I personally would not go with a puppt. The strings can get tangled too easily.

Yes, we have been devastated with the loss of Enzo. We were very sad, but now we are sad and angry for what has happened. We are taking all of the proper steps towards getting this so called "trainer" put out of business, because there are other dogs there who are not being properly cared for and this guy needs to be exposed. And people need to know not to go to him for services. We will not give up until there is no more services put out by this guy. He is a scam artist and liar.

We thought about it, we were concerned with our 8 year old male shepherd we have, how he would of reacted with another strange adult dog coming into the house. We almost went with a adult dog, but backed out due to our other male. Not that he is animal aggressive, we have just had good experiences in the past with him and bringing pups into the house, he is very good with them.

Forgive me for being blunt...
Something is not right here. If had so recently lost a puppy/dog there is no way on God's green earth I could be out shopping for a new pup, while talking to lawyers, while talking to trainers, etc...
I lost a son four years ago and while VERY different, it is applicable. Sincere, honest grief takes time.
You are not grieving, in my not too humble opinion.

Everyone looks at loss differently. I suffered a terrible amount and I still am. This happened very unexpectedly. I actually did want to wait a while before we decided to get another, however my fiance did this as a surprise in hopes it would make me feel better. Once I found out he has made a BIG decision without my consult I actually was quite upset with him and then went further on into looking into what he had got us into, which hopefully turns out to be a good thing. Sorry you took to this the wrong way. The only reason lawyers are involved is because I think this guy should pay for what he has done and be exposed, but most importantly be shut down and people need to get there dogs out of his training facility. So sorry to offend you. Take care. Good night.

I'm not offended. No "PC" here in any way. I'm annoyed on the verge of angry, but that is MY issue - not yours.
If my husband had told me within a few weeks of Adam's death that he wanted to adopt a child, I would have suggested he have HIS head examined.
But I guess as long as you feel better, that is all that is important.
With that said, if you do adopt a pup, I'm sure many on this forum will offer all the advice and support you need.

So sorry for your loss.
I was quite angry with my fiance as well. It actually made it worse before things got a little better. The anger part was towards this stupid trainer guy, he simply neglected my beloved dog. He just needs to be exposed and I have finally accomplished my gaol and that was for him to be exposed so this does not happen to someone else's pet. That's where the anger came in. I am doing better, now that we have justice. But I thought it was too soon as well, He however thought it would make me feel better and keep my mind occupied. Hopefully it works out. Take care

Hi Alyssa,
Pups that lived with you or were just visiting? I know of the tragedy you experienced recently but did you have other pups too? How many dogs do you have?
You sound really eager and excited but another major change to your pack so soon is probably not in anyone's best interest especially since Enzo's death has not been resolved.
Also, I work in rescue and a dog acquired without total agreement between the whole family has an even greater chance of not staying in that home. As kind hearted and helpful as your fiance meant to be, now is not the time. Have you spoken with the breeder about your hesitation? I'm not sure how much of a financial commitment your fiance has made but talk to the breeder and see what your options are.
Hopefully, you are not offended but from your explanation of your original reaction to the new pup idea; I think we're probably on the same page.....

Hi,
I was not expecting him to do this so sudden. Like I mentioned before I know he did this to make me feel better. We are actually still discussing the fact that it still is too soon. We have a 8 year old male shepherd now. I did mention to the breeder that I was still a little unsure about getting a pup so soon, and he said he understood and if we decided to wait then he would not be offended. And I agree, that the whole family should be involved in such a big decision.
