Obviously I am not the only one here voicing out their concerns of trying to adopt.
i am not going to argue about staying in a condo having problems with dogs because obviously there are lots of yorkie that stays in condos and what makes anyone thinks that staying in condo will make housetraining harder? Housetraining is never easy wherever you may be, landed property or condo. It is up to the owner to have patience to teach consistently. If someone loves their dogs, no matter how hard it is; they won't give up and if they give them up, simply because they don't love them enough.
I also hope you are not meaning that staying in condo makes the owner of the adopted dog have higher chance of giving them up again because how true is that? Is there a statistics or just based on your own stats? Again, would you give them up if you love them deep deep down in your heart just because of living conditions? Fine if you say the owner has medical problems and see no way of taking care of their dogs; that is fair to say.
And dogs plays outside with their leashes on. If you supervise the play, I don't see you will put your dog in harm's way.endo and ecto parasites? they do exist even in your lawn..and dogs enjoy being outside, going out and all..they were bred to run around outside in the first place..really i don't see the point.we vaccinate them and we do everything to make sure they are healthy, comfortable and happy-that includes a playtime.
Yes I was dissapointed but I am not the kind of person that bear grudges. I say what I think and I stop at that. Its just that a lot of times, adoption rejection based on living in a condo is unfair
