Tired of seeing ATX ‘influencers’ rehome their dogs…

Am I the only one tired of seeing ATX ‘influencers’ talk about rehoming their dogs? I watched this tik tokers video yesterday where she explained that she moved from NYC to Austin. Originally she was renting a house in Austin and then moved into an apt and thereafter decided to rehome her dog due to her living into an apt. I just don’t understand it. Didn’t she live in an apartment in NYC with this dog? Why move the dog across the country if she wasn’t sure she could keep it?

Im especially irritated because Texas (especially Austin) is already overflowing with dogs that need homes, so it’s hard for me to understand the “it just didn’t work out” situation. I also think what bothers me most is seeing influencers make these kinds of decisions and then immediately go back to their normal content, sponsorships, etc. Like… your dog isn’t an accessory you can give away when your living situation changes. Anyways, just a little rant.
