We have a large population of Amish here. They have a beautiful quilt auction every year and they get good prices for them. They are skilled at many things.
They view dogs differently that we do. They are the same to them as cows and horses. They do sell dogs in this area at flea markets and roadside stands. Most do not allow them in the house. They are in the barn with the other animals. There was an uproar about some in cages with no water at a farm stand. I am not even sure if that was true.
I respect them very much and may not agree with how they do everything. BUT one things is for sure--they take no government handouts--even Social Security and take care of eachother.,
