First let me tell you that a dog deserves to be taken care of by its gaurdian, be that a home in the country or city. It doesn't matter where you live to a dog as long as you spend time with the.
>From the sounds of it you may be just what he needs. A dog would much rather stay with his family than to be passed off to someone else. Especially a dog like this, it will be very unnerving for him to be placed in another home and have to learn everything all over again. A big backyard is no prerequisite for getting or keeping a dog. You took on this dog and you should give him the best life that you can. If that means walking him, then you walk him. You cannot turn him into a rescue or shelter without telling the people the 100% truth about him. And there is a good chance he would be euthanized at a shelter, now thats not a fair life for him. There are some very good reasons to place a dog but (just can't fit him in) isn't one. Sherri --- Todd and Kim Phillips <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi!
