Dude, don't joke about that. It's sad that these animals have to be away from their family. I'm a dog lover and I couldn't imagine living away from my dogs. It's a big stress on animals to relocate from a family home to an entirely new place with lots of strange people around and having to ride in elevators to get from place to place. Some smaller breeds of dogs take to it right away, because they were bred to be companion animals and are accustomed to "city life." Larger breeds of dogs like German Shepherds were originally bred for herding and protection. This kind of lifestyle is not really conducive to the breed, so there is a long period of adjustment that these dogs were not given. They were thrown into this new life. They are probably scared out of their minds, because their existence is thrown upside down and now they are separated from their family. I don't find this in any way funny or something to be celebrated, especially since the older of the two dogs is in the twilight of his life and now will probably die, separated from his family.
