Well...

[Roxyluvsme13]

What just confuses me is that you're willing to pay $500 for a Pom from a breeder, yet you won't make the trip to save one from a rescue?

Because, My mom is driving not me, and she would rather drive 30m rather than 3 hours, and spend the $500 rather than paying all that money in gas...

I'm not arguing at all, I just asked a simple question out of curiosity.

EDIT: And driving three hours will cost less in gas than paying $500 for a new puppy.

Well, ok but we have already found our puppy, and she is already ours...we just cant have her until shes old enough to leave her mom...

Well, it looks like the damage is done . I just hope that out of this entire thread you at least learned something and more can be done for Roxy. Please don't let this new puppy take away time from her. You said you only play with her for 1 hour a day. That means for 23 hours a day she is tied up all alone . I hope that with the new puppy you won't forget or ignore Roxy. It's also sad that you said that in june/july you took her for a walk everyday. What happened in August, Sept, and Oct? please start walking her again. I'm sure it would mean so much to her.

I would never ever ignore Roxy! Shes not allowed to go to the place we used to go walk, because she attacked a duck there, and I'm not allowed to walk her anywhere else

Perhaps get her a longer tie-out then?? 15 feet isn't long enough for a dog's living area to be confined to.

And you may have already answered this, but does she had a dog house or shelter for the winter (if you have winter lol)

Do you think you would be allowed to walk her around the block? Would your mom go with you if your not allowed to walk Roxy by yourself? Owning a pit and pit mix myself I know how much engery they have. She needs walked please, please try to walk the poor girl. She deserves that so much!!!!!!

Great. And in the meantime Roxy sits outside all by herself. She really, really needs a new home.

Are you KIDDING ME?!?!?!? OMFG. They are waiting for a new puppy WHILE ROXY IS OUTSIDE? My God, if I were in the same city as you I would come and take Roxy away from you. Right now.

Ya know folks Kari is right, no matter how much we try and tell this young lady that what she is doing is not right, she will not listen, her mind was made up from day one to get the new puppy, end of story,and she is not prepared to listen to the advice offered even though it is good and sound, some of it is beyond her control as she is only 13 and we must keep that in mind, like not rescuing a Pom from a shelter, her mother has made the decision here.

Briana I am sad that you have not managed to hear anything really that has been said to you, I don't want to sound harsh or become impolite, but honestly you should be taking care of Roxy's needs before you even consider this new puppy, I have no doubt you love Roxy, but a lot of people love their pets, they are just not always aware of the real needs of that dog, and to me anyway it seems that way here too.

I suppose all I can say is I hope that you have taken even a little of it in and realise that Roxy needs more attention and you will just have to make time for her, if you think you have little time now between school and recreation activities what makes you think you will have any more time for the new puppy, seems to me Roxy is the one who will miss out again.

Even though I certainly agree with most posters that Roxy may not be in the best home possible, we still have to remember she is fed, housed, taken care of and loved all the same , her outlook could be a lot bleaker, but still you should make more effort on her behalf,having said this I am going to try and stay away from this thread also, as it does nothing but distress and Fustrate me.
