I'm so sorry for your loss and all the heartache you and your family have been put thru. Personally, I think bringing a puppy into your lives after such a tragic loss is a wonderful idea. That is how we got Roxy. When my DH passed away very unexpectedly a few days before my dts's 17th birthday, we were devastated. She had wanted a yorkie for a long time so she started looking and found Roxy locally. She paid for her with her 1st soc. sec. check. Roxy was a godsend in helping fill the void. Your little one will bring so much joy to your family when all this heartache settles down. One way to look at it is, even tho you were horribly deceived, you have saved the life of a defensless little soul that could have been sent to someone lacking the compassion you obviously have only to be tossed aside to some shelter or worse. You are giving her the love and life she deserves. Bless you for that. Yes, she's a different puppy, but she's still a cutie and will grow a beautifull little girl. It's a shame you came to YT under these circumstances, but you will find many caring people with a ton of info to help you. Welcome, and I, for one, am looking forward to watching your little one grow. You, your family and, especially your baby, will be in my prayers. |
