Need some reassurance

ILoveBoys

And yes, it's about my dog...AGAIN. (Sorry!) I can't stop crying thinking about her being there. I want to go get in the car and tell the people there was a mistake and we want to take her home. I (stupidly) looked her up on the website and she was up for adoption already. She looks so sad in her picture sitting in the corner. I feel like we made the world's biggest mistake. MH says that he's not going to talk about her with me anymore bc it makes me upset, and we made our decision and need to stick to it. She's all I can think about.....

WOW. I'm sorry, this makes me sad just reading!

I would die without my doggies, so I'm not help. Sorry =/

I'm like you. Somehow for a moment I was convinced it was the right thing to do. I thought it was what MH thought was best?? I don't know. Now I regret it. It's like losing a child.

I totally understand your concerns about biting, etc. What a tough call. If you continue through the day being sad, maybe you can talk to DH about it more and what you could do? If anything?

Maybe you could go drop off a donation at the shelter to make you feel better? I'm sure it's hard, but ultimately the safety of your children has to come first.

Thanks....   If we wanted her back the fee is $150. We def. can't afford that extra.   So it really looks like we're stuck where we are. I think I'm just selfish. She really wasn't happy here anymore. I think that's part of the reason she acted that way in the end. And the people at the place told MH that she's probably closer to 9-10. (we thought she was 5-6 bc the place we got her from said she was 3 and we had her for 2 yrs). So she was an older dog. *shrugs* It is what it is I guess. All I know is it will be a long time until I own another pet.

I'm so sorry you are having to go through this. I really think you did the right thing though. You cant risk your kids and she wasnt happy anymore. I'll be thinking about you. I hope this gets easier. (((HUGS)))

((HUGS))) sorry - that is really an awful place to be.  I would not do well either. It was the right thing to do - especially since you said you tried to find other people to take her. 

She wasn't happy, she was a threat to your children.  It is SO awful, but it was the right thing to do.

(I have 4 dogs, so I get it).
