I have not read all the post but I understand that sometimes a pet does not work out in a family and it is in everyone's best intrest to rehome.

I for one can understand. I decided to adopt a yorkie female from a breeder. She was 1 and half year old when i got her. I tired everything to house train her and after 9 months I gave up.

My whole world was comsumed by Silk and trying to get her to potty outside. After nine months I could not take it anymore. My hubby never made me feel bad and say I had to give her back to the breeder...it was my decision because Silk and I were so unhappy.

Please don't judge me...I think I did what was best and the breeder totally understood and replaced her with a puppy. I felt very sad and like a failure for a long time and was not sure about getting a puppy. But now I have Chance and a puppy fit much better into our household.

Also, I did want to mention on the pee pee thing. It took four months of vets telling me nothing was wrong with my dog (Remmy) when he was urinating all over the house. Finally after numerous tests ( that costs lots of money) they discovered that he had stones. However Remmy never peed on anyone but he was peeing all over the house.
