RE: Puppy Love ❤️

in Hive Petslast year

Oh that's good to read. I remember encountering such a situation where I had a bad feeling about people and had to tell them we would get back to them. Eventually we voted against it as there were other people we had a good feeling with. Follow your gut is the best advice I guess, I'd never send a pup home with someone that didn't feel too great.

Too many dog owners suck at it honestly, and with shepherds and I think huskies even more so as they need so be able to lose their energy. I was one of these too young dog owners who got lured in by the boyfriend at the time and his family, who had a shepherd (the easiest one out there and definitely not your typical Belgian shepherd, lol) and they made me believe they knew how to deal with them.

Then we moved into a tiny apartment (way too small for such a big dog) with quite a few behavioural issues as it was a stray before ending in the shelter. She was the sweetest dog but it was clear over time that my boyfriend back then surely didn't know a damn thing about the breed and I was the one trying to correct things. This only works if both parties word on that, which (you can guess) didn't happen.

I learned from this experience that it's not just a choice to make overnight and I surely wasn't going to hand out her pups without any thought about where they ended up. I constantly see people with dogs where you can already see, these dogs are in control, not the owner. I love reading how you are considering who adopts them <3

And yes! A lot of poo isn't it haha.
