What to do about my dog?

some time ago we got a dog. his name is Rudy. he’s an old english sheep dog. well two years ago my mother died and, well the dog was hers. I’m never at home and when I am I’m always working on homework or looking for a job. My dad HATES Rudy and I hate to see him day after day sit and be bored. I love him but I can’t take responsibility for him either . I don’t know what to do and I feel terrible. he’s a happy healthy dog, but he needs someone to love him and give him the attention he deserves. What should I do??

Throughout the United States there are designated rescue groups that may be able to help. Here is one site I found dedicated to this breed. Maybe you can go to the left side of the site and pick a location of rescuers near you. Good luck. I hate to see a poor dog not be treated right oldenglishsheepdogclubofamerica.org/Committeepages/oesca_rescue.htm

Answer #2

I like the idea of a rescue group. But why not try putting an ad in the paper first and see if you can find him a home were you can check the people out first. I mean you want to give you Mom’s dog the best future for your Mom’s sake

Answer #3

I’m with magic…maybe contact the OES national rescue, and they can direct you to one closer to your area…This dog needs a loving home…and like magic said…you’re mom would appreciate it…I know I sure would!
