Deadbeat Dog Dad

Like any other breakup, separation or divorce, dogs are just as sensitive as the children and can be quite affected by this ending of a relationship. They will never understand and you can never explain what has happened and what will happen. If you’re lucky, the “Dog Dad” still wants to be a loving and financially supporting person in their lives, but many times this does not happen and this is what is called a “Deadbeat Dog Dad.” A “Deadbeat Dog Dad” is a dad that willingly, carelessly, distastefully and hurtfully neglects any emotional stability, housing, healthcare and overall financial support for the animals that he was a partner in bringing into a once loving home. For many men, it’s “out of sight, out of mind!” A “Deadbeat Dog Dad” is also a person that gives up on his dog for no good reason and gives his dog away, drops his dog at the shelter or dumps his dog on the street when he no longer wants “that” responsibility. They have their own internal clocks and continue to mope and wait as the days go by, with nothing that can be done to make them feel better, or make them understand. Eventually, your doggy may give up on the hope of his or her daddy coming home, but this doesn't mean that he will ever be forgotten. With all of this occurring, it is a heartless situation for the dog, because once that person is gone, those habits, routines and rituals that were once dear to their hearts, can never be emotionally satisfied or replicated.
