I would just keep the dog and leave a check for him for what he paid for the dog..


Woo I am glad I don't have you problem.. sorry but to be as young as you and the issue would not be good.   

Tell me about it! It's horrible, I wouldn't wish this upon anyone

I don't think I can give up my dog... I will keep everyone posted on what happens. right now we are going to give it one last try. And if things don't get better, I'm leaving. And I want both my dogs.... I think anyone would feel the way I do in this situation.

We wish you luck. Keep us posted if you'd like.

Good luck!

I went through this exact scenario a few years ago with my boyfriend. We had littermate (boys) who were pretty much inseperable, they loved each other! When we decided to end it the boys where about 8mo.-yr old. He took Atlas and I kept Rigby... needless to say, Rig is better off- But I feel bad for Atlas a lot. I used to occasionally dog sit for him, but he's EXTREMELY over weight now But when we split I had a lot of advantages in my favor. I have two other dogs at home, tons of "dog friends" and brought him to the dog park to play with other dogs a lot. He acclimated right into the "pack" with the other two dogs at my parents house and seems to be fine (he's going to be 4 in November.) Plus, I work at a doggie daycare, so he gets to go to work with me too My suggestion is to exercise her a lot and keep to a routine, if you're going to make changes make them now and stick to them. Having said all this, if the boys see each other they still go crazy- they recognize each other and immediately get into a wrestling match.... but then again, boys will be boys lol

She's on the smaller side for huskys, about 45lbs...

According to the Siberian Husky Club of America and the AKC, 45 lbs for a female Sibe is actually at the larger end of the breed standard. Just thought you might want to know that. So many people think our dogs are too small, or are supposed to be HUGE when they are a medium or medium/large breed. I'm trying to educate myself and help educate others to clear up this type of confusion.
