It is not that the dog is not being taken care of. He is not matted or dirty or sick- HE IS AGGRESSIVE. It was not something that someone did to him- not the breeder or his current owner. There are 9 kids in my boyfriend's family- one is a business owner, another is a teacher, another works for the post office, a few are construction workers, one is a nurse and there is one brother, not the oldest, not the youngest, somewhere in the top 4 I think, but he has been in jail almost his enitre life for drugs, violence, etc. Not one other sibling has seen the inside of a jail cell. 1 out of 9. They were all raised the same way, by the same parents. So if you all want to blame the breeder because of her "zoo" or the current owner because she isn't committing to a dog that is just aggressive by pure chance, then go right ahead, but maybe you should stand back and see this for what it really is. It is an owner who wants to find another home for a dog that has special needs that she is not able to accomidate.


(However I do agree $750 is quite a bit to be asking for a re-homing, esp. when the breeder only charged $350)

In the grand scheme of things I think if you read the posts you can see that the money coupled with the her attitude about it is what has people worried for this poor baby finding his new home. Not the fact that she wants to rehome him.
