car with all are decisions middle schoolers face often or daily.
I don't understand why we don't see the MR2 Spyder on these lists more?!? I know the earlier ones were plagued with oil / engine -
eating problems, but the later models are reliable to 100k + miles and cost similar to the same aged Smart Roadster above... but compared to the Smart, for your # 2k - # 5k you

car with no traction control and a LSD as standard:)
No one could

Many pets can live long accident free lives today, but no owner can guarantee their canine or feline companion will never have an accident such as
eating a sock, swallowing a rock, or even
getting hit by a
car in the driveway.
Many dogs can live long accident free lives today, but no owner can guarantee their canine companion will never have an accident such as

getting hit by a

Real dogs not only must be housetrained - most owners are aware of that need; they also must be taught not to chew the furniture, taught not to jump on their owners, taught not to play - bite, taught not to bowl over the toddler, taught not to dig holes
in the yard, taught to come when they are called, taught not to
eat the homework or the woodwork, taught not to swipe food off the table, taught not to growl at strangers or bark at the mail carrier, taught to walk on a leash without dragging their owner down the block, taught to allow their toenails to be cut and their coats to be groomed without biting the groomer, taught not to shred feather pillows and down comforters, taught not to steal the baby's toys, taught not to growl at their owner's mother -
in - law, taught to sit, stay, and to lay down when and where the owner tells them to, and to wait there until the owner says they may
get up (absolutely essential commands for the dog's own safety), taught not to escape out the front door or out of the yard or out of the
car when the owner looks away for just a second... all of these things and many more are not «natural» canine behaviors; they must be taught by owners who are willing to spend the time and the effort doing so.
Pets can also develop diseases, such as cancers and
get serious injuries if
in a fight with another animal,
get hit by a
car or
eat something dangerous, such as diapers or poisonous foods.
Landscape damage, feces all over, and the worst part: cats being flattened
in the street by
cars, and
getting eaten by coyotes... and traumatizing the children who witness both events.
They have complained of cats ripping garbage bags and vinyl
car roofs,
eating flowers and shrubs, scratching
car paint and
getting stuck
in car engines.
«To the animals, it means a real improvement
in comfort and quality of life — when we see «pep
in the step» of the injured dog that was able to receive emergency vet care after being hit by a
car, or the cat that
gets relief from sore teeth or infected ears and begins to
eat and play normally.»
