I *LOVE* this show!
Have you watched National Geographic’s Dog Town? If not, you really should if you’re an animal lover. I watch this show with Mom after Dad goes to bed. It’s our special time together.
Dad didn’t believe Mom when she told him that I really do watch this show, so she took a video to prove it.
At first, the show seems kinda sad because it’s about puppies and dogs that have been abused, neglected, or abandoned. But by the end of the show, I’m always happy because the people on the show work really hard to socialize the dogs and do whatever medical treatment is necessary. They usually show the new homes the dogs go to and how happy they are with their new family.
It makes me sad that there are dogs out there living lives that aren’t as great as mine. My grandma and grandpa taught Mom how important it is to make animals a part of your family. Mom will admit to abusing her first kitty, Sam, by dressing him in her doll clothes and bonnets and making him play baby. You can bet your last dollar that Mom would NEVER get away with that sort of thing with me!
Mom tells me that Uncle Michael has told her that when he dies, he wants to come back as a dog in this family. Can’t say that I blame him. I have a pretty good gig here.

We have at least two DVRs recording this show in the house. This is one show that you have to commit yourself to watching the entire episode once you start, as they always start off so sad - if you walk away before the redemption at the end it will leave you bummed out the rest of the day! Also, if you need a good cry, this one is nearly always certain to lubricate those tear ducts.
There are so many wonderful rescue agencies in every town across the country that do their best to help these little guys (all of our pets are adopted from such rescue agencies) - many don’t have the visibility or resources of DogTown, but they do a lot of good with very few resources.
