In February of 2007, Hubby & I brought home Prince & Princess. They were, oh so tiny and I adored them. When Mini came along in 2008 they weren't jealous of her and loved to curl up next to her. All was going good until we moved into our present house. Due to the size of the house their pen has shrunk in half. Not usually an issue because they can run around out side as well as play with us. Then we brought the twins home. Within the first couple weeks I noticed something that was not good. Everytime Big, Little Man was near the dogs or anything with dog hair on it his eyes turned red and swelled shut. Uh oh. This means the dogs aren't allowed out of their pen at all and now that the temperatures have dropped and they can't spend long periods of time outside they are stuck in a too small pen. This isn't fair to them and they have gotten antsy as of lately. So we made the heart wrenching decision to rehome them. I have been slow about doing it. Today their ad was posted on petfinder.com. My heart is breaking and I have no idea how I am going to explain to Mini where they went but I know what they deserve better than what they are getting from us.
I can only image how hard this is for you. I wish I lived closer so I could help. Being cute, sweet, Chihuahuas that are also good with children, they will find a good home. At the shelter, we never have a problem adopting out Chihuahuas, especially those that are good with kids. They won't understand at first, but will be so happy in the long run. Happy for the rest of their lives too.
ReplyDeleteI wish I lived closer, too. The responses I am getting leave much to be desired, I know it has only been 1 day but... UGH!
ReplyDeleteThey are cute dogs. Too bad Bill is allergic and we are moving. You could have visitation rights if we took the dogs. :o)
ReplyDeleteI wish so, too. I haven't had any luck so far. I'm contacting rescue shelters and hope that works out better.
