Poodle Haunting

The political persons in my county have selected me to prosecute a truly malevolent man for animal cruelty. The case makes me sick. I was reluctant to take it on because I felt that it would divert my efforts from the family violence cases that occupy all of my working hours and I thought that it could anger some victims, who might say "A dog is a more important vicitm than me?" (This is North GA. I am sure that sentiments are different in other parts of the world.)
After several hours of veterinarian interviews, necropsy photos, animal shelter visits and analysis of Georgia's Animal Protection Act my mind and spirit have fixated on the animals that I have loved - particularly Rascal, the little boxer/bulldog mix that was my dear friend for 17 years. Also Snuggles, the alternative lifestyled Redneck Tom Cat, whose litter box it is my purpose to attend.
My self absorbed POV is that your haunting and my mindset are related.
We are fools to deny the spirituality of animals. A heaven where the lion and lamb lie down together is literal, I believe.
I hope, particularly since the loss of your father, that you enjoy the visit.
