And what would you do if you were told you had to move overseas in 4 days? Should I leave my husband? My dog is at my side all day long except the few hours I run errands. Like I don’t already have a dagger in my heart.


One could take a few days out of one’s busy schedule to take care of what needs to be done, like finding a good home for a loved family member. There’s no law saying you have to move at the same time as your husband....I hear there are several flights a day to world-wide destinations. It seems all your alternative solutions involve abandonment or euthanasia. That “dagger in your heart” is guilt because you’re not going about this the right way. While seeking help from everyone, you’ve thrown in the “threat” that unless someone comes forward the dog will be disposed of. This is what I find offensive.

“One could take a few days out of one’s busy schedule to take care of what needs to be done, like finding a good home for a loved family member.”

That’s exactly what I’m trying to do. I got 4 hours of sleep last night and that was sitting up on the couch.

“There’s no law saying you have to move at the same time as your husband....I hear there are several flights a day to world-wide destinations.”

You have no clue what my husband does or why flights to world wide destinations isn’t an option.

“It seems all your alternative solutions involve abandonment or euthanasia.”

Well should I be wishing for some magic fairy to show up to take him to live with My Little Pony?

“That “dagger in your heart” is guilt because you’re not going about this the right way. While seeking help from everyone, you’ve thrown in the “threat” that unless someone comes forward the dog will be disposed of. This is what I find offensive.”

No, the dagger is having to give up a beloved friend because he can’t go with me and the reality of the situation is that my options indeed are that limited. I’m really glad you live in a perfect world. I don’t.

Also, kind Freepers, while I’ve been freaking out and not thinking very straight, have actually been helpful by providing links to no kill shelters and groups I haven’t heard of. It was my assumption that if I had to take my precious pup to a shelter that they’d euthanize him because of his aggression issues. You have absolutely no idea how much I love my dog and what he means to me, but it’s the internet so feel free to sit at your keyboard and say hurtful things rather than try to help. You don’t have to see the tears I’ve been crying the last two days.
