dogs for prisoner idea.

[Anonymous]

I thought a good way to give people convicted of crimes something positive to do and improve their life a bit would to let them care for a dog while they stay in prison. It would give them something to love and love them back and a sense of some responsibility and something to do and care for. Then if they get out of prison they can take the dog with them. They could give them the dogs that are getting put to sleep all the time. If I were in charge of prisons I would do this. Maybe I will write them a letter once I get my idea together. I think it's a win-win for dogs and people. I think having a dog helped me out.

I got this idea from a Nevada prison they bring in wild horses and domesticate them and sell them. The prisoners are the ones who do the horse training.
