CL vent

I was looking over the pets section on CL and someone had a 12 wk old springer pup for "adoption". Her reason was she bought it from some BYB and someone else told her it might not be full springer. She bought the pup for her husband b/c he wanted to train a springer pup for bird hunting. Since it was not certain that the pup was "purebred", he got mad, went out and got an AKC registered springer and now this other one is being kicked out. WTH is wrong with people!!!???

if that was an issue, why did they even get one that wasn't AKC in the first place??? my cousin, arlene heard a bunch of yelping one day... it was her neighbors dog. they had him on a tight little leash outside in northern wisconsin! the day that she heard all the yelping, she went over there to see what was going on. her neighbors were taking the dog (almost pup) out to shoot it because their mom was the only one home all day and she didn't have the time to take care of him. they weren't gonna even try to find a home! so arlene walked over, unhooked the leash, and carried him home! no dog deserves that! people need to think BEFORE getting pets!

Poor dog!! ARRRRGH.... some people make me so mad!! I hate reading the ads on CL for rehoming dogs and cats, usually just lame excuses. Personally, I have moved a couple of times with my older dog as well as had a couple of kids while he has been around..those are usually the two most popular excuses. But to be kicked out just cause he may not be purebred.....so sad!!!
