Virginia Man Tries to Rehome Dog(-Disliking Girlfriend) on Craigslist

Molly Beagle Craigslist Roanoke

“FREE TO ANY WILLING HOME” is the title of an ad posted on Craigslist earlier this week by someone in Roanoke, Va.

“My girlfriend doesn’t like my beagle Molly, so I have to rehome her,” the ad begins — as the blood of all dog-loving readers begins to boil.

“She is a purebred from a wealthy area and I have had her 4 years. She likes to play games. Not totally trained.”

By this point, most readers are really getting angry at the monster who posted this ad. But wait, there’s more!

“Has long hair, so she’s a little high maintenance, especially the nails, but she loves having them done. Stays up all night yapping but sleeps while I work. Only eats the best, most expensive food. Will NEVER greet you at the door after a long day or give you unconditional love when you’re down. Does not bite but she can be mean as hell!”

So what the heck is this story doing in the Awww category instead of Grr, where it belongs?

Read on.

“So … anyone interested in my 30 year old, selfish, wicked, gold-digging girlfriend? Come and get her! Me and my dog want her re-homed ASAP!!”

Ha ha ha! This dog lover’s Beagle isn’t going anywhere. It’s his girlfriend who’s getting the boot.

This clever ad is deservedly going viral after it was posted on Reddit. So far its writer has not been identified, but for you dog-lovin’ single ladies in the Roanoke area, he sounds like a real catch.
