That's just crazy. No offence but I don't think they should have a dog. They are making up stupid excuses. I am no stranger to dogs. Since I was born we've had four dogs before our forever dog Belle. But we had reasons to give them up. The first one, Buster, who I hardly remember but he looked like a Lab or Golden, bit me in the face one time, and this wasn't any playbite or a bite by mistake, he was aggressive, either that or couldn't handle kids. Our next dog, Pagen (Sheltie) was abused and my dad knew of this so he adopted her from the abusing parents. Well come to find out my sister has terrible, terrible allergies to her, so we have to give her up. And then comes Princess, the best dog, she was a Lab/Golden (my dad loves yellow Labs) nothing wrong with her except the fact that she chased cars. Well we didn't let that stop us from owning her. But before we moved my father went and checked out the place where we were moving to, and the owner of the place (the IDIOT) said to my dad that NO DOGS WERE ALLOWED and laid it out straight. So we gave Princess up to one of my mom's friends. Once we moved here, we saw dogs everywhere, which really ticked me off. Well a few years later we see cute Husky/Alaskan Malamute mixes at the petstore. Me and my sister both went wild. So one night dad came home with one. We had him for a few months and come to find out we got another aggressive dog. So we gave him up to a guy who raised Huskies and sleded them for a hobby. Well this dog (Max) would bite off other dog's ears and bite every family member there. So he definitely was aggressive. And now we have Belle. And we are never gonna give her up.
