I'm soooo 🤏 close to messaging my trainer if she knows somebody who would be a good fit for Sammy and his issues.

The more time goes by the more I think about this idea. I don't think I can give him the quality of life that he deserves and needs anymore.

The most noticeable thing for me is that he's regressed with grooming a lot and I don't have the (physical and mental) energy to put the constant effort in that would be required to improve that. Same goes for muzzle training, and he needs that done. I just don't have that anymore. Training fun things here and there is a whole other matter, but this is something that needs to be done continuously and with a lot of patience. I think he might be better off with someone else at this point.

#sam the papillon #just writing this down breaks my heart so bad #but I'm starting to seriously think about it #it was clear from the start that it would be better for ME if he went to another home #but when it all started it did seem a better option for him to stay here #but right now I'm seeing that in a different light #maybe it's because of all the other things going on #maybe it would be different once the stairs don't suck my energy dry #but currently I'm leaning more towards rehoming being the better option for him #but idk #maybe I'll message her anyway and see what happens #it's not like it has to be done asap at all costs #ideally I'd give him to my sister but idk how well he'd do with so many dogs and cats #and idk if she'd want to put all the effort in #but I could be absolutely sure he's getting treated right #which still is my no.1 concern with him #it's so tricky 😓
