in college i saw a lot of this with my friends and dogs: kids on their own for the first time, finally move off campus, then BOOM dog. almost every dog i saw around my college was so poorly trained they were down-right scary. they would charge the front door, they were overly territorial, they had serious dominance issues, they weren't house-broken, and worst of all: they. did. not. listen. these kids were plain unfit to care for these rescue dogs. granted i have never in my life owned or really been around dogs, and don't know much, but i know that what i saw was unfit owners. it's like they couldn't take 24hrs to really think about what taking in an animal means, or just stop being selfish for a while to see that maybe it's not right for animal.
