Right now I am in the middle of trying to find a home for a Miniature Schnauzer that belongs to my 19 year old granddaughter. She got this sweet dog several years ago when she was still at home living with her mom. Then my daughter(her mom) suddenly gets a divorce and that puts the mom, 2 teenagers and 3 dogs in an apartment (they were only suppose to have 2). That was chaotic but do-able until there was an apartment change and the granddaughter moves out on her own, then suddenly no one lives in a place that will accept the pets! Granddaughter lives where she can have NO pets, mom is in a place that will only accept 2 and that leaves poor little Button hanging in limbo!
I have 7 dogs and 5 cats and absolutely have no room for her but I seem to be the one that cares the most. So I am searching on my own for the perfect someone where Button can go and live forever and get the love and attention she so much deserves. I have a lady that has contacted me regarding Button and she seems perfect. I am meeting with her Monday to see it if is a match but IF I end up placing Button with her I plan on telling her that if for any reason there is a problem of any kind to please contact me. If any new home for her doesn't work out I will find a way to take her into my home. I refuse to let that little dog be a statistic unless it ends in happily every after. |
I know what you mean. My ex-daughter-in-law doesn't give a flip what happens to Samantha. My son does care, a lot, but he doesn't have the time and experience I have finding homes. I've done it several times and don't mind investing the time and effort. I hope the home works out for Button and she gets the great home she deserves and is happy there.
HOORAY, Samantha hopped down off the couch yesterday and went into the kitchen to use the potty pad. That's a first! She uses it when she's in her crate or when she's confined in the kitchen, but that's the first time she's gone to find it when she was loose. I am letting her be loose a little longer as time goes by, watching her carefully, and encouraging her to go to the potty pad. She's only had one accident in the last three days, so she is catching on. She has recovered very quickly from her spay surgery and is back to normal. Her incision is healing beautifully and she has not bothered it. My son still has not talked to my granddaughter about letting Samantha go to a new home, but he is going to have to do it. Brianna is out of town with her other grandmother until Friday.
I have fallen in love with Samantha, of course. She is very sweet and is fun to have around. I think the potty issue can be resolved and I'm being very persistent with her, but gently. I think she felt like going potty was a bad thing and I certainly don't want her to think that! We are making progress!
