I don't think it should be a battle between the 2 parties regardless of who is being petty. It should be about the dog... and only about the dog. Whats best for the dog?!! Clearly the dog is dearly loved by both parties. Do you want to let the dog live its happy loving life in Australia where the weather is more kind ALL year round and the dog doesn't have to go through the whole transportation process for what, a couple years in Dubai before being shipped off the the next location you move to? Or put the dog through the whole transportation process, bring it here, will still be loved dearly but for most of the year the weather is not desirable (definitely not as nice as Oz) then put the dog through the whole transportation process AGAIN when you decide to move on to the next country? THEN when you finally decide to move back to Oz the poor thing has to sit in Quarrantine for 6 months or so? Its hard but I think whats best for the dog is to leave it in Oz. I have seen first hand pets being transported by airlines and yes, its all done well and professional... but I have seen dogs very very unhappy and stressed behind the scenes in the baggage area... broke my heart. and yet we have people on here (EW) wishing to rehome their pets rather than transport them to another country, and they are held up for ridicule, villified and called every type of irrisponsible monster under the sun for not wishing to take their beloved pooch or moggy with them. Are we now to give them every compassion because after all they may just not have it in them to transport their animals and subject them to such cruelty? This thread is about this this situation... not about anyone or everyone else. I am responding to OP with MY PERSONAL OPINION and only taking THIS situation into account. At this present time I have not and will not give any other particular situation a thought. Se has asked our opinions and I have given mine. I respect yours even though it may be different to mine. Now please respect my right to voice my opinion. Thank you and am now done with this thread. OP will make their own decision, just hope its about the DOG and not the petty mind games being played. Sorrry shellly, but how incredibly ridiculous to get so upset and personal (mind games???!!! WHAT?) over a discussion. I do have an opinion that obviously differs from yours quite radically, fair enough. No one has said anywhere that an opinion cannot be voiced? Why is mine so terribly obnoxious to you? In fact, don't answer that, I don't really care. .What I am trying to do here for the OP is give her many different veiwpoints to concider in what is a horrible situation. I sincerely do not want her bombarded with oh poor dog, poor bob, and feel pressureed into making a decision that may not be right for her and her family. is that ok with you?
