Ugh

Anybody want an adorable 3-month old puppy, laid-back personality, loves to cuddle…but who does not have small children in the home?

Um, yeah.  You guessed it. *tears*  *lots and lots of tears*

Little cute guy, Cody, has exhibited some concerning agressive behavior towards my two-year-old daughter, and she is now sporting a nice bite on her knee.  But, bless her little heart, that girl knows no fear and what we thought might’ve been a strong reaction to perhaps a tail underfoot proved to be unprovoked aggression as things progressed.

My heart hurts.  I hurt for my little girl who was bitten, I hurt because of this dog who we have to return to the animal shelter and who I pray can be adopted into a home without small children, and I hurt because, well, I guess I feel guilty all the way around. Ugh.

I am so thankful that this particular “trait” was revealed before any terribly traumatic things could happen, though.  I praise Him for that.

I want Goldie back.

  1. Oh! I’m sooo sorry!

    Those little furballs can attach themselves to our hearts so easily. I’m so sorry that Cody didn’t work out.

    Glad your little sweetie will be safe but sorry she got a bite from her “friend”.

  2. I’m sorry, Tara. I know how you want a puppy! But I agree with you that it’s good you learned early on before everyone was extremely attached. I’m glad S is okay. I’ll be praying for you.

    Okay, if I can manage to pull it off (I’ve just been so flighty lately)–wanna get together this week now that my boys are going back to school? I miss ya!
