| It has it's pro's and con's. It would be hardest on the dog I would think. Getting use to a human and then he's not there any longer until next time sounds too confusing to me. I do like the aspect of a human going to the ASPCA and taking a dog out for the day. I think that's a wonderful idea, however, then the poor pup has to go back. See what I mean about pro's and con's. It benefit's the human more than benefit's the dog it seems. Strange. |

I know I wouldn't be dog sharing but it must work for others.

| To me that is wrong. Dogs need to be bonded to their families. The poor dog had two different names.

| a much better "take" on this is to swap homes and pups... those who trust each other with each other's pups.... you simply swap homes for a weekend or week......the pups get to stay home and be pampered by someone new and you get to go & hang out with pups you've come to love on here.... seems like a pretty cool way to see other areas of the country without stressing your pups by travel... |
