My neighbor, who keeps a German Shepard, asked if I would take over the dog for him. He is a first time pet owner and he is not able to tolerate the dog's naughty behavior. His dog is only one year old so you can imagine the havoc she wrecks at home.
I am already keeping a dog, an invalid dog at that, who takes up all my time so even though I love dogs, I am unable to take in his dog. In fact, after this seriously awful experience with a dog who suffered from seizures all his life and one who is invalid due to old age, I swear I am not going to take in another pet.
I told my neighbor that giving away his dog is not the solution. What he needs to do is to send his dog to training school. Pet Shelters In California, for example, does not only offer boarding for dogs whose owners are away for a lengthy period of time, pet owners could also opt for grooming and/or training.
Did you know that a well groomed and trained dog make a happy dog and a happy dog makes a happy owner? Of course, it is another story if the owner doesn't think the dog is part of the family!
