I need help. This is killing me!!

I can't imagine going through this. How in the world could you get rid of something so dear to you just because of a bf. I also couldn't imagine that you could ever look him in the face after you have gotten rid of your baby and not eventually hate him and then not having your baby. what in the world kind of person would force you to go through this. Men come and go but something that will give you unconditional love is for life... I will be honest that I can't look at his pics without tears running down my face. You read stories about folks loosing their babies to disease or I know what I have to go through with Moe when he is so sick and I am..... well I am just......Know that you are in my thoughts and my prayers.

Y'all, I really do love my bf. He's normally not hateful about things like this. As I stated, I don't know why or what's gotten into him lately. Maybe he expected a more laid back pup or something. He's a boxer and won't mature for a while yet but he's typically just very playful. If we are stern with him, he calms down when needed. I love his playfullness. It's part of who he is. My bf and I went on a long bike ride today. We both needed it. It was perfect weather after all the rain we've been getting lately. When we got home, Mr wigglebutt was waiting....wiggling. We let him out to pee and played for a bit. I had cut up chicken for dinner before we left for the ride and he didn't even bother the scraps in the opened trash bag on the kitchen floor! You just can't beat good doggie manners like that. I'm so proud of him. I'm stuck at work tonight so he'll have to look into those big brown eyes tonight and justify what he's thinking and why. (he sleeps on my pillow next to him while I'm at work)
I will keep everyone posted. Thanks to everyone of you praying for us. It means more than you'll ever know.

Keep up the good vibes and we'll be sure to keep you all in our thoughts and prayers.

No compromises...

Dump the jerk... keep Buddy. Believe me, you'll be a lot happier... you'll have a much higher quality relationship... you'll have a Significant Other that really does care about you... and you'll find that your headaches and that pain in your ass have both gone away.

well so many have already siad my thoughts.

I cant believe he would even suggest this to you, knowing how much your baby means to you.

I rmember when I first moved in with my husband. He was pretty cold towards my Blayz. And I thought to myslef right then and there, oh this isnt going to work out... too bad. But now he just loves them both as I do.

You tell your Bf to come live at my house for a week and we will definately see an attitude adjustment.

What makes this all the more sadder is that there are many people on here who have not had the choice of keeping their babies, nature has taken them.BUT YOU DO!!!

I too am faced with losing my boy too soon and I would give anything, ANYTHING TO HAVE A CHOICE!

Please do right by your Buddy, he needs you and... well ... it sounds like your boyfriend doesnt deserve you.

Tell him to give up his precious bike and see how that goes down.

I end you lots of love to get through this and I hope you find an inner strength to stand up to this guy.

Did you ever talk to him about his request? Sounds like you are hoping it will just go away?

If this was ever even mentioned my hearth would break. Even if never carried through the writing is one the wall of the type of person he is. Dogs are not disposable and quite frankly I AM SICK of people who think they are. When you bring a dog home (when HE BROUGHT THE DOG HOME) he made the decision for the next 10 plus years, if you are lucky, this boxer is your life. I could never look into look into those big brown eyes and say goodbye, mommy choose a cruise over you....

I hope you make the right decision. and there is always a way out. Go live with you family and get away from TX if you have too...

 

[Mom0624]

You already know your answer

Love is not a disposable thing. It is intangible and more filling than any cruise which lasts only hours or days. The bond between you and your boxer speak worlds about how you feel about bf, he may want to do all these "things" with you but is he knowing the real you and would you really be happy. I live in TX and if you decide Pupster needs to go, I would love for my Joey to have a buddy. Thing is, I think you need him more than Joey does. Think this over well, good thing he is not asking you to give up your daughter too!!
Do some real soul searching and you will find the right answer, just be strong enough to go with it. My thoughts go out to you.

 

[Rocky's Ma]

I cannot even believe that your BF suggested you get rid of your dog. He has to know how much you love Buddy and if your BF loves you, why would he want you to part with your dog? That doesn't sound right to me. I'm sorry, but if my BF ever gave me that ultimatum, I would choose Rocky with no question. Ultimatums are bad news and so is a person who is jealous of the time spent with your dog.

 

[ShrtyBxrLvr]

I feel for you. Look deep down and see what your thinking. I can't imagine you giving up Buddy....you'll be miserable without him and will most definately resent the BF after a while. Men come and go but the love of your baby lasts. I know there isn't anyone who loves me as much as my babies do...unconditionally and with pure adoration.
If it was my house my DH would kick me to the curb before he'd let his babies go.
Good luck with this. Let us know how things are going....I'm interested. Don't rule out going with your family....it's amazing what can happen when your need them most.

Let me start of by saying. A. I am a guy B. I have never been abused and C. I have been with my girlfriend for 3 years.

That being said if my girlfriend told me we had to get rid of my dog I would laugh at her in her face. There is no chance I would let my dog go because my significant other wants to travel more. Who picked out the dog. You have to do research. You can not just pick up a dog because it looks pretty or is cute as a puppy. I think it would be a horrible thing to give the dog up especially since this dog is so spoiled. Sorry to say this but you boyfriend is pathetic if he makes you give this dog up. Sorry but that is how I feel and people like him are the reason so many dogs are put to sleep.
