My brother and sister-in-law had a chocolate lab puppy. They told me that they forgot to feed her often but "it was okay because when they did feed her they fed her a lot" I can't even imagine that. I have to feed my dogs everyday. Sometimes i have to go home early to feed them and i tell the people that i have to go because my dogs are expecting me, they're hungry. They also had a baby recently and told mom they didn't want the dog so she asked what they were going to do with her and they said they were just going to drop her off. Mom started crying and my brother said "oh mom, its just a dog" Luckily mom convinced them to give her to a friend. They live with us now and i recently caught my sister-in-law kicking my dog because he wouldn't get out of her way. Tiny's lazy and everyone's learned to step over him because he just lays there but that didn't give her any right to kick him! I was furious! She is no longer allowed to even touch any of my dogs and i'm still not speaking to her. (She kicked him pretty hard) Tiny has become very whiney since then. People like them should never be allowed to keep animals. I could go on and on about them but i'm running out of time.
