Furious With My Mother! Should I Forgive Her? What Should I Say? (Dog Related)?

Question by Rogue Bullies: Furious with my mother! Should I forgive her? What should I say? (Dog related)?
Okay so my mother is not the best pet owner. Her and her boyfriend got a black lab/doberman mix awhile back. Well ever since they got the dog she has not taken once bit of advice from me and has not trained nor exercised the dog in the correct manner.

Well just a few months ago her boyfriend was diagnosed with a serious form of cancer. They have been going through a lot lately and she decided that it wasn’t the best idea to have a young dog so she wanted to re-home it. I told her I would help her find a home for it, but she never put in the effort of telling me what to put on the ad etc.

Well just last week the neighbors called animal control on them and said that the dog was on a short leash tied up. The pound came out to see what was going on and her moronic boyfriend told them to just take the dog! Now my mother is not going to go get it. The dog is just a plain black dog so basically it wont get adopted. They pretty much just condemned the poor thing to death due to there ignorance.

Now my question, as a dog lover how do I handle this? In one hand she is my mother and has given me life and in another she has mistreated her own dog and shows she is 100% irresponsible. I am very upset with her and I didn’t even call her on her birthday. She called my dad and asked if I was mad at her and I told him YES! I know they are going through a hard time right now, but its not an excuse to leave the dog outside on a short chain and then come and have the pound pick it up.

My mother is a really bad alcoholic as well. She really hasn’t been there for her kids much. This just put the icing on the cake for me and her! What should I do? If she calls what should I say? How should I deal with this? How would you?

Thanks for reading! Sorry I know its long.
I don’t live with her. I have my own house and live with my boyfriend and our 2 dogs. She never socailized the dog so it wont get along with my bullies and there would be no where for me to put it.

To be honest, there isn’t a thing you can do. The deed with the dog is done. Do you live with her? If not, then you should go re-adopt the dog if there is still a chance.
Your mother is an alcoholic, I am sorry for that by the way, but maybe you could convince her into going to a Psychiatrist for her benefit.
