no more puppy:(

Well, after a day and a half, we decided we needed to get rid of Lady. SO SAD!! She was Such a good dog, but something just didn't seem right, and Brenna was getting to the point that she only liked her when we were holding her. She had been knocked over a few times by the dog and had started to cower and put her hand over her face every time she saw her coming. By the end of the first day, we both felt like we needed to give her away - yeah we only made it a day! Sad huh. It wasn't that we didn't want her or that we didn't want all the extra work, it just simply didn't feel right and a few other things have come up that would make having a dog kind of interesting. So, we called the previous owners because they had said before that they had another family that wanted her when we did. She called us back Sunday and told us she found someone who wanted her. It was one of her brother's friends. So Sunday night he came over with his wife and 7 month old little boy and they took her to a new home. We felt SO much better about the situation and felt Lady would be a lot happier with them. They already have a Black Lab, a backyard with ponds and fish, they had a fence and he is an avid bird hunter. So, good bye Lady - maybe we'll try to get another dog in a few years...

oh, i'm sorry it didn't work out. i bet tyson is so sad. but you definitely don't want a child to be so afraid of a dog... especially the one in her own home! maybe you'll have to try a smaller dog next time.

Good job for lasting a day! There's no way I'm getting a dog until my youngest is like 5 years old! I watched my sister-in-law's dog for a week and that did my in!

Oh sad.:( Maybe when she's a little older. I don't think Tyson would want a yip yip.

You lasted longer than I would. I do kids. Not animals. And if my kids are adamant on getting a pet, I'll opt for a goldfish.
