🤔I saw a comment yesterday about not coddling dogs; they're dogs yes & I agree w/that statement(sorry I forgot who said it; weigh in if you); I understand the let dogs be dogs stuff.
I believe this case is a bit different; this dog has been domesticated & I assume it couldn't survive long on it's own unless it's humans were around. Is it the humans fault? Maybe.
I would never leave my 3 dogs at home in that type of situation. On a regular day, one where conditions aren't dire, I'd leave em
