Again, people don’t understand that lockdowns don’t last forever. Many of these who obtained a dog during the early days of lockdown, probably never owned a dog before. Didn’t plan ahead such as what would happen when able to work away from home etc

These are the sort of people who ignore the ‘dog is for life, not just for Christmas’.

Do you know of anyone who got a dog during lockdown last year and want to get rid of it or passed it on to friends or family that have dogs?
 
I nearly got another dog for lockdown... but not just for lockdown, but figured it'd be a good time to get them trained and that while I was home. I think people who get dogs and give them up are just heartless. How can you give up a dog?!
Were dog training places closed during lockdown? Plus dog trainers that come to the house or a neutral place such as parks, weren’t allowed to happen either.
 
People whose sole existence seems to revolve around keeping up appearances are a stain.

The worst case of this is babies. See a group of young women at my work, have two children each. The age gap of their eldest children is 6 months as the others conceived when they heard their friend is pregnant. Then repeat 2 years later.
