hi my situation is a little dif but i thought i would share and maybe it would help. I have had shaffer since he was a puppy he is now 6 i got fife at the same time they were buds shaffer loved fife and fife loved shaf,, shaffer had anxiety when left alone but was ok if left with fife, well i needed to put fife to sleep 2 weeks back. not sure who missed fife more me or shaf,, anyway i wanted to foster but it didnt work out, I was on yt and a member sent me a pm with a dog that was avail on craigslist, i sent the owner an email on 4th of july, she said sure you can have him come over, i said omg do i really want a dog this quick should i shouldnt i,, i went back and forth 500x in 1 hour, I said well i know ill do right by the dog even if i dont keep him,, he was not fixed so i knew i would do that get him all fixed up and a new home if needed, well he is a joy, my heart is missing a huge part after fife died, and part of it will always be but he is helping mend it, My shaffer wasnt sure at 1st but was really nice to him let him eat his chewwy take his toys didnt care of he took hsi treat shaffer didnt want to sit near him, until a little while ago but he is trying. I say go get the dog even if to make sure you know you will get him what he needs and a new forever home if that is what you decide. |
