Homeowners!

We closed on our house today! I've never signed so many damn papers in my life...and I was signing for Beau as well because he is gone. 

I had a rough start to the day...

Yesterday I went to Bark in the Park with my neighbor. Ethan loves dogs, and I thought it would be great for him to see all of them. The animal control was there and they were adopting dogs. I saw this big furry Shepherd/ Collie Mix. He was soo sweet and just wanted to be loved. Well...I was talked into adopting him. He seemed to love Ethan! Ethan giggled every time the dog came near him. 

I brought him home and my poor Chica was so upset. She tried to bite him and he just wanted to play...which she thought he was trying to attack her. I was sitting on the floor with Ethan, and the dog basically ran him over. I tried to take him and show him the baby, and he ended up stepping on his leg. That set me off. I was hopeful though.

He slept in my bed last night, and basically sat on top of me all night. He finally laid down and fell asleep, and then at 1:30 this morning he got up and sat on me again. I took him outside...called Beau, crying saying I made a mistake by bringing him home. Well he maybe slept a whole 2 hours last night and the rest of the time he was climbing all over me...and he was about 50 lbs. 

I brought him out into the living room at 5:00am and let him outside. I brought him back inside and he peed on the carpet, and ran around the living room. 

This morning at 8am I took him back to animal control...in tears. I felt so bad that I brought him home...took him out of the shelter and then brought him back. It breaks my heart, but I have to protect my baby. He is my number one priority. I've felt horrible all day, but I'm hoping that someone will give the dog a great home where he gets their full attention.
