The breeder of my last dog has messaged me to say she’s looking for a home for a bitch under 2 years as this dog’s owner has broke her back/hip. I don’t know how to respond.
I miss my boy sooo much, I still tear up talking about him and I lost him last October, but I don’t think I can afford a dog - not just money-wise but time- and mental-health-wise. She’d have to be an easy pup or else I’d struggle to cope; my last boy was hard work and very isolating due to his behavioural problems, which wasn’t good for me really - didn’t mean I didn’t love him and we had an incredible bond, but he was a life sentence.
I should say no but my heart wants to say yes... I’m honestly not in a position to take care of a dog and do it well, as much as I love them. I work long hours full time and I’m struggling to make ends meet as it is. But I know how dogs can do you good, get you out, and if she was social with people and dogs then she might even be good for me.
God why, I didn’t need this today...
