We had a dog from a rescue center two years ago, lovely old dog except he barked a lot, well his barking got so bad we decided we had to re home him as people that lived nere us was making comments about him.
He would bark from 5 pm to 10 pm at the TV, we tried putting him in the hall but he just carried on, then it got worse, he would bark first light but did not know what at, but I have made a list.
Planes that you could just see the white trail, post man, lorry's, tractors, motor bikes, any machine like lawnmower's, drills, saws, sanders, people walking buy outside of the garden.
We put most of this behaviour down to him being in kennels most of his life.
We would take him for long walks 2 to 3 times every day.
One day we was at our daughters and she could see how my wife was so upset with the barking, so she told us to leave him with her and she will find him a good home.
We reluctantly agreed but said we would not like him to go back in the kennels as he was so unhappy in there.
After four days my daughter phoned us and told us she had found him a nice home with an elderly couple in the country side.
We was please she had found him a nice place to go.
Two days later we was asked to puppy sit my daughters two puppy's at her home, so off we went but what did we find, in her garage was our dogs food and some of his toys.
We asked about our dog's new home and she got agitated and very abrupt with us.
That evening at home I started to look at re homing centers for a new dog for us as we have found it very empty with out our dog and, I found our dog, I could not believe it.
I can not bring my self to tell my wife, and I think I understand my daughter what she has done, but just don't know what to do for the best.
