ugh, so I had this long post of more rambling, then the husband came home and we ended up talking again.
He hasn't said "no I don't want to keep one". He just wants to make sure that the decision to keep one is the right one. I am grieving and I understand his logic. I don't want to keep one and in the end realize it was for the wrong reason, because it wouldn't be right for her. I also don't want to let go because after I realize that I'm ready for another furbaby that I let her go when I shouldn't have. Ugh, sucks to be an adult. And as much as I would love it to be my decision, it is both my husband's and I's.
I've thought that since Chewy has always had a buddy his whole life that keeping one would also be beneficial. Husband thinks he would be okay. I don't know, he might.
I guess I need to figure out why I need to keep one. I know I want one so terribly much, but why do I need two dogs? I see the logic in why I don't absolutely need one, but I need to keep her as I hope to expand my love of these stinkers we call yorkies.
thanks for the support all. It helps me a lot thinking about what I want/need in my life right now. |
