I thought a lot about weather to post this or not. I just don't want negative feed back since this has already been the hardest thing for me.

I have decided to find a new home for Wookie and Zoie.
I have found a local re-homing program here in Arizona. I am meeting with the lady next week, and I will get to meet the new "mommy" and I will have updates. The good thing is, they will stay together

I know it won't be easy on them, but I know in the end they will be happier and hopefully Zoie will soon recover from whatever it is that she is dealing with. There is already a prospective person to take them, and she knows the situation and the cost and still wants to help.

I hope you all understand this has been such a hard decision, and one I never wanted to make and hope no one is ever in my situation.

But the hard decisions that we have to make are the ones that only makes us stronger

Mitzis Mom · 07-05-2007, 09:33 AM

Dana, You are the only one to decide that and it must be sooooo hard on you. Sometimes you just have to give up a something you deeply love to make sure they habe the life they deserve. I can relate to that and pray for you to make the pain easier to bare.

chachi · 07-05-2007, 10:07 AM

I thought Zoie was the one wth medical problems so why are you surrendering Wookie too. I know you must be so sad wth this decison. I wish you the best of luck

patty58 · 07-05-2007, 10:40 AM

I know your heart is breaking and mine is breaking right along with you. You will be in my prayers for emotional healing. Just remember that Gods angels will be with Wookie and Zoie and will protect them. (I know I am one of those silly people who believe in angels

) Please know that you have my support and I am sure the support of lots of YTers. Patty

Maybe if you start a thread in here about re-homing them, someone would take them. Never know what could happen? Sounds like you made your decision and thats not mine to judge. You came for support and thats all I have to offer. Maybe if you name the thread the re-homing in Arizona you could catch some people in your states eye? Not sure if it is AZ just an example. Best of luck to you and your babies. I hope your heart heals and seems as if you have given this a TON of thought and tears.....If you ever need to talk or anything Im here. I have never walked in your shoes, nor do I want to right now.... You do not seem to have malicious intentions and really seem to want whats best for your babies just as we all want for ours. Just because you cannot provide whats best for them right now does mean your a bad person. I commend you for realizing your in over your head and doing something about it. Letting things go and hoping for a change is not going to get Zoie any better. SHe needs medical attention and fast. I feel bad for you and seriously wish you the best with everything!

Dena · 07-05-2007, 11:16 AM

Thank you everyone.

Honestly, Zoie isn't in a condition to really wait too long for medical attention. That is why I wanted to go to a rescue/rehoming program because I know that they would do it as fast as possible. Im just really worried about her.

I can tell that the kiddos know something is up too. They are acting really weird

I decided to rehome both of them together, because 1.. Zoie has been with wookie since a baby, and she loves him so much. And he loves her.. They are the ultimate brother sister combo. She annoys the s**t out of him and he smashes her with his paws

It's a love/hate relationship.. He got really depressed when she was in the hospital, im really worried about him too. Its going to be traumatic not to have me, so at least they will have eachother. I thought about keeping wookie, but i feel that would be selfish. Like im picking one over the other. And the last factor is still money. Yes medical bills are expensive and i might not have them with Wookie, but because of these bills, I have gotten waaaay too in over my head and i can't handle a tiny little oops for another year.

littlewhip · 07-05-2007, 11:42 AM

Iam so very sorry hun, you have done whats right by zoie all along, my heart breaks for you, i dont even know what to say except we are here to support your decision, i will continue to pray for you & zoie

rnnw62 · 07-05-2007, 12:27 PM

I am just seeing this and am so sorry about the issues with Zoie and
now your thoughts on re-homing them. I feel so bad for you and for
them too Dena. The vet care here is very expensive I know that first
hand. I went through the exact same thing your going through with
Teddy when he first came to us so I can relate and do know how
your feeling right now. I am close to you so if there is anything I can
do to help you just get a hold of me. This was like your dream and I
so hate to see it turn into a nightmare by you not only investing so
much of your heart and money but now also losing them both. You'll
be in my thoughts and my best wishes go out to you in whatever
decision you make.

stedmansmommy · 07-05-2007, 02:34 PM

Girl, I am so glad that you decided to share this. I know I told you that I would post something for you, but I'm glad that you chose to update everyone.

I know this is so hard for you girl, and I know how difficult things have been for you lately. I know I have told you all of this a million times before, but I really do think that it is so big of you to do this. You are just so strong girl. You are thinking of your babies FIRST and putting their health and happiness at the top of the list as your first priority, and that alone shows just how much you truly do care for them.

I am praying for you girl, and I know that you will be strong. Wookie and Zoie will find the right home that is just perfect for them - and the best thing is that they will be able to stay together, and you will still be able to keep contact with them, and that is WONDERFUL.

Big hugs girl and try and stay strong

rrosenberry · 07-05-2007, 02:50 PM

You have to do what you know and feel is right. Noone will judge you.
It has to be so hard- I commend you for being able to do it.

Gizmo's Mom · 07-05-2007, 03:50 PM

I will be praying so hard for you and your babies...that this little body is healed and they can remain together and be happy.

Dena · 07-05-2007, 07:24 PM

Thank you everyone for the support, I really appreciate it.

I'm going to tell whoever Wookie and Zoie's new mom is about YorkieTalk and hopefully they will join and post updates and pictures of them.
