Excuses for Giving up a Dog
We have a 10-year-old dog and our 15-year-old son has suddenly become allergic and we need to find the dog a new home right away.
We are moving today and need to immediately place our 150 pound, 8-year-old dog.
We have dogs, had a baby and want to get rid of our dogs because we just can’t cope with the hair, drool etc. and a BABY (This one we hear on an average of 6 times a year)
We just got a brand new puppy and our old dog is having problems adjusting so we want to get rid of the old one right away.
Our little puppy has grown up and is no longer small and cute and we want to trade it in for a new model.
We need a volunteer to come to our home TODAY and pick up the dog we no longer want.
I have been feeding and caring for a “stray” for the last three years, are moving and suddenly determined it’s not our dog.
Our dog is sick and needs a vet and we don’t have the money plus we are leaving for vacation.
Our relative has died and we don’t want to care for their elderly dog because it doesn’t fit our lifestyle.
Our two-year old male dog is marking all over our house but we just haven’t gotten around to having him neutered.
We previously had an outdoor only dog and are calling because she is suddenly pregnant.
We are calling at 6 a.m. or 9:17pm to be certain you “round up a posse” to find a dog who is lost in the EVERGLADES”
Threaten to take your ten-year old dog to be euthanized because we cannot get there tomorrow to pick him or her up.
We want one of the PERFECTLY trained, housebroken, kid and cat friendly purebred dogs that you have and the dog must know ”leave it” but has to be under a year.
You want us to take your dog that has a slight aggression problem, i.e. has only bitten a few people and killed your neighbor’s cats.
Need a place to leave your dog while you are away on vacation just for a month, free of charge of course.
Christmas Eve or Easter morning and you want a puppy for your kids before your kids wake up.
You have bought your children a dog for Easter and it is now Christmas and no longer cute.
We have done “everything” to housebreak our dog and have had no success but we don’t want to crate the dog because it is cruel and usually not neutered!
You need an eleven year old dog you have since it was 2 months old gone because you just moved and have new floors which are getting full of scratches and dog hair
I have a new friend (love) who doesn’t like my dog and I need to get rid of the dog right away
I am getting a divorce and must get rid of the dog I have loved for years as I must downsize.
