Nero...


We love this little guy a lot, but we've decided that the timing is wrong right now for us to have a puppy. :(

It's been a rough week. One day he's being well behaved and we LOVE having him, and the next day not so much. Also, it's been hard leaving him at home while we're at work. He's alone in his kennel for 8 hours, and then if we want to go anywhere when we get home from work, we have to put him in there for another couple hours. I feel terrible! He needs a family with kids to play with and be with him all day.

A couple days ago we made the decision to give him away. I started to make an ad on craigslist for him, but when I was going through his pictures, I got REAL sad. I was crying! I couldn't do it. So we decided to keep him.

The more we thought about it though, the more we thought it was a good idea to give him away. I found a woman on craigslist who wanted a puppy to surprise her children with for Valentines Day. I contacted her last night and she e-mailed me saying she wanted Nero. She was really nice and I think he will be happy with her little family. :)

He left here about an hour ago, and I miss him so much! But I feel in my heart it was the right thing to do. Plus, the lady said she would keep us updated on him with pictures and such! That makes me happy.

Oh that is SO HARD!!! :( But it does sound like the best for the y'all and Nero. I'm sure he'll be very happy and when the timing is right you can get another dog. We hope to get a dog someday too....probably when Alice is a little older.
