x-posted.
sorry to hear that CWWM, hope he's in a better mood when he gets home.
are you rehoming your dog?

Yes JKS I have tried everything but it has got too much and I am worried about when the baby comes and I am trying to deal with a newborn and the dog getting even more issues and jealousy .

This lady who wants to see him has rehomed a lot of dogs and has had a lot of exp with them.

It is going to be sad we have had him for almost three years but he is miserable and I am too with the situation .

Good morning Slatterns
Cwwm i am sorry to hear about your dog, i hope you manage to get it sorted out

I meant Dh not dd

Hi Alice - i did wonder at you sending her up to the loft, lol!!

CWWM - it's sad but if you are all miserable now then something needs to change maybe if she takes him she can let you know how he's getting on in a few months time? You'll all feel happier then knowing he's happy.
DH really wants a dog and i love dogs (as well as cats) but...they are so much more work than cats and with 2 LOs and maybe more soon i don't want the responsibility yet. and i know i would left with all the dog walking/poo scooping/vet trips/etc. with DH away and just enjoying a weekend walk or something.
