Ash, I spent an hour reading this whole thread last week. I cried for Chewy, I cried for you, then I smiled, hoping that he was going to get the help he needed, but I didn't choose to post at that time. I think you have had a most mature attitude through this whole thing, understanding that people weren't pointing fingers at you so much as they were giving their passionate thoughts and hoping for Chewy to have a second chance. But as Aly and many others said, it would have been very difficult to place Chewy in a shelter or rescue group as he was a known biter. Most organizations are overflowing with dogs that don't have Chewy's problems. And I know your hands were tied, with your parents having the ultimate decision. Please don't be angry with them for having to make the decision they did. I know that they must love you a lot and wouldn't want to hurt you for the world. It had to be terribly hard for them.

Please know that I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I'm so proud of all the people here who tried to think of every way possible to help you out (Emily, Molly and Mike, Aly, others).

Chewy is safe and happy now, and you are left to grieve. We all grieve with you.
