How can we stop people from confining their dogs to the backyard to be ignored. If there is shelter and food, there is no law being broken, therefore not much we can do!!
I just adopted a 4 year old male Doberman and he might just be the sweetest dog I have ever had. When we got him he was 25 pounds underweight, his nails were very overgrown and he had difficulty walking, he had zero training and had no idea what affection was. We'd go to pet him and he had no idea what it was all about. Now that he is used to it he is very affectionate, and even with little or no socialization he loves every dog, person, child and cat he has met! In two weeks he has learned all his basic obedience commands and is nearly 100% housetrained!
It sickens me that a dog this wonderful spent 4 whole years neglected in someone's backyard and could have spent his whole life there. I am glad they got sick of him and sent him to rescue.
How can we stop this from happening to other dogs?
