many artistic open-minded people...cool!

Pet stores are unfortunately supplied by puppy mills and a puppy mill doesn't have to be huge, it can be a private individual breeding the same few dogs over and over.

The problem now is calling mixed breeds a breed all their own and charging huge prices for these MIXES...they are mutts anyway you look at it, but if people are dumb enough to buy into it, there's where the problem lies.

Schnoodles, Labradoodles, Puggles, Cockapoos, Bichon-yorky...everything under the sun...would you pay $1200.00 for a mix. One woman said she's afraid to let her kids play with the puppy now...craziness!!!

Have a wonderful day friend and think happy thoughts(now that I've put a damper on it)!
