    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.

    Thanks for the great signature Kay!

    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)

    Ugh, I was really, really trying to stay out of this. I've been reading it, though. I think it's noble how many of you are really trying your hardest to get this child to understand that she is not taking care of her dog. And, I'm usually the eternal optimist in most situations. However, something I've learned the hard way...you CANNOT help someone who doesn't want the help. You CANNOT help someone who doesn't see that they're doing anything wrong. The situation is sad and will only get sadder once the new puppy is brought home. It's a fact, and, a miserably sad one at that.

    I'm quite certain they have chains longer than 15 feet though, am I right? I could have sworn we had some while I was stocking them at PetCo. Dont' get me wrong I AM NOT trying to "argue" with you I'm just trying to help you out and give you ideas since your mom doesn't allow her in the house nad you say she isn't allowed at the park because she attacked the duck!

    But we got this chain from a farm and garden place, and we had to pay for it by the foot, plus we had to buy the hook and everything...

    Since you already have a hook you won't need to buy a second one, and try your local PetCo or Petsmart, I KNOW they have them there. :P

    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!!!!!!

    Thank you Kay for the beautiful sig!
