Help for Sochi Dogs!

If you like watching the Olympics as much as we do, and you care about dogs, then it is only a matter of time before you find out what the city has been doing to eliminate their stray dog problem.  We certainly don't want to go into details here, but their eradication program is not humane.  Dog lovers have been shocked the world over, but there is a bright light.
