Well, I don't think Oprah *genuinely* cares. It's all scripted to make the audience go ooohhh and ahhhhh and cry, and the money rolls in. I'm glad that she is informing the public, but then I again I also don't think she cares that much, hence the fact that she got the 3 puppies from a BYB. Heck, she can get as many dogs as she'd like - at the end of the day, I doubt she's the one who takes care of them anyways. Isn't that what assistants are for?
