When I first brought Maddox home, I was too afraid to let him sleep on the bed just yet. So I put him in the puppy stroller and rolled it right next to the bed. He could see me through the mesh, & I slept with my hand right by that little window so he could smell me. If you don't have a stroller, you might want to think about one - it would be great to push Layla through the house so she could be with you while you're cleaning, etc. |
Thank you. Even getting a crate has helped so much. We just move her into whichever room we're in without having to pick her up and risk moving her spine.
Another friend told me this morning to just put her down, she would do the same for her dog. I can't believe it. She is not in pain, she is not suffering, she's just confused and scared. If we just gave up and killed every life that cried, there would be no life left. This is giving me more determination than ever to do what I can to have Layla walk again and prove everyone wrong. Layla loves to prove people wrong. "Oh, you think that gate will hold me in here?" "Oh you think this velcro harness will keep me here when I see another dog over there?" She's a determined little dog.
