QOD

this has nothing to do with Memorial day…

A very good friend of mine asked me and my wife to watch his dogs when his brother in law isn’t over there.  We sort of have it arranged to let the dogs out and run around the yard when the bro in law ins’t home.  He keeps odd hours so sometimes the dogs are outside for several hours.  The weather has been ok so staying outside the for the most part hasn’t been bad.

Here is the issue, the first day the family was gone the guy left the dogs out on the deck, and it was raining the light rain all day.  Their bed got wet but luckily, they were able to lay under the overhang from the roof.  As soon as we got home from work, the dogs started barking basically telling us, “Hey motherfuckers!!! we are out here in the fucking rain!!! Come help us”  So, My wife let the dogs, put there soaking wet bed inside and they had to sleep on the an area rug in the kitchen the first night.

So now last night, at about 1:30 Am we heard the dogs barking from the deck again.  We went over and let the dogs inside, they had been out there all night apparently.  The Brother in law was home up until 8pm lighting off fireworks.  I even said hello to the guy earlier that night.  It boggled my mind why the dogs were out there at that hour of the night.  He wasn’t home when we let the dogs back in so God only knows if they would have been outside all night on their own.

There are some other minor situations that pretty much relate to the same issue.  Leaving the dogs penned up on the deck for several hours not able to go potty and what appears to be an overall lack of concern for the dogs well being at all. 

So my question is, if this person is a good friend of yours, do you tell him about what his brother in law is doing?
