I assume that you don't have any family or close friends who would adopt him, so you could still see him sometimes?
Is it possible to find a local rescue group to work with, instead of sending your little guy back to the breeder? I'm just thinking about the travel and, like you said, the weather at this time of year... and wondering if your pup can find a new home close to you in NY, instead of back in Canada?
I realize that breeders often want ("insist") that pups come back to them if an owner has a change in life situation, but I think the most important thing is finding the little guy a new home as loving and caring as his current home with you, Steve. |
Often this is a part of the contract, and it sounds like this is the case. The contract I signed for both of my Yorkies says that I need the breeder's approval to re-home, even with a relative.
Steve, I am very sorry you are suffering a health crisis and are forced to make difficult decisions about your boy. As others said, call his breeder.
Praying for both of you.
