Most people see their pets as a member of their family. If someone you were dating asked you to choose between them and your family member, you’d probably immediately show them the door.
But for some reason, there are people out there who think it’s appropriate to ask their loved ones to choose between them and a pet.
One boyfriend had the best response when he was given this ultimatum. He decided to try and re-home his girlfriend instead of getting rid of his dog.
The Roanoke Virginia beagle owner decided to pen a hilarious Craigslist ad seeking “any willing home” for his “purebred.”
He placed the following ad in the “community/pets” section of the website:
“My girlfriend does not like my beagle dog Molly. SO I have to rehome her,” he wrote. “She is a purebred from a wealthy area and I have had her 4 years. She likes to play games. Not totally trained. Has long hair so she’s a little high maintenance, especially the nails, but she loves having them done.”
It seems as if Molly’s dad is talking about Molly, but readers soon learn that this isn’t the case.
“Stays up all night yapping but sleeps while I work. Only eats the best, most expensive food,” he continues. “Will NEVER greet you at the door after a long day or give you unconditional love when you’re down. Does not bite but she can be mean as hell!”
It actually sounds like a dog that would be a nightmare to adopt.
Rehome… that’s a really nice way of saying dumped! We still just can’t understand how someone could even ask that of another person.
“The dog should not be the one leaving. She’s your child not just a dog. The trauma you do to that baby is c.r.u.e.l and despicable. Girlfriends come and go but baby’s stay forever,” wrote one person in the comments on Happiest.
“I give you six months with the girlfriend what are you going to feel like then about giving up your baby. It shows who will wear the pants in your life. If she can’t accept you and your baby you need to think twice before you continue a relationship with someone so c.r.u.e.l.”
We hope that he and Molly find a new girlfriend soon! Please SHARE this with your friends and family.
