I know many people who have dogs tied up in their backyard simply for the purpose of HAVING A DOG IN THE BACKYARD!!! And it's completely normal to them.

I don't understand people who just keep a dog in the backyard and that's it. It's almost a chore to feed and clean up after them. That's really the only interaction they have with them. The next door neighbors have a Westie. I talked to them once about him and found out he's from a rescue. I can't believe they were accepted to adopt a rescue. He's still in jail, but just in the back of a house now. And they have a pool so there's no lawn back there either.
