I just had to post this on here - it was listed on a US site, not sure what it's equivalent would be, but people place things on there. This should be printed and placed in some rescues, I think!!
Please help! After two long years of being on a waiting list for a dog, we have been notified by breed rescue that, at long last, our number has come up and ... WE ARE HAVING A PUPPY!
We must get rid of our children IMMEDIATELY because we just know how time consuming our new little puppy is going to be and it just wouldn't be fair to the children. Since our little puppy will be arriving on Monday we MUST place the children up for adoption this weekend!
They are described as:
One male -- his name is Tommy, Caucasian (English/Irish mix), light blonde hair, blue eyes. Four years old. Excellent disposition. He doesn't bite. Temperament tested. Does have problems with peeing directly in the toilet. Has had chicken Pox and is current on all shots. Tonsils have already been removed. Tommy eats everything, is very clean, house trained and gets along well with others. Does not run with scissors and with a little training he should be able to read soon.
One female -- her name is Lexie, Caucasian (English/Irish mix), strawberry blonde hair, green eyes quite freckled. Two years old. Can be surly at times. Non-biter, thumb sucker. Has been temperament tested but needs a little attitude adjusting occasionally. She is current on all shots, tonsils out, and is very healthy and can be affectionate. Gets along well with other
little girls and little boys but does not like to share her toys and
therefore would do best in a one child household. She is a very quick learner and is currently working on her house training. Shouldn't take long at all.
We really do LOVE our children so much and want to do what's right for them. That is why we contacted a rescue group. But we simply can no longer keep them. Also, we are afraid that they may hurt our new puppy.
I hope you understand that ours is a UNIQUE situation and we have a real emergency here! They MUST be placed into your rescue by Sunday night at the latest or we will be forced to drop them off at the orphanage or along some dark, country road. Our priority now has to be our new puppy.

Very good indeed! I congratulate the author :)

Brilliant. Should be made widely available, although I still wonder if it would make people think any more than they do.

Can you imagine there will be people who will find this offensive and be upset reading this? Now this is a chance for them to put themselves in pets paws for a change. :P

Absolutely brilliant and should be put up in all rescues and vets, although not a joking matter, it might make new "owners" think about what they're doing before taking on pets.

That is great - maybe it will make a few people think! Mind you, there were times when ours were young when I would willingly have rehomed them :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

:rofl: :rofl: Genius! Should be issued to anyone thinking of taking on a pet of any kind....if only more people had such insight!

Excellent stuff!
Sad that so many people regard animals as being possessions, and having no emotions or fears. I would imagine such a type would think the notice just silly and they probably wouldn't get the message :(
I'd sooner have my cats than a child any day! What I find ridiculous is, when looking for a house to rent, almost all take children, but almost none take pets. I wrote to an agents once pointing out that my cats are better behaved and cleaner than most children!! The thing is ... it's true!!
