Ok I have a situation and am kind of torn on what to do. I have always been a dog person and after having to put down my old friend Zeus,several years back, I simply never had it in me to have another. It just hurt too much to grow attached then have to say goodbye.....
Well I began working with local shelters just to be around animals however had no intention of adopting......then this little guy showed up and I have a chance to take him.
I am very good with animals and have no doubt I could raise another animal and show it much love. My fear is that if I am in doubt should I take a chance? I worry that if my heart is really not in it all the way maybe it would be best to let someone else take this puppy. My g/f adopted a female staffordshire terrier and she really wants a companion for her. I really love the little adopted female dog however it is not the same as again having my own dog.
I met the dog in the link above this weekend and he sure is a little bundle of fun. He is bigger now (6 months) however still has those sad eyes.....almost like he is begging me to take him. Many have said it is best for animal people to jump right in to pet ownership after losing one. In a way I agree however again I would want to do my best.....and if my heart is still un-sure could I be the owner to this puppy that I was to my old friend Zeus.
Now that I think about it I want to say who do I think I am fooling here....how could anyone resist that little bundle of fur.
