Interesting how this thread has developed into Chinese Whispers! I haven't said that my neighbours are horrendous owners, they are very nice people! My OP said I'm concerned how they will provide for the social needs of their new puppy given that they are out of the house alot. I haven't said anyone else is a bad owner for that matter. They haven't asked lots of questions, just the one about the boarding kennels. I do know that the puppy is on his own in the day during the week. I can hear his distressed cries and howls when I get home from work at lunchtime. I'm sure all you dog lovers out there would be upset by this too. As for we do speak to them (and knowing where they work and when they go out or on holiday is hardly intimate or private!) Hence my offer to look after pup for part of the day, which has so far been declined. Thank you Shazzy that was the point I was trying to make. Sorry if anyone misunderstood me.

Happy Birthday Flyn! Fab piccies xxx

Yes, there's nothing wrong with kennels, but it seems that not only will the pup be left when they are working but also during their holidays off work. I've used kennels in the past but our dogs come on holiday with us now. What a shame to be thinking of packing him off so soon rather than enjoying spending time with him.

Thanks for replies, the two books I lent were the only ones I had to hand with any kind of explaination of how a puppy may feel in its new home. I just thought that at least they might give them a bit of an insight to something they knew very little about. Anyway, (thanks ReikiAnge) I have just ordered The Perfect Puppy book off Ebay. It should arrive next few days. I'll take it round and tell them my sister has lent it. Maybe in a few days, they'll be seeing the reality of having a puppy and might take me up on my offer of help. I'm positive that they so far haven't made arrangements for family to help, in fact the parents of the girl are 'anti-dog' which is why she's not been able to have a dog previously. I know they will try their best to look after him but I don't think they realise what a commitment they've taken on. Hope they prove me completely wrong! Didnt mean to offend the people who have similar lifestyles to my neighbours! It isn't their lifestyle that worries me, just that they so far seem to think that the puppy will slot straight into their lives with no disruption to them. They were asking my OH earlier where there are boarding kennels for when they go on holiday
