BOISE, Idaho (CBS2) — Animal shelters in the Boise area are seeing more and more people surrendering their pets because of their changing housing situation.
People working at those shelters say it’s heartbreaking to see.
“That should never be a decision that you have to make to leave behind a piece of your family but we understand that that is the circumstances right now and that is reality,” Lauryn Essary with West Valley Humane Society said.

I feel fortunate that we own our home and don’t face that decision.
