I don't understand some people and their attitudes about their pets
. It is really sad.
We had surrendered to OKYR two senior girls (13 & 14) one was on daily meds for seizures and had been since she was one year old. The excuse for rehoming them - "the kids had grown up, moved away and they had been their dogs", also, her parents were elderly, living in Chicago and she was having to travel to stay with them. Her husband worked all day and she didn't think it was fair to the yorkies. If we had not taken them, they would have been PTS.
Both girls were adopted together, unfortunately the older girl with seizures didn't live very long after she was rehomed......it broke my heart
Why couldn't they just keep them? After that many years of loyally loving their owners, only to be given up like that....it still makes me cry.
As much as I didn't agree with their decision, I was and remain grateful they called us. It is so sad, your lady with the groceries didn't give her yorkies the same consideration.
