Could you do this to your pup?

Saw this on someone’s IG story and was appalled at the idea of giving away a dog you’ve had for 8 years because you chose to have kids after and can’t handle it.

In my opinion, the dog would much rather remain with his family even with less attention than be given away, not understanding why or what happened. Devastating for the pup.

What does everyone think, is this the right decision?
