Well, since I started this post I must chip in... I am a huge animal lover, esp dogs. Most of my charitable donations go to the HSUS and to a local pet adoption charity here in town. I am sure that some of these dogs may not be treated as well as they could be by some of the owners. However, I think we could find that to be true of anyone who competes in a grueling sport (even some humans). However, I still admire Lance Mackay and his determination and also his outspoken love and admiration for all of HIS dogs.

I guess it's all about balance, and some people don't seem to have that...
