I have seen that before and it is so true. I volunteer for a rescue and I can not tell you how many emails we get on a daily basis where families want to rehome their dog that "they love oh so much and this is the hardest thing they have to do". We get the same reasons all the time.
We are having a baby
We are moving
We just got a puppy and our 6 year old dog does not like him/her
We just got new carpet and the puppy is peeing all over the house
I could go on forever. While there are some families out there that really have valid reasons for rehoming, most just do not want to continue the responsibility for caring for the dog.

Why do people do this?!?
I cried when i walked throught the dog shelter. The people who dump those sweet little buddies deserve a penalty to not be allowed ownership of any animal again.

Very few things actually bring tears to my eyes, and that story did it....thanks, a lot.
At least my dog figured out I had tears and came to give me a kiss!

I love it! It made me cry.
People need to realize that animals are not disposable and that hit it spot on.
