really though, i cant ever see myself giving him away its just so hard to take care of him sometimes. and its not even him its just that i keep having to take him to the vet and i dont have money...at the time i got him, i was working two jobs and it wasnt a problem. but now that i am unemployed, whenever i have to ask my parents or fiance for the money, i know that they're getting tired of it and that whole "he's your dog, you need to take care of him" things just hangs in the air and very heavily over my head
i'm not looking for sympathy or anything, i guess im just venting....and please, if you do leave a comment please dont say things like "well if u cant take care of him, then you should find a good home that can provide for him" because hes being taken care of just fine but i just feel helpless...
and this next statement may be a little much...but...having odie has really made me question wether or not i want children. because when he gets sick i dont know whats wrong with him and i dont what he wants or needs...and like i said..i just feel so overwhelmed....
and all of this makes me very sad. |
I totally understand where you are coming from, I would not give Lily and Kingston up for all the money in the world but sometimes I wonder if I can do it, one of them are always at the vet my husband is trying to get his MBA and I am losing my job In Sept. So I completely understand. Just like many have said it will all pass and one day you will sit with him and wonder how you will ever live without him. As far as not wanting kids anymore we were supposed to start trying 8 months ago but having the dog and being up with them all night and spending all our spare cash on them and my job changing I also have second thoughts about having children. Good luck with everything and remember to enjoy the good time, we have all been there.
