Feel bad...

[LorraineO]

Well I wont be posting for a few days I dont think,, I have a few things going on in my life with DOGS and things arent going well... Plus I feel if I open up,, I might get jumped on as it were,, so I will be the coward and say not much for now until I feel braver....... but I will check in on things for sure!!!

Hope you all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

Lorraine O and family

I'm also pretty sure I know what might have happened I hope everything will be alright...

I have a feeling I know what might be going on and I'm sure it is very upsetting. You hang in there and you and your family have a very Merry Christmas!!

Just remember sometimes the best thing, isn't the easy thing...and you have to do what you fell best.

We are here when you are ready to share.

Lorraine I have not been around a lot lately and don't know all the particulars of what has been going on, I do recall seeing that you were planning to add another dobie to your family. I'm sure no matter what, you will do as you feel is best for all involved, and I hope you will feel you can share your problem without fear of being judged.

Whatever is going on, my thoughts and prayers are with you {{Hugs}}

Lorriane, A very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family!

[Kfamr]

I do believe I know what has happened, and If it's so, please don't feel afraid to say. Things happen.

[caseysmom]

I have no idea what happened but you seem like a very caring person and I would not judge you. I hope it all works out and you can enjoy the holidays.

Hey Lorraine,

If you need any advice on dog issues, you can email me if you want. I won't breath a word of what is happening to anyone. I counsel people at the shelter on tons of issues surrounding adding a new dog to the household. I'm sure no one will jump on your back if you explain your situation on here.

Anyway, my email addy is [email protected] in case you need advice on anything!

That's so sweet of you Aly Maybe a little intervention is what's needed right now

[LorraineO]

Sigh,,, youre all very sweet to say all those nice things,,,,, I really appreciate it so much.....

Ajay has some serious issues with other dogs and we just dont feel he is truly suited to a house with other animals... at least not ours. Lucy is simply becoming mor stressed out at his prescense in the house,, and we cant get them within 8 ft on loose leashes without her cowering and him growling and trying to lunge at her... Merlin has made some progress with him,, but even he seems stressed as he does nothing but whine all the time, We havent been able to leave any of them alone for a second,, even with a gate between them and there has been one since ajay got here last Saturday.. Despite being told he was raised with yorkies and cats,, we just dont believe its true,, he has such huge issues with our two.. and they have been super calm since he got here!!! If we had no other dogs,, we would spend as much time that was needed to get him adjusted,,, he is comfortable with us and our son,, but not our dogs... and thats an obvious problem...
so after a few tears and much discussion after dinner tonight,, we thought it best to cut it now and take him back before he gets too settled here,,,, He is such a sweet swwet boy,, all he wants is rubs and pats..... its utterly has left me bereaved despite only knowing him this short time.. HOW does one explain to a pet that it wont work? You cant,, and thats what breaks my spirit.... i SO wanted this to work...... i really did,,, and now I m left with the thoughts and guilt of a lovely Dobie boy who needs a bit too much more then we have to give..... its sooo frustrating,, I just wanna curl up and cry til I cant cry anymore!!!!!! The guilt I feel is overwhelming,,, so I suppose there isnt much anyone could say to make me feel worse.........

Poor sweet Ajay.......

You know whats best for you and your family. He will find a good home I'm sure, you did your best.
