Wow! I never knew one small dog community could/would be so helpful. Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement. :) I will now attempt to add pictures. Would it be unfair to the dog if my grandmother watched her? I don't want to traumatize her by making her move/switch homes and people. :confused: She's only 9 weeks (I know, it's not an ideal age) |
I don't quite understand how to post pictures yet, but here are a few bad blurry ones I took off my phone. http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z...1223000922.jpg http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z...1222002218.jpg http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z...1222001935.jpg http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z...1222001932.jpg |

Adorable! keep the Yorkie. Put up with things while you work out another plan. |
I didn't know that such a small dog community could be so helpful, it really does mean alot. Thanks again x10000 I don't want to be unfair to the dog by making her switch owners and places, would it be? She's only 9 weeks (I know it's not ideal). |
How old is your Grandmother? I ask, because a 9 week old Yorkie is a handful and really needs someone experienced to care for this "baby" and she will be in a "baby" phase for quite some time. You said you have 2 dogs, what is your other dog? If you have to stay at your Dad's, I would have a good heart to heart talk with him about all of this. I don't think giving up your dogs is the answer, but there's got to be some sort of compromise. Maybe the dogs are to stay in your room? Do you have an Xpen to keep them contained? |
Rachael, your little one is adorable. Is your grandmother willing to help you out by caring for her for awhile? Do you have an x-pen you could take to grandmother's place, so she wouldn't be piddling everywhere and would be safe, too? Would you be in a position to see her daily and help care for her? How long do you think she would need to stay with grandmother? These are a few questions I would have. Remember, too, that if grandmother loves dogs, she may become very attached to that little one, too. |

You said you got the dog from your friend. Maybe she would be willing to look after it for you until you get back on your feet. |
I would let Daddy know that you love him and how you feel about your baby and how she is keeping you together after the loss of your other baby. I know how you feel, the kids got Scooter for me after I lost Sophie Lynn and I would not give him up for anything, we would live under a bridge if I had to . Sounds to me like Daddys gf needs a reality check. He was your father way before he was her bf. I wish I lived closer I would help you out. My babies are spoiled :littleangRIP Sophie Lynn Mommy loves and misses you |
Uh Rach, why don't you move in with your grandmother. Why surround yourself with major negativity with your father, especially when you have anxiety?? Do yourself a favor and don't bother begging your dad. He's obviously not too worry about you. Sad to say. But you and your baby pup need eachother. And you grammy too. :o)) Good Luck!! |
You said others (family) were harassing you for chosing the dog over your dad. It seems to me Dad is choosing GF over his daughter. I don't know what to say. Your dad has his GF and for you your baby is part of you like his GF is to him. That would a bad situation if it were me. I would be scared to leave the pup at Dad's when you went to work if he did change his mind now, not telling what GF would do to it. Hopefully things can be worked out with Grandma. Thank God for Grandmas. |
id have to stand by my dogs, my 3 yorkies, my lil girl especially, have helped me thro a terrible bout of depression, i love them all too bits and would live in the streets b4 i parted with them. i hope u find somewhere for u both xx |
You are in a tough situation. Just my opinion, but I'd look for somewhere else to stay. It's not that you are choosing the dog over your dad, but it sounds like the gf will try to make your life a living h*ll while you are there no matter what. Right now, the dog is her excuse to "pick" at you. But soon enough, it will be something else. |
:dogwalk: love this little guy! |
very cute pup and yea can you possibly stay with grandma instead?? i wouldn't want to live with dad's awful GF. |
Sounds like you may need family counselling or to talk to a close friend or family member it's more of a personal problem than a dog problem. I have never been happier since getting Teegy and I swear he is the main thing that got me through the sudden death of my dad. Don't let your dad's gf get in the way of your relationship with him. Work around the issue find somewhere else to live and keep the dog. Just remember men tend to think with parts of their anatomy we don't have and gf's with a quandry tend to use that to their advantage. Unless you catch video of her cheating on your dad you won't win that battle hun. |
Rach - I don't post often but this hit really close to home for me. Your Dad is making a HUGE mistake!! When I was young (long time ago) my Dad remarried and the new stepmom was a total A** just out of pure JEALOUSY of his kids. After a few years, she was gone and he spent the rest of his life making up for the years of relationship lost with his kids. When I married, I had a 4 yr old stepdaughter. One of the things my Dad told my husband that day was - "I love my daughter BUT never let ANYONE come between you and your kids." My Dad had learned his lesson the hard way! I hope your Dad does not make the same mistake. (And you can tell him I said so)!! Will keep you in my thoughts for a good outcome. |
I agree with Rachel and Sadie. I wouldn't want to live with your father's gf either. I don't think I would want to live in the basement knowing that b-----is right above me. |
