Thread: A new addition...

  1. #31


    I'm sorry she didn't get along with Molly and Daisy, and that you had to take her back. Hopefully there is some other pup out there waiting for you, that will make a perfect new member to your family. Sorry this one didn't work out.

    Julie, I am so sorry.

    Hopefully you can find the dog that is perfect for you. We know there is one out there.

    Aww Julie, I'm sorry it didn't work out. I am sure that there is the dog that is meant to be with you, waiting for you.

    Its really hard for shelter workers to give you an exact assessment of dogs because the way they act in a shelter environment could be exactly opposite when they get into a home environment. They can give you their best judgments, but some things are just completely unpredictable.

    In dog groups, sometimes 3 can be a bad number, especially if all 3 are female and approximately the same age. There is a chance you guys could have worked through the struggles, but there is also a chance it would have never worked. You have to put your girls first and determine what you are willing and able to do. I think your mom made the judgement she was comfortable with and no one can blame her for that!

    I'm sorry it didn't work, but I'm sure there's another pup out there in need just waiting for you!

    Is it possible that next time you consider adopting, you could take Molly and Daisy with you to the shelter to meet the dog?

    Kia for the most part is friendly with dogs, but she's met a few that she didn't like.

    Aw, I'm so sorry. The right dog will come, don't worry. Just don't give up hope.

    You've never ridden a horse until you've fallen off.


    Adopt one until theres none.

    Awww I'm sorry to hear that it didn't work out But sometimes that happens. When we got our orange kitten before it didn't work out either and we had to bring her back. I felt very bad, and now I kind of regret it.
    But you just have to find the perfect dog. Hopefully you'll find another one soon!

    Aww, Julie, I'm so sorry. Maybe some other time. I wish we could get another doggy, too. It sucks, but we can't. I hope we can soon, though. Give Molly and Daisy a big hug and a treat for me!

    I'm sorry to hear things didn't work out but you do need to find a dog that's great for you, your family, and Daisy & Molly! I wish you the best in your future doggie searches. I know how much you hated to have to pass her up but you did what you had to do.

    Thanks guys.
    I think I'll hold off on the doggie search for a while; or I'll just wait until he/she comes to me, whenever that may be.

    Kimmy, I'm not sure if that's possible to do. I could always ask, but I'm pretty sure this particular shelter only wants to see dogs that are being brought in.

    Aww Julie

    It sounds like the other dog may have been fine until she got to your home and then began to establish her territory. Daisy and Molly both don't seem like the territorial types so they were afraid of her aggressive behavior. Their fear probably reinforced her feeling of dominance and her need to establish a heirarchy. That is my best guess.

    I'm sorry that things didn't work out, but I'm mostly glad that none of the dogs were hurt, especially Molly or Daisy.
