I'm sorry, but I need to vent...I'll try my best not to swear lol....this will probably be long....
You all remember my sister and her husband, right? The people with absolutely no common sense? If not, I'll refresh your memory...
Hmm they would be the ones who went and got a cute little westie puppy from a PET STORE, while they lived in an apartment, fully AWARE that dogs were not allowed in their apartment. They talked to us before and we all told them NOT to get a dog, especially since they have a young child and neither one of them is even remotely responsible enough to care for a dog. Also when she first married him he told us if he had kids he didn't even want them at our house because we had dogs. He said he would never even let a dog ride in his car, let alone his house. Of course, they didn't listen...and I ended up watching the dog for like 3 weeks before they moved into a house.
I warned them not to get a dog from a pet store, they didn't listen, and he was VERY hard to potty train...they didn't take him to any training classes or socialize him. He was still a very sweet little dog. They had him for a few months (still not potty trained) and then decided to get ANOTHER dog. Yes, very smart, you can't handle the dog you have so why not go and get another?
So they get the black schnauzer puppy, Sydney. Two days later they gave McKinney the westie away.I was incredibly angry about all this.....I did give them a chance though...they did take Sydney to puppy kindergarten, feeding her premium food, etc.
Probably about a month ago they were complaining to my mother that they "didn't have money" to feed Sydney and that they didn't like her around their child, Savannah, and that they were afraid she was going to bite her, etc. She talked about getting rid of her.
During all of this they had been visiting adoption events and looking at dogs in the newspaper. (they didn't tell me this of course, just my mother....she calls her and upsets her at least 3 times a day) Jesse did though tell me about this "cute husky we wanted so badly Alisha almost brought it home...."
Yeah, so today, I found out they GOT A DOG!!
Jesse works every day, very long hours. He doesn't even have time to spend with his own child or wife. Everytime I see him he is half alseep because he works so many jobs and never has time to rest. Yet, he is proposing he will have time to spend with this dog...he never even has time for Sydney! That is so SELFISH of him. He should be spending the time with his child, not this dog. It is selfish to bring another dog into a home like this. Alisha is home all day but she constantly complains how tired she is from watching Savannah. (they are also trying to have another child!!) She is afraid of big dogs....she always thinks Nebo's going to hurt Savannah...and she says she is allergic to shedding dogs. So the dog would live outside in a dog run.
It's because of the stupid mentality like they have that there are so many dogs in shelters. He just got the puppy "because it was cute." Yes, but intelligent people see a cute puppy and think "Oh what a cute puppy....but a big responsibility that will grow up." He just thinks "Oh what a cute puppy..." he doesn't even bother to think about anything else. Sure, all puppies are cute, but uhh, they don't stay cute little puppies forever.
If they talk to me I'm going to try my best to hold back my first reaction to strangle them and try to speak to them logically (if that's possible with them) and convince them to let me find the dog another home.....*sigh*
