Rehoming my furbabies

[BelwoBelwo]

Hi All,

I finally had a goodnight sleep last night so I'm able to think a little clearer.

Regarding the fee of 1000 which is 500 for each. If you live in the Bay Area you would know it is almost impossible to find a yorkie for under 1000. Even if you were to adopt an older yorkie with social or health isses, the fee is about as high. My furbabies are both under 2 and have perfectly good health and great social skills. So yes I am concern someone will adopt them and sell them off for more. Please keep in mind both are under 5 pounds, so a lot of people would want them.

Anyhow after thinking long and hard, I convinced my ex to keep them until I can find a place that would allow dogs. In the mean time, just in case I can't find a place that is suitable, I'll be keeping an eye out for a perfect place to rehome them. I'm just thankful I no longer have to make a decison right away. When he told me a few days back that he can't keep them anymore, he was under a lot of stress at the time. He just moved out and was under a lot of emotional and physcially stress. Now that things are calm, he should be able to keep them for a while.

I went to visit them at my exboyfriend's parents house yesterday, when I left Teddy ran out and sat near the curb by car was parked waiting for me. I can't imagine not having them as a part of my life and I can't imagine them not having me as a part of their life. Financially I need to make some arrangement the next few weeks to assure I am capable of bringing them in with me, like I've always said I have their best interest at heart. If for whatever reasons I think I'm not capable of providing for them, I will adopt them so they could have a better life even if its not with me.

A yorkie member offer to foster them until I can find a place of my own. I will be in contact with her just in case my ex changes his mind again. I am forever grateful for everyone who tried to lend a hand. This has been a tough ride, but the members here really help ease my fall.

BelwoBelwo, I will be praying for you. So many matters to concern yourself with. I pray you can easily find a place to move with the yorkies at a very affordable price. You've made a wonderful decision, for all of you, even though it's been difficult. Hugs & continued prayers!!

I feel a little relieved now too. I have felt so sorry for you and your babies! I'm going to pray extra hard that you will be able to find a place that will allow you to have them with you. I only have 1, but I do have 2 cats and 3 birds and when I was looking for places to lease, I made it clear that I had a SMALL QUIET dog and the cats are declawed and are confined (well, they're in one large bed/bathroom, but they're not actually declawed ...but they don't scratch anything other than their tree and their cardboard thingy)....I didn't really have too much problem and I usually took Max with me so they could see how small he was (Oh, be sure to mention that they NEVER have accidents in the house). I know where you live isn't as desperate for renters as it is here, but every little bit helps!!! Good luck!

Did you see this post? Maybe an option until you get resettled?

Just an update I IM Jessica and the offer to foster them is always available to her.

My husband and I don't like the thought of anyone losing their furbabies. My husband being retired gives him plenty of puppy time My babies are his new job. I work from home so he get excerise walking the babies!

I hope you can keep your two babies, however just a little advice should you have to still rehome your babies. I understand your concern about having them end up in the wrong hands for the wrong reasons. I'm assuming you mean breeding purposes and that is a valid concern. You should be concerned. A good way to avoid this is to have them spay and neutered. This will weed out the breeders from trying to get hold of them and keep them in a pet home only situation. Best of luck to you.

Wishing you the best of luck at finding the best new forever home for these babies.

I'm so sorry you have to part with them. That must be very hard, not a decision I would ever want to make.

I wish I were closer where I could keep them for you until you could find a place that would accept pets..keep looking there is something out there..I know those babies want their mama, so am pulling for you..things always work out!

I want to thank everyone once again for your thoughts and prayers.

I'm so happy to say my Ex's parents are completely in love with the yorkies. They think Bella is the smartest and Teddy is the cutest furbabies ever. After spending 2 days with them, not only are they playing with them, they change their sweaters every morning as well. Just the other night, my Ex left the stove on and Bella was barking up a storm. She pretty much saved them all from being burnt to pieces.

I knew eventually they will love them but I was afraid they would give up before the time comes. Fortunately, it all worked out. My ex and I were talking and we thought it was crazy how we were going to adopt them out, and even worst for 1000. They are so priceless. Of course, all members here have yorkies so I really don't have to explain how easy it is to fall in love with these babies.

Although, they are not living with me, I'm just grateful they are with people I can trust.

Again, thank you all and a special thanks to those who reached out and offered to foster them.

[yorkiesmiles]

How wonderful that they have found 2 more people to love them! Bella sounds like she has earned a safety net

You sound so much better - more peaceful. So glad this is all working out for all of you. Hugs to you!

I missed this thread before. And reading it through all in one sitting was quite an emotional roller coaster. I can't imagine how hard it was living it. I'm so glad that things have worked out. And I'm so glad that everyone in your life is working so well together. Amidst everything, you have so much to be thankful for. Big Big Hugs for you!!
