[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would tell your relative this in a jokey, low key way.  Who knows - maybe they would love to rehome the dog especially to a loving family![/quote]

I wouldn’t even joke, I would straight out say if they are interested, your family fell in love and would love to take him in. [/quote]+1 [/quote]

+1 This is some kind of pathology on this board that women have where they can’t be direct. “We really fell in love with Bozo this summer, if you would like us to be his permanent home we would love that.”[/quote]

+1 but you may scare the owner off - you should mitigate it with how you'd be happy to take him a couple days during the week and whenever they go away - so you don't just sound grasping.[/quote]

Yup. If you had been dog sitting my dog and straight out said you wanted to keep him, I’d be freaked out and you’d probably never see him again.[/quote]

Anyone who just expects someone to dog sit for MONTHS and not become attached to the dog is a fool. [/quote]

Anyone who thinks they can just keep someone else’s dog because they want to is out of touch with reality.[/quote]

That's not the situation - the owner left their dog for an extended period of time for whatever reason. They shouldn't have a pet if this is the norm for them; if they were a loving pet owner they would see that their pet is happy and beloved and do what's best for him.[/quote]

Not your dog. Not your call.[/quote]
