We all know how easy it is to fall in love with a puppy . Your heart/emotions take over vs the gray matter between your ears . People that are first time owners rarely do ANY research , the emotions make the decision on ownership . They forget that they go to work , have hobbies that don't include a dog .
The pet ownership suffers and eventually the pet goes to the pound or dumped by the side of the road . Very sad . A dog is a long term commitment . You have to love it , teach it and medically take care of it . The rewards will be 10 times over . The companionship and love a dog provides to a family is priceless . Unfortunately not everyone feels the same way .
We know a couple going thru a divorce . The soon to be ex wife is staying in their house until it sells . Husband has moved out . They have two kids and a dog . Last weekend the soon to be ex wife moved in with her boyfriend
. So the husband and his family showed up on Saturday to clean/paint the inside of the house to get it ready to sell . They get there and the dog was abandoned in the house
. No food or water was left for the dog ! How can you do this to your pet ????? Some folks should NEVER own a pet .
