I don't understand cruelty to animals either and I'm glad I don't because who would want that kind of warped mind. I got my beautiful beagle from the Inhumane Society when she was a pup. She had been beaten and left on the streets. At least she had a fighting chance at the Inhumane Society. When I got her, she only had 3 days left before she was....well, you know. As soon as I saw her, I knew I wanted her. The dog I grew up with died at the ripe old age of 17. I was always partial to beagles and I wanted a female dog. I was on the waiting list for over 2 years at several local shelters before a female beagle was available. As soon as I saw her, I knew she was the right dog for me. She was the best pet I EVER had and for 3 years she was a pet therapy dog at a local nursing home. She lived to be 15. I will always love her.

RE: New Veggie
I cut out red meat from my regimen and noticed a difference almost immediately! I do use ground turkey, though. I still eat fish and poultry. Ground turkey is excellent. You can make Lebanese Kibbeh, which I especially love with ground turkey instead of beef or lamb. You can enjoy turkey chili, which is quite good. So is tofu chili. You can do just about anything with tofu. Dr. Oz said recently that red meat is an inflammatory agent and for those who feel they can't go without it, to cut down to just 1 weekly serving of red meat. He recommended ground turkey as a substitute and the funny thing is, I've been cooking with ground turkey for years ! Once I eliminated red meat from my diet, I immediately (within 24 hours) felt worlds better. My injured knee has gone almost back to normal (pre-injury status) by about 92%. I drink lots of water, thus hydrating my skin. It made a BIG difference!
