Think about the animals. What is better for them? To be in a home where they are at best ignored and at worst mistreated? Or to be rehomed to a place where they are loved and wanted? If someone is to the point that they want to rehome a pet (I'm not talking breeder here, they have an entirely different set of circumstances) there is a good chance that they and the pet will both be unhappy until this takes place. So why fight it? Let's help them find the best home they can. Sometimes personalities just do not mix! |
I agree with this. In many cases (it may be hard for people to believe) people give up their dogs because they love their dogs and want a better life for them, it's not always necessarily because they do not love or care for their pets. At many times it means putting your selfishness aside and doing what is best for your pet.
