btw, sadly my email was ignored

Sounds so familiar! I have a friend who wants a husky. He has not owned a dog before, works minimum of 5days a week, has no garden only a tiny yard. Oh, and his girlfriend is scared of dogs (she wouldn't stroke Toby even when he was a little pup). He just says it will be so cute as a puppy that she learn to love it and someone will pop over to let it out during the day. I've copied the relevant posts to send to him

Not really, apart from try to make my sister see that it would be so much easier for her (especially since she has 4 kids under the age of 10) and far better for the dog if she rehomed it to an appropriate home. I know her OH (who technically owns the dog) wants to get rid of it but I dont think my sister wants to admit defeat.

I'm not close to my sister and I very rarely see her. I offered to take the dog to training classes (I would give up my time, she would pay) when it was younger and she declined. My sister even suggested we go for a walk with all dogs on Xmas day but backed out at the last minute (typical of her).

I'm not in a position to take the dog off her hands and if she is not abusing it under the terms of the law and wont see sense then there is very little I can do. I simply dont have the time to walk the boxer myself, my own dogs take priority (I couldnt cope with an extra dog that has so many behavioural issues in addition to my own 3 plus Flynn wouldnt tolerate the her).

It's a frustrating situation.

Not even showing the pics to the girlfriend?? its her house and furniture too?
