It has all gone to the dogs & grain

Busy doesn't even begin to describe how crazy I have been lately. Work (which I rarely speak of here) has kept me knee deep in dog doodoo for a while....literally. Part of my state government agency's work is finding those puppy mills in our state that are abusing and neglecting animals. Pitiful, I know. Another part? I talk about everything to do with agriculture.

Here are a couple of stories for you to read what I have been up to:

• 200 dogs seized at kennel
• Farmers Seeking Millions in Damages
• Woman charged with animal abuse after breeder raid

Three different stories about three separate instances all in one week's time - all including quotes from me. Sheesh - I do not know if I am coming or going, talking about dogs, grain or more dogs and definitely not getting sleep. But I guess it goes to show I love my job - or I would have bailed off this train a while ago.
