Dogs are pack animals and need to be with their pack (family). It's like torture for them to be tied out like that. My mother made us tie our dogs outside, and I didn't know any better at the time either. I'd give anything to be able to go back in time and change that.
Jackie's a lucky dog, and I'm sure she has a good life ahead of her
