I showed the website and the pics to a girl I work with here. She has a female husky/shepard mix that is about 1yr and 6 months and is not spayed yet. Her boyfriend thinks he wants to breed her someday. She's not a purebred and she came from an abandoned litter herself! I have been trying to convince her to take Lucy and have her spayed. I even got them a Friends of Animals certificate for $40 so $ would not be an excuse. They both keep saying that there is no rush. The problem is though that during the day when no one is home, Lucy is kept in a fenced in backyard alone. I keep telling them that if she goes into heat and there are any unneutered male dogs in the area, they will be in that backyard in a flash. The standard response I get is "Well, they would have to jump a 6 foot fence."
And they would, no problem, is what I keep telling them!!!
Anyway, my co-worker says she has no intention of letting her boyfriend breed Lucy but the dog is his responsibility and it's his problem.
It's so frustrating because it is everyone's problem if Lucy gets pregnant accidentally and ultimately the animals would suffer. These people are very nice but obviously should not own a dog. The pictures seemed to upset her as she looked away but it seems to be the mentality of if I don't see it, it's not happening! Makes me want to pull my hair out!!!!!!!!
