Y'all need to calm your hormonal ***** down.
I feel for you girl my chihuahua is my baby I have had him since I was 8. Some ppl just don't have as much love for animals as other ppl and can just give them away nd get a new one whenever. I don't have any advice but I really hope something works out for you♥
Didnt you kist get a new dog a couple days ago, uhohstellajean?
Are they house dogs? i dont think u should get rid of them when the baby come they just might have to be outside bc you never know what the baby is allergic to. Also i see you stated you sign up for housing i did the same thing now i just moved back in with my parents cause bills will add up. I know you might not want to hear this but dont be in a hurry to get out bc you all had a fallen out just really sit down and talk about it n explain how much your dogs mean to you. Always remember you need ur parents
Shawna if you've no answers to my question- stop commenting.
Thank you for understanding and being reasonable MommaAce.
I understand why gettin rid of your dogs are hard because you've raised them & become attached to them, they become your kids as well. I have a best friend who has a dog tht she considers her 1st born & her actual daughter as her 2nd child. As well as myself, I have 3 dogs tht I call my kids because I raised them from babies now tht I'm pregnant, mason is considered my 4th. As far as the ppl with negative cmnts, y'all should jst leave this post.
Im not telling you to get rid of your dogs, but, im am pregnant with my second baby and i had two dogs, circumstances all pointed to me getting rid of my sweet pit bull, and after months of not wanting to, i did. It was very sad. I cried a lot. My daughter still asks for him. But hey, we have a place to live and our situation is easier now. I wish you luck and pray the path you choose takes you where you want to be! :)
didnt you just get a new dog yesterday?
Whether you pay bills or not you don't own the.house so you have no say. Its like renting an appartment. You pay.fir everything but in the end you landlady says if pets are aloud.
And you are clearly considering shelter. Which I don't see how that is putting ur baby first.
I clearly stated on my post that getting rid of my pets was not option. I want answers not speechs. I pay bills here just as much as they do and I feel like I have a say so. Especially if they have no valid reason to be asking me to leave. Therefore, all comments about "unusual" for me picking my pets over my child or me being negligent will be ignored. I'm not choosing my pets over my daughter. That's over the top. But if I can't find a valid reason to let my pets go, because, yes, some of us DO love our pets entirely makes it difficult then I won't. I've rescued animals for years. So I have a soft spot.
Shawna, get off this forum. You're making it seem like I'm negligent over my daughter because of my pets. I love my animals and if bad comes to worse I will compromise if and when my daughter is in danger or at a health risk. Otherwise, I asked for advice on my options. Not a sermon on parenting skills.
Have you tried talking & discussing it with them with out yelling? But I sort of agree the fact that you would rather put your own child at risk & move in with strangers or stay at a shelter instead of getting rid of your dogs is a little unusual, at best.

"by shawnastone,
Its an issue to ur baby because you rather live in a shelter home rather then a home with people you trust and know. Its sorta sick."
Okay, how is that sick? They're options. Call it sick when I'm under a bridge because I want to be.
What I said wasnt to much. She needs to start thinking what is best for get future child, not her animals. Living under a roof with people you know and trust or under a roof with someone you hardly know...
They're good dogs. They eat when I do. They sleep when I do. They follow me everywhere. They only bark to strangers but don't bite. My dad is 78. He's become really unfair and unreasonable and I can't help but think that's it. And my mom finds it rude that I have a say so because I do pay bills here. So.... I'm stuck.
^^ that was just a lil much I think
Is there any way of negotiating with. There must be a reason they don't like them. Are they not well house trained or do they bark. They are not gonna just not like them for no reason.

Btw, I have a dog of my own. So I understand but I also am 37 weeks pregnant and I already got a mind set on puting my baby first. If by any reason I have to get rid of my dog then I will just so my baby is in a good healthy living environment.
I don't know why my babies are an issue for them. They've never been. I pay light and water in this house. All they have to pay is their own personal stuff. I take care of my dogs and feed them. So... What the heck? It's caused many many fights and I'm really just angry all the time. I applied for housing but the wait list is 2 years and they don't accept pets anyway. And there is no maternity shelter near me.
The way I see it, is that you have two option. And I would pick the one that is best for your baby.
Option one; keep the dogs, move into friends or some where, where you hardly know the person and could possibly put your baby in danger .
Opition two: get rid of dogs and stay at your parents where your trust them with your child...
Why all the sudden do they not want your dog's livinf there? I have 4 dogs of my own so I know what you mean.
