So, there isn't really a particularly good place for this post, but I need to vent about it, and all of you are animal lovers so I know you'll understand.

I have been looking online at all of the rescue sites for a friend for Blue (www.ratbonerescues.com, www.ratterrierresq.com, www.dogsindanger.com, and local sites, which I shouldn't be doing because I still have at least 3 months) and for a lot of the dogs, it says "we are moving and can't take our dog along."

Now, I don't know about you guys, but as my boyfriend and I are looking for a place, if we see "no pets" it's automatically crossed off of our list. It's like, Blue is our child (we are 21 and 22 with no human children) and so is my cat Gary. We would NEVER move ANYWHERE where we couldn't take our animals.

I just hate how some people think of their animals as disposable, and don't seem to have much of a care. There are circumstances where you may need to get rid of your pets, but I don't think that is one of them unless you were forced to live in a place with no pets, not if you just choose it! UGH.

It absolutely drives me crazy.

OMG!  How can you have a dog for 12 years and then say I'll put it to sleep because my new husband doesn't like the dog?  OMG!  I'm just like...speechless....well not really...but some of the things I'm saying can't be typed on here!  When I remarried 13 years ago, I had a 12 year old Maltese who had recently gone blind.  She was still very active and she was my BABY!  If my husband had said...I don't want your dog to move to NY (I lived in NC at the time) I would have said...ok...then I won't move either.  When I finally did have to put her to sleep (5 years later for medical reasons) it broke my heart and was the hardest thing I've ever done. 

I don't know how people can be so heartless.  I agree...some people should not be allowed to have pets.
