I agree completely. Even if he's not tied all the time, that's no life for ANY dog, especially a little puppy. Please do what's best for him and give him up rather than sentencing him to a miserable life outside.

Yes he may eventually quiet down and stop barking all the time....but will it be because his misery went away or because he realized that nobody is going to answer him?

Please Please PLEASE think of what is best for him.
