Labradoodle & Goldendoodle Forum

I was standing in school just now waiting for my children when one of the moms that I know started talking about another school's auction she had attended last year.  Apparently, a doodle was one of the items to bid on and this woman 'won' the doodle.  When I asked her how much she adored him, she told me...wait for it...prepare yourself...that she had to bring it to a shelter because they were not prepared for how big and rowdy it would be and how much time and energy it would take to raise a doodle.  Knowing the answer before I asked it but being a glutton for punishment, I asked her how she could have bid on a dog that she had no idea how to raise.  Apparently, she thought he was 'just the cutest little thing' and that was enough. When I asked how her children handled their loss, she said that it was not a problem because daddy bought them another dog right away so 'no harm, no foul.'  Truthfully, while I pray the dog is in a great forever home, I know that just about any place else would be better than being with woman!  I am still trying to process this on so many levels.

The saddest part of the story is that this woman was so clueless. The dog I hope was better off in the end.

We live in a disposable society for the most part, people get married they fall out of love, they dispose of it, They get a cute puppy, it doesn't fit the life style they get rid of it and turn around and get something else, I can't  stand it. I am sure that cute little doodle got another home. I sure hope so, I feel sorry for the dog they currently have, what are they going to do with that dog when it doesn't fit their schedule. I would have had a hard time not laying into her...
