I'm at my Grandma's house this week. Her neighbors used to have a male pit bull-type dog tied up out in the yard. He disappeared. They also have two tom cats and recently introduced a female calico (who is probably not spayed). Anyway, now they have a female beagle tied up. Apparently she doesn't have a name, even though they have had her for weeks.
My uncle has been working on the house here and he's gotten attached to the beagle. He named her. The owners were planning to take her back to the pound. So my uncle is going to take her.
I feel bad for the dog. She's tied up there with nothing for shelter other than a couple of bushes. Any time I go over there to pet her she rolls over on her back and wants her belly rubbed. I checked on her today and she seems to have a cough/nose thing going on. No wonder being stuck out in the rain the past couple of days. In my experience usually that can be cleared up with antibiotics.
I'm glad my uncle is taking her. He can provide her a good home and it would certainly be better than what she has.
Why do people get dogs on a trial basis? Shouldn't you try harder to make it work? Some people just seem to think that you rent dogs rather than own them.
It's not so much that she is outside. I can deal with that. She doesn't seem to have adequate shelter and she rarely gets attention. They didn't even name her.
