    To Whom It May Concern:

    I am so pleased that the Judge decided to let the divorcing couple share Lucky. So many people leave their pets to fend for themselves. I have been an animal lover all my life and finally there are people who will fights for them. They can’t tell us when they hurt or are frightened. I think people show their true humanity when they are kind and gentle to all creatures.

    I will gladly take Lucky if the arrangement does not work out. I have a 12 year old black Lhasa apso and my 16 year mix just passed. They are great companions, very loyal and real joys to be aroumnd….just tell me where to go…

    To brian,
    In that case, it is your opinion.To the owners, Craig and Gayle,the “mutt” is Lucky, a loved dog who had to go through a tough time in the divorce court. Lucky is a beautiful dog and it is hard to find cute Lhasa apso. I find Lucky adorable and I also have a Lhasa apso that looks similar to Lucky.I think Lucky has more love than you do.
