One of my friends has a young female dog who stays in a cage in the house while my friend is at work. My friend works 12 hour shifts and has no one to let the dog out, check on her or feed her during the day. I've spoken to him about this and he told me he cannot afford to pay for someone to go and walk to dog (even though he's doing 12 hour shifts) and he cannot get rid of her (even though she has no life and he barely sees her) Last time she went for a proper walk was 4 weeks ago when I took her because I felt so sorry for her being locked up all day. She has no food or water in her cage, just a few toys and she gets treats. I don't know how else to approach this with him and he went mad at me last time I brought the subject up with him. Any ideas what I can do as its killing me knowing she's locked up for so many hours a day.
