Poor staffy

i have just had someone e mail me on face book
asking if i could help rehome their staffy witch i don´t mind
i gave him some sites of Ware he could advertise
his staff
when i asked him why he was rehoming his dog as it was 8 years old
the reason he gave me was that his daughter has just had a baby
& its not fair the dog staying in the kitchen all the time because of the baby
why the dog has to stay in the kitchen because of a new baby
i will never know
wont that make the dog more jealous anyway ?
the dog is apparently very good with children so why put it in the kitchen ?
is it me or do other people feel the same way
to rehome a dog at 8 years old is very sad & sometime can´t be helped
but i think that this is just silly
