I'm sorry but I don't think wives giving up a dog because it's hard to do it on their own while the husband is deployed is acceptable. It's been often said that raising a dog is similar to having a baby. To me that's like giving up one of your kids because It was frustrating to wake up in the middle of the night by myself to feed my son while my wife was at work. It's not the dogs fault that the wife or husband doesn't have the dedication to train the dog, walk the dog everyday so it doesn't tear up the house. Granted I can understand if you have kids it can get dificult at times. I'm a married man in the navy with a two year old. An APBT and a huahua mix. And have been on...(thinking) two, two week training duties. One 8 month long deployment. And my wife had nothing but minor problems, but nothing she could handle.

But if you have no dependents then sorry no excuses.
