Farah, how is your relationship and your husband's relationship with your MIL? She is family after all... Maybe you can explain and ask if you can give her a new puppy. She obviously feels comfortable with you if she was able to leave the puppy with you for so long. I hope you have a good relationship with her because unless she bonded well with Ace in the first month (I know I bonded with my puppy rather quickly) if you have a good relationship seeing your heartache and how much Ace loves Ceiba she might go for the arrangement. Good luck, just be honest about your feeling with her, that is all you can do.
