Yapping and others because the 87 year
man is not Fit enough to walk it. His Wife used to take it , she died. This old man goes to Hospital a few times each week that keeps him alive. His Resident Hall has new management that "Troubled" Dog must go I agree No Dog should not be STUCK in a home its not fair -- animal welfare, NO caller said anything on that Burnt foot hall near Lockerbie is the Location Ch5HD Live AM debate gave their name out at the end Last edited by arista; 15-02-2017 at 12:34 PM. |

They are saying he will Die without
his Dog. But feck sake the Dog needs walks Every Day. Why could no caller on the phone Understand , that? Its no wonder the dog is yapping at guests. It is Frustrated. |

Couldn't a family member or neighbour walk the the dog, it seems cruel to take the dog away but equally cruel that it is not exercised but it's not the mans fault or what about the new management sorting it out

His Wife used to pop in and take it , she died, They are all old in that place. No one has offered to walk the Frustrated Dog Cherie, thats why its in the papers and TV debates, Walking a dog every day is not easy , for some. it's not a little dog. Its gone past all that, anyway Management Demand the Dog goes or both go. I agree Last edited by arista; 15-02-2017 at 12:41 PM. |

Rather than issuing an ultimatum, the jobs worth management team should get off their arse to find a solution, I bet he pays a packet to stay there

Surely there's some kind dog-owner locally that could walk the old boy's dog? We're a sad society otherwise. People's dog are part of their family.

Nobody cares about the elderly which is a bit ironic as we will all be that person one day

Rubbish No one had a plan for that Dog if his Wife died. FACT As you get Older Cherie you plan things (set out if no one is there to help you etc., if you do not - then you are a mess and not wanted etc. Keep It Real. |

They could definitely find someone locally who would walk the dog for free, if they took the time to look.
Failing that... considering the insane cost of elderly residential care... they should just have one of the staff take it out for half an hour each day . These places cost thousands of pounds a month. |

Slow news day?
I agree with other that surely someone else can walk the dog. But if not then I agree it should probably be rehomed, as horrible as that would be for both the man and the dog. Mind if he has a large yard/garden, surely letting it out to run around for a few hours each day would also be fine?

'Luckily' she died a few days after that. But the whole ordeal was just horrific and opened my eyes a lot. I mean, one day there was a sickness bug going round the place and the staff just locked each patient into their rooms to contain it. I don't know if this is what homes usually do but that seems barbaric to me. a bunch of OAPs who need support being ill/scared and just get locked into a small room to deal with it themselves?

He deserves to keep his dog. Find him a walker rather than traumatising the dog by stripping it of its home and owner
I can't believe people still look at dogs as objects rather than parts of the family and how easy people can just say 'get rid of it, get it in a home' You wouldn't be saying that about a child if the situation was easily remedied, would you? |

Someone nearby would surely be willing to take the dog for a walk a few times a week.

I remember when kids used to look after the elderly.
My dad used to make me do errands for the old folk, like go to shop for them when it was snowing or icy. And mow their lawn and pick the weeds in the Summer holiday's ect. Do these sort of things still happen? |
