I don't think age has anything to do with it. I was 17 whenever my boyfriend at the time, who is now my fiancee, bought me Ellie. He looked into reputable breeders around our area and found the perfect one for me and I have cared for her just as good as anyone who is older would and I am only 20 now. I think a lot of times people think that just because someone is young they can't properly care for anything. I have always been mature beyond my years, and Ellie is my "child" as well as Lilly Anne and I would never give my dogs up for anything. Just wanted to clear it up that it was because this girl didn't want to properly care for the dog not just because she was young. I have seen older people that were horrible at taking care of dogs as well.
