Sorry if this doesn’t really fit here or brings the tone down a bit.
I can’t help but trawl the adoption section of my local gumtree type website and lately I’m seeing absolutely loads of people giving up their older ddogs. 6 years right up to 12 and 13. All sighting difference reasons and of course some of them will be genuine and absolutely heartbroken but some of them have busier lives now with young kids etc. Surely you see these things coming, surely you know a dogs potential lifespan.
I just find it so hard to understand and think about how confused the poor ddog will be leaving the family it’s known it’s whole life.
Why more now than ever before is this happening I wonder?
