So for someone to HAVE THEIR baby with them, and complain like that - I just had to speak my opinion. 2 years after his death, I got Smoky (my first Yorkie)- who has shown me just how "sickly" my poodle Jackson really was. I know it is frustrating, but that baby depends on you for EVERYthing!

RIP Jackson - momma will always love you!
Hi there and welcome to YT. I was angry about that statement too. Nobody should ever compare a animal to a car. It is always tragic when a beloved pet becomes serious ill. However, it is up to the owner to take care of the animal and do what is best for the creature. I am not keen on giving it up because of the dog being sick. People make it work everyday , and will do anything in their power for a pet. Even if it is a financial sacrifice.
