People figure out some things very quickly.....such as... if you "think" you need a cop fast, tell them you see a gun. If you "think" you need animal control fast, tell them the dog is ready to attack.

And then there are people who can't figure out some things for the life of them.....a sure sign of ignorance. They couldn't figure out if a dog was friendly any better than they can fight their way out of a paper bag. All you can do is shake your head and smile in sympathy....otherwise it'll just make you crazy.

Luna went through this "starvation" phase with her intestinal disease. She really did look like she was abused at the time, so I couldn't really blame people for wondering.....once I explained it to them, they left with a better understanding that not all things are what they seem.
