It was plain she wasn't going to accept my son. And I was scared she might snap when I wasn't looking. You just can't take a chance with a brand new baby! So, we had to make the difficult move to find her another home. For awhile we saw her occasionally but then we moved and I lost track of the couple who took her. I know they loved her and she got to be the only child again. |
Looks like you had to make a hard decision and it turned out for the best BUT time and again people do just drop their pets at shelters. Take a look at a lot of the ads on Petfinder.com. Had a baby couldn't keep her, move couldn't keep him. It really is sad because most do not end up in loving homes. Your story did sound like a much more happy ending for your Lhasa.
