Re: possibly re-homing our dog
I had a similar situation with a dog we loved very, very dearly. An older man who had the room for her to run and who loved to take her out on adventures while we lived in his home moved away. I offered to let Princess go with him but he said he could never take my dog away from me; and I let it go at that. But Princess wasn't happy when he moved away. She loved us and was very loyal to us, but she would run away and romp in the places he used to take her every chance she got. Eventually she developed a liver condition and her life ended prematurely. It's my extreme love for her that makes me wonder at times if I really should have insisted that he take her. I will never know, but there remains a sad regret in my heart.
