UHHH ... they're DOGS! Not kids. Comparing this to abortion is intellectually dishonest in the extreme.

On another note, moving in with your boyfriend should not include euthanising your dogs. Give them away or send them to the Humane Society (of course that doesn't preclude them being put to sleep).

People are too attached to their pets. THEY'RE ANIMALS, NOT PEOPLE!!!

No, it's not dishonest.
Serial killers start with animals, societies callous to the wellbeing, and life of animals are not among the most compasionate ones towards children, women and the elderly, either.
Things get worse little by little...

“Human babies are not born self-aware, or capable of grasping that they exist over time. They are not persons (therefore)the life of a newborn is of less value than the life of a pig, a dog, or a chimpanzee.” Peter Singer 1979

Excuse me. Pets are part of the family. They may not be right up there with my children, but they are close.

I'm very attached to my dog. She saved my first wife's life when she was 2 years old and after my wife finally died she mourned with the rest of us. I came home not long ago and found my back door kicked in and blood all over the kitchen floor she still had part of someone's pants leg. So I think I'll keep her around for a while she earned it.
