My wife & I have 3 children and our "first born" was of the four legged variety. There is NO WAY we'd let our Sophie's medical care lapse just to save money. She is family. I don't know how those who can abandon a pet can sleep at night. But at our house we sleep just fine...even with a snoring bulldog at our feet. :) Here Here!

Makenzee was given to me almost 10 years ago now because the person that had him couldn't get him potty trained. He was a tiny little thing. He is my baby, and I would do anything to make sure that he is ok and well care for. I don't know how someone could just leave their pet behind. There are so many shelters out there that can offer them a good home until a more permanent home can be found. I couldn’t agree with you more.

My animals always come first and I would never let them do without, even if that means that I have to do without something that I want. My animals are my children and they deserve the best that I can provide. I have never understood how people could treat their pets so badly. I don't think they would treat their child that way so they shouldn't treat their animals that way either. I feel VERY strongly about this!! There are alot of people that should never be allowed to have animals...I wish there were some way to regulate this! I couldn’t agree more, I feel the exact same way.

I couldn't imagine abandoning her. People need to give getting a pet a little more thought before they commit to that relationship. Because with my Sadie dog, it's for better or for worse, even if she is cutting into my bottom line.
