Heartbroken pls be kind

[Nalalove1]

So I’ve had social services involved with me and my kids due to my dad fighting with my partner outside my home and police having to get called . I’ve had 2 different social workers had no problem with them whatsoever they didn’t have a problem with my dog until I’ve now had a new social worker. She is scared of large breed dogs and said to me I should’ve gotten a smaller dog and saying I need to rehome my dog as the dog smells but other social workers have not had a problem whatsoever and said my dog is completely fine as they’ve had dogs themselves .

so there I am panicking I’ve just rehomed my dog to somebody and I am so so so heartbroken and I can’t stop crying we all loved her she was our family dog and my emotional support everything in one . My dog wouldn’t stop crying as she was leaving & couldn’t look at me . Is it silly if I asked the person who took her if she could keep my dog just until social are out of my life which should be in a few months time , she’s already said I could visit my dog soon whenever I wanted too see her but I don’t know if asking that is taking the p$ss? I don’t know anymore 😭

You’ve rehomed your dog just because Social Worker said you should, there’s no way I would take that as law, unless there’s another reason why they would say it.

You kind of allowed everyone around you to boss you and do with you as they wish. You have to learn to know your rights

Oh God, you poor thing! Go and get your dog back! She had absolutely no right whatsoever to dictate what type of dog you should have, that's absolutely outrageous and to be honest, I'd be thinking about reporting her, she's taking her job far too personally and I'd bet she wanted you to get rid of your dog because SHE is scared! If the dog attacked her or anyone else, absolutely she would have a right to be concerned, what's she going to do next, tell you what you should and shouldn't be wearing, how to bring up your kids etc etc, put your foot down, go get your dog! Just put her in a different room with the SW visits. Dry your eyes and go get your beloved dog! Let me know.

That was literally her reasons , none of the old social workers had a problem with her but this new one seems to have a problem with her and I don’t know why all I know is that she’s scared of large breed dogs

So do social workers in this country behave like they are god or who is actually screening them and managing them?

Yeah one of my friends had told me she hasn’t even got a court order so she can’t do that surely , I’m wanting too get her back so badly but just wasn’t sure if it was muggy of me really too ask for her back if you know what I mean as the lady had given me money not a lot of money but just a bit and had travelled an hour and half and yeah I have always put her in a different room every time the social worker came round as she screamed when she had first saw my dog and I said she’s just excited she just wants too play but I put her in another room anyways

Unless there's a huge back story here, please make a complaint to the SW's superiors.

@Nalalove1 did you get your dog back? Hope it all turned out ok for you.

What breed is it? There is a massive difference between say a Newfoundland and a Rottweiler.
