Really looking for some advice.

So I have 2 chihuahua dogs. I have had them for 2 years now. They're my babies. They're not convicts or rapists. There's bigger issues out there and my parents refuse to let me keep living in this house because of them. I am 4 months pregnant and I don't know where to go especially with my dogs. Baby daddy isn't an option either. He's out of the picture. And I go to school and don't want to leave it. I don't know what to do. I need advice. And please, getting rid of my pets is NOT an option.

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.
