my dog is 8, but i am afraid he is going to die soon. i went to high school in TN, then i moved to dallas last summer to work for a year. my dog came with me, but now i cant take him back. he has to stay here with my idiot brother-in-law. he lets him out of the house probably once or twice a week and bandit misses getting hit by a car usually by less than a few steps. we live 100 ft from a major road, so its only a matter of time before he runs out of luck, and i wont be here to save him.
my bro-in-law is 28 and is so irresponsible. he cant get it through his thick head to just take the extra second to check and see if my dog is right behind him before he opens the door. animals are like children...you have to be thinking about what they are going to get into or how they are going to hurt themselves when you arent paying attention. he is too lazy to realize that and my dog is going to be the one that will suffer because of it. i cant bear the thought of leaving him here because i know it is only a matter of time.
the second part of the problem is how he will be living the next few months. he is starting to age a little bit and dogs slowly have less and less tolerance to things such as weather and lack of water. it is really phucking hot in texas during the summer and i know for a fact my BIL will not let him inside. he doesnt work (hasnt had a job in his entire life, but thats a different story) and my sister does, so bandit will be outside from 8:00am to 6:30pm everyday for the next 3 months. that may not sound bad, but he has hardly lived like that...i have always let him inside. soon i am going to be gone and he will be outside all day in killer heat with no water. my BIL will not give him food or water, even if we ask him to do it because none of us are home to take care of it. he is such an a$$hole :|
im all torn inside whether or not i want to fork it out and pay for a place for him to stay in TN or take my chances leaving the poor thing here to be tortured by my BIL 🙁
