Have you consulted with your vet/breeder as to whether the new pup will fit into your family?
There could possibly be a personality clash, as you DO take in weaker/sick dogs, this *could* potentially be an ongoing prob.
Its just that this has gone on awhile and your obvo stressed about it.
Some dogs are just not a good fit for certain families. Sucks, but thats the way it is. Dogs come with their own personalities, and with work, they can be made to sorta fit, but oftimes noone is as happy as they would be with a better fit......
I went thru 2 dogs before I have the one I have now, and after over a year, I am now finally pretty comfortable with her.
Its just when I have read some of your stuff, it reminds me SO much of when I had the other dogs that I found diff homes for. I was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO stressed, and it comes out in alot of diff ways....
It was hard to give up the dogs(cost me lotsa $$ too..) but it was a learning experience too. Can't put a price on that.
Feel free to b-mail me if you wish. Coherant or not!
Take good care,
