Some peopple.

Some people ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhh

A bloke i work with got a jack russel pup a few months ago its now 5 months old so got it around 3 -4 months ago, he new that his oh was prgenant shes 6 months gone for goodness sake, even thou now hes claiming they didnt know :/ well needless too say they are now selling because she cant cope haha shes 28 and seiously needs help cant go too the shop by herself.

I hate some people seriously they already have another dog a springer and they arnt gettong rid off him.

he posted it on fb for sale saying donation welcomed, well ive put what i think poor dog again a victim of the lame excuse imo being pregnant...

When I was pregnant we had 1 poodle 1 staff and 1 collie x never crossed my mind to get rid a year later I was pregnant again and got a gsd pup we had her till she was 12
Some people don't think of dogs as living feeling creatures who crave stability and comfort

Wish there were more people like you gem.

Well i told him what i thought they couldnt handle the truth and i got removed from his fb mwahhhhh seeing them at work will be interesting haha.

It's nothing that could cross my mind either.
I don't see what the problem is. Get up an hour earlier and walk the dog. Walk again at night while the other watches the kids, or buy a pram and all go together.
Rest of the time, what's the dog doing demanding they play board games with them?

honestly its pathetic seriously, they are both 28/29 and she cant so bugger all by herself not even walk too the shop. The dog will be better off out of that situation, saying they live in a flat no space etc they new all this before thats why im so angry.

Lame excuse.

Never even considered getting rid of Bandit when I was pregnant. My mum wanted me to, not cause he was a stafford, just cause he was a dog! She thought he'd eat the baby.

I adapted. At one point I had a new born baby & an 18 month old toddler. I had the baby in a sling, the toddler in a pushchair & Bandit on a lead - no problem!

lol caryll

oh there keeping the other dog just not the pup !!!!

She could do with getting a life of her own! By the sound of it, she needs some therapy.

I seriously don't get it. Its me, hubby, 3 kids and Charlie at home. If I got pregnant again, rehoming Charlie wouldn't even cross our minds. Even if we had another set of twins, we still would never even consider it. Charlie chills me out if I'm stressed, a good walk and play does me as much good as him. If anything, a dog is a blessing when you have a family, it gives you a good excuse to get out of the house!

Yes, it's funny, but when I got a bit stressed with having two very young kids & a hubby on shift work, Bandit was the thing that kept me sane! I'd put the kids to bed & go sit on the sofa with him - he'd snuggle up & I'd feel good again.

They just dont think things through do they. Sounds like the young lady may need some help with her issues before the baby comes along. It's sad really.

What on earth is she going to do when the baby cries, needs feeding, wees all down her new dress - just when she's about to do something else?

Probably sell it for a donation!

This is exactly what me and my mate have said she cant deal with dogs let alone a baby. shes ridiculous, well and trully and hes a mug cos she walks all over him.

newborn/young babies are more demanding than dogs...if they can't look after a dog how are they going to cope with a young child!??!?! I thought Jett was hard work as a pup and then my little nephew came along.I'm constantly having to run round after him.Atleast dogs don't scream and have tantrums like babies when they're hungry or they've pooped.

Terrible excuse. If it's not a working dog, it's part of the family, isn't it? Why get a dog if you don't plan on bonding with it? I mean, I guess we should value our own species to dogs...but I don't see why, dogs are the best . When my mum was pregnant with me, my parents had a German Shepherd who was a nightmare; hated men, hated drunk people, would steal food, bite people without warning, almost blew up the house, etc. Yet they didn't get rid of him, they coped with the demon dog and me, and we got along great, apparently . So really, it's probably just an excuse because they see how much hard work it'd be. I guarantee anyone that loves their dog won't get rid of it unless it's more or less a life or death thing.
