Yeah, I agree. I waited a long time to get to the place where I could have the dog and know I could give one a good life. The cats were easy, I could always find an apartment that would accept two cats and some goldfish, but try finding a place that allows 75lb dogs. I couldn't begin to take on the whole child thing. Dogs are easy, children are as tough as it gets.

lol. my kid is nineteen. Last pet I had was a ferret, and the ex got him in the split.
I didn't "toss" any animal. I just know better than to take on the responsiblity of one at this time. I live in a small apartment.
I had my last dog for nine years, 6 years ago, and I'm still not really ready to replace him.
Like I said, living things are a responsibility, why take that on if you can't do it justice? Not good for the animal.
