Yeah, I'll never understand that one either. I got the dog from a rescue. She's beautiful. With the exception of the tail, she's pretty close to AKC standard. But some fool didn't think before they bought her and wound up dumping her after two or three years because they said their backyard was too small. What they really meant was they didn't have the time. They never taught her what sit or down meant. She didn't know how to play ball when I got her. I could go on. It stuns me everytime I go to the rescue's site. I've seen beautiful German line, German bred dogs someone paid a fortune to import sitting in the rescue at 18 months. They had a 10 year old dog there once someone turned into a kill shelter because they said he was too old to play ball anymore and they wanted to adopt a puppy to replace him. I don't understand things like that. How can anyone live with an animal for any length of time and not love them? I don't understand people sometimes.

Wow! I have been reading posts where people "toss" their longtime pets away, and it makes me sick! My cats are work, but not that much, and all they give me is LOVE!!!
I do not understand how anyone could get rid of a pet! It's as inhumane as the PETA ads!!!
