Suckey Situation


Well Nathan had a Dr's apt last weekend and the Dr feels confident that Nathan does in fact have asthma which is being triggered by some allergy. Being that he is too Young to actually be tested we can only guess. The most obvious guess is the dogs so I took the kids to Medicine Hat for a few days, to my mothers dog free home. My mom is allergic to dogs so there has never ever been pets in her house at all as she has had it since new. We took Nate off his inhaler to see what would happen. Nate didn't cough at all. He was completely clear. As soon as we got home the coughing started again, along with a stuffy nose and a lot of sneezing. So it is a pretty safe to say the dogs are causing this. So they have to find a new home for them. Meggie our 6 yr old lab cross is having a trail run with Fred's sister and brother in law. Hopefully there dog will take to Meggie! We have a couple possibilities for Buddy but haven't made any decisions yet. THIS SUCKS. I wasn't allowed to have pets growing up so I have been very attached to the dogs it is so hard to let them go. We are really hoping to have them with people we know so that we can still see them.

Im so sorry to here that. Dogs become so quickly part of the family and I know that this will be hard to do. We will be thinking of you

That's just the worst thing but I guess your "test" proved you were correct. So sorry for you - hope you find good homes for them.
