If you are gone 10 to 12 hours a day you don't have the time to deal with the issues this dog has. You sister has already made a mess of the animal and should have no claim on her. I don't know what you do with your dogs for 10 to 12 hours a day while you are gone but that is way to long for any dog to be penned up. Koukla needs full time care right now.
A rescue is not the same as giving her to a shelter. A rescue would help to deal with the her issues and make sure she went to just the right home. They don't let just anyone have their animals. That little dog needs someone with lots of experience in dealing with a dog with problems. Do her a favor and contact some rescues and at least talk to them. There is a huge problem with abused and abandoned animals in this country right now. Many rescue organizations are over burdened. If you can find one to take her you should consider it a real blessing to both you and Koukla. |
