Just in case you thought you have heard it all – well folks- I have a new one- even for me, who has been writing about animal rescue for nearly 20 years.
Honey is a returned senior dog from a mega adoption event in Orange County, Florida, and she was returned in Tampa to the Hillsborough County shelter. She had been at the shelter after originally being surrendered after five years because her family had been “allergic.” Now she has been returned for being “boring.”
citizen adopted Honey from mega adoption event. They are returning the dog due to the dog not being the right fit for their household. they felt the dog isn’t very interactive and doesn’t have much of a personality like they had hoped.
And just as sad, the family returning Honey stated their son grew very attached to Honey even if she was an “older dull dog.” Their youngest daughter however, had hoped for a more playful friend.
The family also said Honey didn’t eat much while in their care and showed little interest in treats. She spent most of her day sleeping, and showed little interest in toys or playing, but was quiet and calm.
Honey is pretty close to a perfect dog; she is ten years old and weighs 42 pounds. She is housebroken and walks well on a leash and is heartworm negative. Someone taught her basic obedience commands. She is good with women, men and children.
