[QUOTE="Jabberwockey, post: 709268, member: 18238"] Sorry I didn't respond sooner but just noticed this post. Seeing things like this sickens me. Not your actions, but the fact that others behaved so irresponsibly by abandoning their "pets" rather than do the right thing and honor the commitment they made when they first got the animal. Having grown up in the country, I've seen this a lot over the years and anyone who has lived in the country can verify it. People from the city (Yes, HUGE overgeneralization here. Sorry.), like most others, tend to get pets based on current trends which means that more often than not, they end up with a pet way to large for their small apartment. Instead of being responsible and trying to rehome the animal, a lot of the time people will drive out to the country and drop the animal off near a farm. The common misconception is that the farmer/country dweller with the large yard wont mind taking care of one more dog. They already have so many after all. The reality is that the animal probably wont be taken in by anyone and will become feral and, as noted in adad's original post, will become a danger not only to local wildlife but to human beings as well. And Copa, I haven't been posting much lately. [/QUOTE]
