Bear with me. Its a bit long but It is about animals, or rescue animals specifically.

So we have a rescue staffy we've had for 3 years and have been looking for a friend to join him.
This weekend we found the perfect friend. Another Staffy, quite small, but beautiful and with a great personality. And both dogs got on really well.

So today we went back to let the two meet again and get more comfortable.
And we find all hell has broken loose.

Apparently the new dog was brought in by the female owner who is splitting up from her husband so wanted to dump the dog and she then told the husband that she'd had the dog put down!

So a week later the bloke has found out what's going on and has reclaimed his dog.

I don't have an issue with him having his dog back, although we had set our hearts on him joining the family so we're all upset, but what really gets my goat is that people exist that actually would use a pet as a weapon against their partner in that way.
Some people need putting down.

Sorry just needed to rant and couldnt do it at home as my wife is upset by the whole episode.

So a week later, we've had a call from the rescue centre.
After all this the owner has said he doesn't want the dog and has signed him over to the rescue.

So as from next week we will have our second Staffy! Beyond ecstatic.

My wife promptly burst into tears, as she us unable to have children so dogs are her babies - and mine to be honest.

Been a roller coaster week but so looking forward to having two boys in the house.
