    Default I gave my dog away last night..... :(



    When i went to FL the beginning of the month my best friend took care of my pup, lyric.... He kept me updated on the fun lyric was having and sent pictures of him playing and romping around with their pit, roxy... Once i picked him up and brought him back down to my apt.. i could tell he just wasn't the same dog.. So, i decided to stop being selfish and instead of worrying how much it sucks... i would give him to my friend so that he could be up in blue ridge romping and playing all day everyday.. instead of cooped up in my cubicle all day.. then at an apt all night......


    but it still sucks... and i miss him... the whole ride home from br (this morning) i kept looking in my rear view because he's normally in my cargo area... and i kept thinking i'd see his blocky head pup up.... i hope i did the right thing...

    oh also... i've babied this dog for 2 years.... he's been my world.. my everything... i've missed out on a lot of things just to make sure he was comfortable..

    didn't go on trips he couldn't be taken... he went to work with me every day...his bed is literally right next to mine.... basically for the last 2 years he's been my child... vet visits.. bee stings... gum in the hair... sitting up with him at night when he's getting sick... literally like a child... i didn't get rid of him because "he was a burden" or i didn't want him...

    That sux man. I know what you mean though. I have a pit/boxer mix. I use to have a yard for him to play in all the time. Now I live in a townhouse and he just lays about all day doing nothing. I feel bad for him. I live a few blocks from a a dog park, but I don't always have the time to take him. I have considered loaning him to someone for now. Hopefully withing the next year I will have a house with a yard again.

    Killer, I'm sorry to hear about you having to give your dog away. I've been dealing with a similar issue with my two dogs. I'm not sure what is going to end up happening to them after my divorce is all finalized. It always sucks having to give up a pet. I have had to once before and I felt so bad for it. I hope you can get him back one day.

    I'm so sorry to hear that. I have a pet iguana that I have had since i was 10 yrs old and he is like my baby. I almost had to give him up a few years ago but luckily I managed to keep him. I hope you can make arrangements so you can get him back! Good luck!

    i guess that's the only difference here... is that i didn't HAVE to do anything........ i just felt he'd be happier else where.... he has so much energy and just a loving/goofy personality... it just seemed unfair to keep him "tied down" at an apt...









    ED don't listen to your research bullshit!!!!!!!!!! keep the pup around the other dogs... let it be raised WITH them being around and it'll be fine!!!! if you keep it away from the others then it won't know what to do when it actually is around them!

    lyric grew up with my bosses dogs being here.. and always being around dogs in BR... the only dog he has ever snapped at was that weimriner(spl??? i know that's not it...) that was next to us in marietta.... because it barked and acted aggressive towards me/my room mate..

    Well there are plenty of other pits at every animal shelter. Your apartment would be a nice upgrade in their minds I'm sure compared to the consequences they are facing. It's really sad this breed has become "cool" to own, and then when they require some effort they are abandoned. Not in your case, but in general.

    i agree.............. i'm really glad you said "not in your case" cause i about lost it!!! lol...

    that isn't the case here... at all!!! he didn't out grow my apt or where i work.. i just know he's happier with his "girlfriend" roxy where he can run and play all day every day... as opposed to only when i have the time to take him out... etc etc...

    Awah!! I am soooo sorry dude!! I feel your pain! I live out in the country and still feel bad sometimes b/c I dont get to spend enough time with my baby girl (a pit also) because of class and work. I have missed out on many things b/c I cant just leave her at home alone! I take her everywhere I go and if people cant understnad that then I usually dont go! lol Dont beat yourself up over it though! I am sure he knows you love him and meant well!! I bet he is having fun!! Hopefully you can get him back if you get a better place for him!! Best of wishes!! =)
