I got my puppy a few months ago, and he's five months now. I'm a college student who works full time, and I must admit he was an impulse purchase, although I never regretted that fact. I love him more than anything but I just feel like I am not giving him the best life he could have. He stays in his ex-pen during the day, and sometimes when I get home I am just too worn out to play with him or walk him, or give him all of the attention he deserves. He is just the happiest puppy I have ever met, though. He doesn't act sad about it and he just gives me more love than I ever imagined possible. I love him so much though, and I want the best for him, and I just read about how must love you are all able to give back to your yorkies and I know I don't meet that whatsoever. I'm just so scared I am going to rehome him and miss him so much. But I don't have the time to train him, potty train him. He goes to obedience class with me once a week but I don't practice with him as much as I should. I have spent so so much money on him getting all of his shots and toys and the best of everything. I just keep thinking I may not be ready for this responsibility with my lifestyle.
Plus, I don't know what rehoming even involves or how I would find a good home for him. I know people won't want to spend money on him, but I have put so much money and effort into him that I kind of feel like I should at least get something back for the shots/food/toys/etc I have put into it.
I don't know, this is the absolute hardest decision I have ever had to make and I am hoping you guys will be able to help me out. Look at his pictures, he is the sweetest little baby teapot I have ever met in my entire life. Please guys, I just don't know what to do anymore. | advertise him on yorkie talk.. and im sure someone will buy him and then you can be assured he has a better life. then you can get a new puppy down the road...best wishes
