I understand having a love and passion for the animals in our lives, but I
can't quite see taking it to the extent of, if it came down to a choice,
divorcing your husband before rehoming a dog. I love my two dogs and one cat
very much and would do whatever I could to assure their health and happiness.
But I'd be lying if I said they were as or more important or dear to me than my
husband or my children. This will probably get me alot of flaming, but I just
never got someone placing their pet at the same tier as their own flesh and
blood. Close, yes but not quite on the same level.

Good post Shell. I could have and should have responded nicer to the original
post. I got upset that $$ seemed more important than a forever good home.

Hi Donna, Â This is exactly the way I feel about mine ... I would divorce
my dh before finding a home for my pooches if they had a "problem" or there
were hard times ... and I automatically assume everyone is the same, and it
could never change for anyone - like my friend. I never in a million years
would have thought my friend would have rehomed my pooches sister, but here
she is doing it ... I guess under enough stress people will do what they have
to - she's doing what she has to do to just preserve herself and a home for
herself and her two kids during her divorce and it doesn't include pets right
now. I haven't been able to say, "hey, one chi wouldn't kill you" - because
I know she loves that dog more than anything in the world other than her kids
- so I know it's killing her. She's renting a "house" so I know she "could"
take her chi - I don't get it and it's breaking my heart. Â Â Anyway, we
don't know what "things" that Lisa mentioned are that she's going through -
maybe just as hairy as my friend. She deserves the benefit of the doubt,
and kindness, I'm sure it will be difficult to give her puppy up - I couldn't
do it. Â Â Also, there are people who just dump their chi at a rescue or
shelter - she's doing the right thing and finding her baby a home. Â Â If it
was me making an adoption fee, I'd decide on an amount and make it a
donation to the local humane society to help homeless animals ... but I can't
give a baby up so it wouldn't be me! I would also need references, a home
visit, their parent's names and addresses, a two week trial homing, and
weekly visits for the next month - LOLOLOL! We still visit our breeder
though - it's their doggie "grandma" after all and they like to see the
other chis there. Â Shell
