We see a lot of this in Hartford. People have pets - mostly cats and dogs - they get tired of them and "pass them along". It really gets my goat. One of my neighbors had two dogs in the summer. One was a very sweet little thing that had been "passed along" to them. I met them last week and they didn't like the fact that the dogs had to be walked for bathroom purposes! They "passed along" both of their dogs to god-knows-who. There's a lot of very ignorant people in Hartford.
