I hear one dog owner said, "I rebuilt my house. My dog doesn't become new interior design, so now I don't need him."!
And I know a new terrible story now. --- One owner didn't take his dog for a walk for long. One day he had a leash, and his dog was very pleased. Soon they arrived...at Hokenjyo(dog shelter).
(Only a few dogs can return to their home, or new owners adopt them, but the rest --- more than a hundred thousand in a year --- end their life there.
Of course, most of owners in Japan love their dogs, they live with theirs in their house, or they wish it at least.)
