It amazes me how many professional dog walkers there are these days.
Of course, in one way, it can be portrayed as being good that some employment has been created.
However - and it is a huge HOWEVER - I am dead set against this trend.
Similarly, I don't agree with people who have children and then pass-off their off-spring to nannies and the like.
Too many dogs are for "show" - and, far more importantly, so are some children.
We women are said to have a biological need to have children. Fine. We also, though, have a moral obligation to organise our families so that parents play a prime - and positive - role in the upbringing of those children.
I don't have children - or a dog. My choice. If your choices are different, make sure you face up to the responsibilities that go with those choices. Don't expect people like me - or the Government - to step in to solve your problems if your choices prove to have been the wrong ones.
Walk the walk - and the dog - AND LOOK AFTER YOUR OWN CHILDREN.Â
