Thank you.. I grew up on a farm & always had dogs running with us.. Thats when you bond is when you & the puppy are young.. I think 12 & 14 is a good age to have a dog.. Heck its everyday you hear of Grown Adults that abuse & dont know how to treat pets & are cruel to them.. I just think the whole subject matter has gone way out of line.. I read somewhere that Moms & Mutts had already adopted the dog to someone else.. The bottom line here is just get the puppy to a loving home & leave him so he can get settled..
