I agree with you. I vote for the dog. The dog stays. People like this make me angry also.. they are so quick to get rid of their pet just because there are a few problems to work out that involve a little time to train & change behaviors. I feel sorry for the other 4 dogs if they are this quick to "dump" poor Freya. Thanks to YOU for helping save all our eskie friends.
