Never, ever ceases to amaze me how many poeple move and cannot take their animals with them and I just think it is a big crock of s*** if you ask me. every day I read the claasifieds and every day someone has a post that they need to find a new home for their pet because they are moving or after 3/5/7 years they no longer have time for the animal. I really hate some people. Oh and let's not even get started about the people who always threaten to take the animal to the shelter if it is not adopted by someone. Is that supposed to make us feel guilty?? Us with the houseful of animals that we will be responsible for the rest of their lives so they can feel less guilty. If they can honestly take their animal to the shelter and surrender it they have no conscience.Geek said:Seriously, not only are they giving up their dogs, they let them have puppies

So is it better to keep a pet and negelect it?Animals4Life said:Never, ever ceases to amaze me how many poeple move and cannot take their animals with them and I just think it is a big crock of s*** if you ask me. every day I read the claasifieds and every day someone has a post that they need to find a new home for their pet because they are moving or after 3/5/7 years they no longer have time for the animal.
Exactly... I am amused folks are getting so upset with people that are trying to find a home for their animals rather than just take 'em straight to the pound or drop 'em off on a farm somewhere to fend for themselves. Good grief.Elle said:So is it better to keep a pet and negelect it?
I do find it irresponsible but sometimes things change and people's lives change as well.
BTW, I'm still not taking that Chinese Crested from you.kwillia said:Exactly... I am amused folks are getting so upset with people that are trying to find a home for their animals rather than just take 'em straight to the pound or drop 'em off on a farm somewhere to fend for themselves. Good grief.

Exactly! There is a whole detachment getting sent to Iraq next month, wife may want to go stay with relatives while hubby is gone and there may be no room for the animals. Better finding a caring home than living in a kennel for a year. JMOMMDad said:This is a Navy town. There are many places they could be transferring to that do not allow dogs.
