Cold Ethyl 63 Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 Everywhere is the same all the rescues are bursting at the seems private and public alike.were getting loads of litters because people breed their dog then realise that having pups is not as easy as they thought if mums not interested and sign them over.Theres an influx of really old broken dogs as well and what i cant understand with some places is pts the young ones cos they came in 1rst and keep the old sick or nasty ones,Surely its not a nice life for an old aged dog to be in kennels ill and unhappy id pts the older ones and give the young ones a chance to be honest.I help rehome dogs all over the uk and some of the blatant lies told are a disgrace oh its a mastiff x when clearly its pit type x now if joe public gets that dog and doesnt know what he/she is doing its a disaster and the dog will suffer in the end dogs bouncing back cos no one thought to try and sort their issues before rehoming them then you get the staffy breeders my fav of all time i want rid of the bitch but not the pups or they get rid of one bitch and give another bith with pups the other pups as well and f**k her right up Quote Link to post Share on other sites
