Typical bloody timing

[Shrophunter 7]

Despite constantly looking, I've been without a "proper" job since the start of the year and got my lurcher pup to give me something to do and a reason to get out of bed in the morning. I've been putting in loads of time and effort with her and shes coming on lovely. I've been wishing her life away looking forward to running her next season and seeing how good she will be.

Then yesterday out of the blue I was offered a brilliant job with good pay which I just can't turn down. Only trouble is it involves regularly travelling all over the UK at short notice,lots of overnight stays and irregular hours . My wife works really long hours herself so theres not going to be anyone around to look after the dog. I know I should be thankful for the job but why the f**k now ?

Sorry rant over.

if it means money for the family then put that first and get a good home for the pup

yep sound like you have my type of luck but as this mans says famly first

[dodgers mum 4]

bet your gutted but as said family first as you already know how hard it is getting jobs.Can you not find a mate who would look after your pup for you,or family that could help in any way.Feel right sorry for you,or part share the pup.

Why get a pup in the first place?? if you can not be arsed to look after it wern't you expecting to get a job? my missus works I work but still have time to look after the dog ferrets chickens and pigeons I work 6 days aweek out of the house at 7am and not back until after 6pm 2 weeks of days and 2 weeks of nights I go out shooting ferreting and running the dog

 

Some people shouldn't be allowed to keep animals seems they carn't even look after themselves

Read my post closer dickhead - I can't look after the pup if I'm not at home can I ?

Perhaps I should just keep the pup and remain penniless ? Would that suit you ?

Don't be so quick to jump to conclusions

An other one who think,s a lurcher is some thing to do between job,s.Poor thing could now be passed around for year,s.Yes your family come first.Hope this is your last dog.

what a complete knob, how can you judge somone without knowing there situation?????? i also work hard and keep a dog and shoot etc etc

and find time to spend with the family, but i dont consider myself an hero like you........

good luck with the new job mate hope you can keep the dog, im sure you will do what you need to do,,,,,

I suppose its a question of priorites. Only the man himself can decide. The most important thing is to ensure the pup is looked after, if he cant do it then its better off elsewhere.

 

Personally i wouldnt move the pup on just because it no longer fitted in with my lifestyle. I would do whatever it takes to provide for my family and maintain my dogs. My wife is at uni full time, I work long days, spend one day of the weekend working on the new house and the other hunting plus whatever time i can get in the evenings. We manage to keep 4 dogs, 5 ferrets and the hens, its hard work and tiring but i wouldnt be rid of the dogs for the world.

 

Good luck to the pup and well done for getting a job. Hope it works out for you both

Never mate.I have good friend,s and family who would go out of there way to help me out.If i was,ant working i would never need to buy a dog.To give me a reason to get up in the morning. ? To many people useing work as an a way out.Or maybe you should get a dog with every Giro.
